Today:
- I got enough supply hours to keep me going until Christmas
- My brother is supposed to be coming home tonight
- Had a good afternoon with the mini humans, especially since I actually got them to help me with cleaning today
- Got some work done
- Had a bit of a laugh with the person I was on with today
Yesterday:
- had fun doing the food shop in morissons
- made a strawberry and banana smoothie and it was rather pleasant
- did overdue life admin
- survived the ordeal of watching the second half of the casualty episode
- enjoyed cooking dinner
- doctors is back!
And so far today I have established that I am now a grand master at the tricky task of getting an appointment at my GP surgery
- GP and IAPT apppointment went well
- All three packages arrived before I had to leave
- guilt-tripping my dad at any opportunity about leaving my cardigan behind, despite it not really being his fault
- Finn using triangular numbers in his RV
- lovely views on the drive up to The Even Norther Great North
- Being on a boat is kinda exciting even if it is not in the best circumstances
Also
-when my mum suggested there might not be a first class lounge, my dad striding ahead saying 'I will demand a first class lounge' (not seriously, one of his favourite pastimes is pretending to be incredibly snobby), which made me chuckle
Glad to see you share my triangular number enthusiasm, Jenna! :D
I feel like now I've been mentioned, I should post a thing...
- Ikea trip!
- Got some new houseplants from Ikea
- The council receptionist said she would flag my council tax woe as an urgent issue with the benefits office, so hopefully it'll be sorted soon?
- Feelings chat with TR that helped clarify some things
- I had A Bit of a Chat about things with my sister and she was pretty insightful
- Got some more work done
- Watched GBBO with comments from Fred via facebook which amused me greatly
- Day off
- Got lots of hugs off my friends mini human at lunch, and had a candyfloss cocktail
Made a beef rendang which tastes amazing (I don't ever use that word about my cooking ;)) and have leftovers for tomorrow
Three loads of washing done, which I have been putting off since the dawn of forever
Tips from work :) (have never worked anywhere before where we get tips!)
Made a dent in acquiring and filling a wheely thing with all my stuff ready for moving
Started Game of Thrones on the train to work and read some on my break, hooked already (thanks LanabananathreeshoesHPpjamama <3)
Sweet regulars
'What came first, the phoenix or the flame?'
'I think the answer is that a circle has no beginning'
- nice katsu chicken from Wasabi for dinner
- Got some new nice bras and a yellow cardi
- resisted urge to spend ALL the money in Dorethy Perkins and Primark
- Two pairs of new shoes which were needed
- Nice long talk with J about SRS BSNS stuff.
- Start my trial working in a charity shop on friday - got the job the day I applied!!
- The pharmacy had my meds ready when they said they did so I just had to pop in and pick them up rather than waiting 20 mins.
- cleaned the pan cupboard (and all the pans).
- made a bitchin' (wtf?) chicken curry which D commended me on, and reminisced about how when we first met I was too afraid to even use the toaster.
- GBBO <3
- saw a cute hedgehog video.
Moved all my stuff, new house, new roooom :)
Was thinking it would take me till Midnight to move everything, but my flatmate and her family helped me out by taking the first lot in their car. Such a big help!!! It was really a coincidence with timing aswell, as I had just arrived after finishing work when she had driven over, to drop off her stuff before she moves in on Sunday. What nice timing!)
A friend off my course came in to my work near to my shift ending (she didn't know I work there!) and we had a good chat on the walk to the train station
My boss said she'd miss having me around now I was going back to reality (uni! :P)
No Hogwarts Letter, woe! But a Hedwig to keep me company in this empty house! (till everyone else moves in!)

Yay Finn!! I wonder if I will be able to summon any member by mentioning them, or if it only works for Joint Top Stalkers! Sounds positive about the council, hope it's sorted soon (if not, you can always call the DWP at 11pm I guess!)
Glad to hear your family seem to all be on the mend Lana, must be a stressful time!
- my mum declaring over breakfast (in front of my dad) that she would quite like to try speed dating
- Laura's use of the word bitchin'
- driving home tonight it was so quiet and I love being all alone on the roads
- found out I don't have to be in tomorrow until 9 which is later than expected
Yesterday:
- Work went reasonably fast, got a few cuddles etc from the mini humans
- My training is all sorted out once my HR manager sends me the email
- Got yet more work done, woohoo!
- Spent some time just chilling out with my book
- Had a laugh with the volunteer that comes into work on Thursdays, and heard some good news so that cheered me up and I'm dead happy for her!
Introduced M to Imagine Me & You, then Joseph and the Technicolour Dreamcoat.
Had Pizza.
Realised its been 2 weeks since going veggie and it's going good.
M introduced me to a weird but cute film called Codependant Lesbian Space Alien Seeks Same.
Slept really well.
Linda McCartney veggie range on offer in Iceland.
Went and got some household-y things.
Today;
Going to see S.
Happy to see how the rest of the day pans out.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
Yesterday:
- stopped being lazy and got out of bed in time to eat breakfast and make a smoothie before work
- first day of work went well!
- there was no one in the way when a trailer tipped over on the roundabout I was driving on and the tractor with the human in stayed upright, so there was just a blockage to the road rather than mortal peril
- met up with a friend from school and had a nice time
- bought a toaster so can now eat my pop tarts!
^ was it your first day at your new school Jenna? Well done! Even more well done given the stress of the possibly-perilous-but-fortunately-not roundabout tractor incident.
Realised its been 2 weeks since going veggie and it's going good.
