Hi All,
So, ive had a huge week, i was exhausted, 7 days is just too long a stretch to work. Anyway, its over, although on Thursday there was a small drama….. I was in the kitchen, talking to the boss, one of the other girls phone was ringing, it was really loud, to cut a long story short, i picked it up to try and quiet it down and she went beserk. I ended up hiding in a treatment room in tears, a total over reaction for me. It took me about half an hour to calm down. The girl in question came and apologised, i told her it was ok but i was going to cry, to which she said…im going to cry too!!! So we both ended up back in the kitchen bawling. Quite funny really, typical hormones/tiredness/all woman office. Needless to say, her phone can ring loud and proud, and im not touching it!!! Friday she came in with a clown wig and cracked jokes. I look up to her, she has been working there for a long time and i dont think she realised the state of mind i was in either. Just a bad day all round.
The other news i have is that Brea is moving out. She has found a house, not too far away, and they are applying for it. Im not sure how i feel. On one hand im happy for her, its time for her to go and start her new life, her independant life, her adult life. On the other, im sad that she is flying the coop, i will miss her, we have been getting on well lately, not too many arguements. (thankfully!!) I have been buying her little things, toaster, kettle, teatowels, all those things we dont think about but just expect to be there. I think she is super excited. Im not sure how things will go with her boyfriend, he is still keeping away, we havent seen him for about 6 weeks. Hopefully this will just blow over and things will just settle. I dont want to be uncomfortable, although its Dames i have to worry about, he is as stubborn as a mule.
Today was a strange day for me, as Dames and Bailey are away, and Brea took Harry to the football. I wont lie and say i didnt think about gambling, a day like today used to be a dream, 8 hours to kill…ahhhh. But i went and did some shopping, got Brea a few bits for her when she moves out, bought myself a little bit of makeup, did some groceries and came home to my heater and my flanalette pajamas. I know that if i was still gambling, i would have been out the door 5 minutes after Brea had left, and spent all day gambling. I would now be sitting here, not only with no money, but feeling like absolute rubbish, so im grateful for my exclusion and my very special friends here.
I hope you all are having a restful weekend, take care,
