Things I have learnt since becoming unemployed

I don't think my cats move for that period either!

I'm not sure I move much during that period either...

13 degrees, oh my where are you the North Pole?????

?

Nah. i should probably splash out and put the heating on more. ?

right, i should prepare myself for the This Morning Jade Goody special...

You have done sharp observation during that period.

Haha - yes, very rock n roll ?

When I started my maternity leave in February this year I started noticing things like that too. In fact, me and my next door neighbour have become a right pair of curtain twitchers since we've had kids.

? The joys of being at home!

I have the same thing with random people parking in front of our house.

I also noticed the bunnies are back in our back garden (H is worried about the leeks and parsnips now)

Also, lots of people speed through our village, whatever time of day they are driving through.

That some people are real creatures of habit - I see the same people walking past the house at the same time every day.

I am a housewife while looking for a job and I can also provide some things I have learned

My cats do not move between 7am and 7pm

A man who works across the road eats his lunch sitting on the pavement in the main high street

An old man throws his rubbish in our garden every morning, well, until today when I asked him what he was doing

The postman always rings twice

? at the old man!

i'm supposed to be painting the bedroom, but i can't seem to find a handy stick to stir the paint with ?

I think maybe you should add 'You begin to plan your day around crap daytime tv' to the list. ?

Well it was quite a good interview actually ?

But Homes Under the Hammer is so goooood ?

When I was on maternity leave I discovered the garage round the corner use our street as an extra car park. Some days they seem to spend half the day parking and reparking their cars (we have a 2 hour limit for non residents).

My retired neighbour across the street plays computer games - I can see her telly.

There's an awful lot of rubbish on day time telly but I got really into the repeats of ER from the beginning that E4 were showing. Another channel was showing old Cagney and Laceys. I loved that programme and it was rubbish when I watched it again.

Now my daughter's older I don't get to watch daytime telly because she keeps taking the stupid smart card out of the cable box (and who thought that was a good idea for a design?!).

Why do you keep putting the link for Wii in your signature? is this allowed ? are you not breaking the forums advertising rules?

I have been a random parker in the past. I would sit outside people's houses reading a book/playing a game. Usually when I was between appointments, but I wouldn't lurk outside the appointment house as that would seem odd
