Just life.

The weeks are just rushing by, the dark nights don't help, there just seems less time to get everything done.

This week I have spent 11 hours at the wheel of my car driving to appointments for work, admittedly 2 were out of county but blimey, 11 hours, thats a shocker, just imagine what I could have done in that time?

Whilst I appreciate the benefits my job gives me weeks like this I wish I were doing something simpler!

No 1 son heard back from his job application, he didn't get offered an interview, he was gutted, they said he needed more experience ! he's picked himself back up and will carry on volunteering until something else comes up. in the interim  he's going to start his driving lessons so that he can look further afield for zoo apprenticeships. 

I have done very little this week, just the usual mum/house wife jobs, managed to read a book but that's about it. I have had an ongoing headache that keeps coming and going, can't shift it at all,  not like me to pop pills but this week I have succumbed to paracetamols. Will pay a trip to the optician to get eyes checked and maybe the GP if it keeps going on. I don't think hours typing reports is helping either!

I missed the weigh in at slimming world this week, an out of county review, which meant 6 hours driving ! to be honest, I have had a bad week food wise, yet another fall off the wagon, totally frustrated with myself. I am trying to be really good until thursday weigh in with the hope of staying the same, really don't want a gain. 

This weekend has been a slow one, nothing remarkable, simple things and walking the hound locally, the weather has been awful, hubs has swept the chimney so a roaring log fire is pending, and I have a stash of books on my kindle.cosy quiet nights.

This weeks goal is to stay on the food plan , read another book and sort a pattern for some sewing at the weekend. simple things keep me happy.
