HatTrick, 13 September, 2013 at 09:53 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 38

I don't think I've ever started this before. Lets here about Otters' weeks!

Good: A very lazy day planned. I'm rather excited to have the whole day to spend playing my snazzy steam mop. *loser*

Bad: I am skint!

Good: I start my new job on Monday, perfect for extra time at home.

Bad: My H starts his new job Monday too and has lots of training scheduled so I don't think we'll see each other very much over the next couple of weeks.

Good (BT): O had his first full day at nursery yesterday and I survived!

    Good luck with the new jobs mr & mrs HT.

    tayto- I hope you get the water sorted, what a nightmare.

    I'm not feeling too positive at the moment but I'm going to try my best...

    Good- I'm going on a mini hen do tomorrow day, afternoon tea and then cocktails.

    Good- I've got a new gym buddy, which will hopefully make me actually go to the gym.

    Bad- I'm sad, pretty much all of the time, and I don't know how to change it.

    Good luck for your new job!

    Good: finally been given my referral for a dermatologist after suffering with acne for years. Got a cancellation so seeing them in two weeks instead of the 4 months I would have had to wait otherwise!

    Bad: Not seen an awful lot of OH as he's been working so much this week. Felt quite lonely for most of it Smiley sad

    Good - My Mum is having my boys tomorrow, from about 10am, until 1pm Sunday.

    Good - The above means some quality time with H. (I really am trying to enjoy his company more...)

    Good - After a few blanket sales, I have money to buy myself something pretty.

    Bad - Some woman didn't want to wait in line in the ladies loos, so went in the parent and child toilet. I asked if my recently toilet trained 2 yr old could go, as he was bursting, to be met with "NO, I was here first". J then wet himself, which he has NEVER done, and he was so upset. The woman then came out the toilet, and looked at J like a piece of sh!t, as he was standing there, in a puddle of wee, absolutely distraught. I nearly flew for her...

    Bad - The above upset him so much, he wet the bed 3 times that night. He has never wet the bed, this again really upset him. He kept crying, telling me how sorry he was ?

    Good/Bad - C has decided he can now walk himself to school. Good as it means he is becoming more independent, but bad as he still seems so small. Especially when walking by the high school students.

    Good - The lollypop lady stopped me on Wednesday, to tell me how well behaved he is, how polite, and that he could teach the older kids how to behave. Very proud Mum.

    Not so good this week. Work has been difficult for me and dreadful for my H (he nearly walked out) and last weekend was Baby E's due date, so that's brought sad feelings to the fore again. (Not that they are very far away)

    And it has struck me that I am going to be on my own all over the Christmas period (including Christmas day) which is never so bad in practice but feels a bit meh if I think about it too much.

    And Hattie has her pre-op (spaying) assessment tomorrow and I feel like the meanest cat-mummy in the world!

    Good bits - we had a lovely holiday last week (apart from H's boss ringing him at least twice every day) and I got a better suntan in Cornwall than I did in Greece!

    Good - Another week at work survived!

    Good - A seems to be loving nursery, she's doing new tricks all the time which makes me really happy. She copies me now too and we spent the whole drive home from nursery last night shouting "Whooooooo" really loud and punching the air (I was driving carefully too honest!). I think she will be as crackers as me very soon.

    Good - I will be spending my lunch time enjoying a free, three course meal at a posh hotel in Birmingham Smiley smile

    Bad - Aforementioned three course meal won't help me in shedding this last 5 pound!

    Lots of vibes and hugs to those having a rubbish time, life can be so unfair.

    Good: It's H's birthday this weekend and I have lots of cunning surprises up my sleeve - looking forward to spoiling him.

    Bad: After spending loads of time with H over the last month or so, his work commitments mean that he'll be all over the place from Monday onwards (until November!) and I wont get to see him very much ?

    Good: This means I might actually get some work done.

    Not sure: I'm feeling restless. I need a new project or a new hobby or something. I just don't know what it is I want to do.

    Have lovely weekends

    Mr Erin got a referall to a dermatologist this week as well! His doctor has finally admitted she doesn't know what todo with his dermatitis after numerous prescriptions and doctors appointments.

    BAD: The tenants who used to own the house we moved into next week have been letting themselves in to get their post and also stole a flymo! The estate agent and solicitor have been useless. I rang the previous owner myself and spoke to him. We are fuming! We didn’t budget for the cost of getting the locks changed.

    GOOD: Slowly but surely we getting sorted with the new house which is very exciting

    GOOD: My new job appears to be more sorted. Head off ice HR department are crap but the HR contact at the hospital luckily is sorting it out for me. Does it really take 3 months to get references for someone?!

    BAD: I am not liking the autumnal weather!

    BAD / GOOD: Working lots –l don’t get a day off this week but the money is very useful at the mo.

    BAD: A week of stuff going wrong! Including boiler breaking –but it is now fixed. But no heat or hot water was not fun. Mr Erin leaving his keys at the new house which is 100 mile round trip from where we are living now.

    I hope everyone has a better week next week. Hugs for those going through a tough time.
