1. Hubby has been doing nights this week, good for peace and quiet and control of the remote, but haven’t really seen him for more than half an hour at a time all week. The other problem is that he doesn’t finish till Saturday morning so no doubt he will be tired all weeked.
2. The traffic situation gets no better, there seem to be numerous accidents and breakdowns on every road I need to go on every day. Perhaps because I feel tired it feels worse.
3. There was a definate draft coming in through the air conditioning / heating system by my desk the other day that gave me a lovely stiff neck. Turning your whole body to look at what traffic is coming is as much of a pain as the neck itself.
4. I have started the action research work, but need to put some serious time in this weekend.
5. Speaking of which, joined some kind of academic group email thing to get to know more about action research. Trouble is it is filling my inbox with things I don’t even understand! Think I will have to leave that particular group!
6. The dark evenings are definately with us now, which makes the journey home even more tiring. We have had some lovely sunny days though and the trees look great!
7. I’ve got some new contacts, which are giving the opposite effect to the last pair - good distance, but less good close vision. Think I am going to have to get those varifocal glasses. It’s official I am old!
8. Still doing washing up as I have been too lazy to get the dishwasher repaired, or more precisely I haven’t got a clue when I can be in for it to be repaired. No actually it is laziness!
9. Everywhere is getting very Christmassy and I am all for that, after all it is only a few weeks away. But please we don’t need Christmas lights to be switched on on November 2nd. That is too early in my book. Plus they closed the roads near my office and everyone had to go home early (maybe that is not a bad thing).
10. I have been having organic fruit and vegetables delivered every Friday and am getting to try all sorts of great stuff. Being a Brit though, what do I do with the pumpkin?
11. Everything at work has reached fever pitch with people having daily crises (including me at times). I long for it all to settle, but don’t think that will happen any day soon.
12. I need to do some serious housework, do you know I don’t think I am cut out for cleaning, I am meant for better things!
13. The cat is nuzzling my feet and wants to be fed, so that is my 13 for now!
