Keeping on

 

I found some of these on Moonpig.com. Very good site for cards.

Anyway. Work has been ok, nothing really much to stress me out. Nick is still there and looking better as the days go by. We are catching up after the christmas holidays, which is just aswell as it's going to go fucking potty soon.

Lee has finally managed to get a part time job in a travel agents. He was getting very depressed having no  money, but it seems to be very hard to get part time work that can fit in with his college studies. It takes a bit of pressure off of me aswell as I've been supporting him with money.

Saturday night we went down to Julia's house so that her and Lee could finally meet. They've e-mailed each other loads of times but never actually met. Her boyfriend was there, as were her daughter and son in law. I was designated driver unfortunatly, so I had to sit there while everyone got pissed up. It was a good evening though. I think we are going to do it again soon.

Hope everyones well.

Belated Happy New Year

Happy new year everybody!! I hope it all went well for you. We stayed in as Lee had the flu really badly, so for once no hangover..lol. Christmas was loverly with the family, I got a really nice Fender 12 string acoustic guitar from my Mum. I've not stopped playing it since.

I was on holiday between christmas and new year, which I spent relaxing and chilling out a bit. I went back to work Wednesday just gone, and to my delight we've got a 22 year old fit lad started and I had to train him...gutted!!!..lol. He's a loverly lad and he's a nice piece of eye candy for me! He's doing the packing job, which for the last couple of months has been giving me loads of grief, as a lot of it was left to me to sort out aswell as doing my own job. I think that's why I was so pissed of with the place before christmas. We'll see how Nick goes on, but from how he's been this week, I think he's going to be ok. Natalie has given me another job to do on the computer. She's trying gradually to get me into the office. Hopefully I may be in there by April, but I'm not holding my breath.

Anyway..hope your all fit and well.

Happy Birthday to me!!

It's my birthday today..I'm 35. As my wonderfull boyfriend has put it " Your not over the hill yet darling , but your close enough to the top of it to have a fucking good look!! " Bastard!!

I went to the hospital last week for my 3 monthly MOT. My viral load is down at 40 ( fuckign brilliant ) and my CD4 count is 360..thats another 20 up on last time. Cholesterol is fine , suger level is fine, liver and kidneys all working well. I'm pleased really as I've been a bit bad with what I've been eating and drinking..but hey..all seems ok.

Last night ( 12th ) I went to see Thin Lizzy at Folkstone Leas Cliff Halls. Absolutely brilliant gig it was. They played The Boys Are Back In Town and all the usual stuff. John Sykes, who is playing guitar and singing with them is fucking brilliant!! He does this thing on the guitar , which I'm going to try and do later on on mine. My left ear is ringing last a bastard as I stood n front of the P.A. again...and I wonder why I've got Tinnitus!!...lol . I got a plectrum that was thrown into the audience aswell...thats gone up next to the one I got from Phil Cambell of Motorhead last year. Great venue is Folkstone. It's only 40 minutes from home, and the place is tiny, so no matter where you stand you can see.

Anyway..I'm off for a little beer and some wine...Well it's after mid-day at least!!

Not as Grumpy



How the devil are we? I'm better this week , I'm still having little grumbles at work about things , but on the whole it's been better, apart from today when I was asked to cancel my holiday over my birthday..they got told no!

Lee and me are going to Rochester Cathedral tomorrow night for the World Aids Day service. It's sticks in my throat a bit going because the Bishop Of Rochester is  a homophobic prick who wouldn't have it there if he had his way. I got pissed before I went last year..I wont be doing that again, as I was dying for a slash half way through and I was freezing cold. It is very sad though , thinking about the people who have died and knowing I'm going the same way. Still...chin up though.

Utter Cunts!!





Well excuse me while I get well and truely shafted by work. Natalie called me in the office yesterday and explained that it was all going ahead with my moving into the office, but I will have to take a £1500 pay cut and have to wait till fucking April!! Utter cunts!! My face must have given away that I was a bit fucked off as she asked if I was ok. To which I replied " What do you fucking think? What a load of old bollocks! " She looked stunned and reminded me that we have a polite and professional at all times policy at work. I was past the point of caring and told her to stick her course up her shitter and I didn't want to do it. She told me to go and think about it..which I have done...I must write my notice out....fuck best get a job first!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends..hope you have a good one!

Changing Jobs

I know it's been a while since I filled this in but it's been a busy time. Work has been up in the air with another 2 people leaving, thus leaving us short. Marie who used to do the packing was due to retire anyway, but she had to go early as she had just been told she had breast cancer and had to have an emergency operation. She's ok now and they caught it early and they reacon it wont come back , which is good . She didn't tell any of us about it and carried on as normal before she went, which I thought was amazing. I would have been in pieces.

On another job front bit, I'm coming off the road soon and going into the office to work in there. The aches and pains aren't going away so after a chat with my boss it was decided I could change rolls. I cant wait really, I love being out on the road, but it can be a drag and when it's cold I ache like hell. I'm doing a NVQ course in business and administration, which as I assured Lee, isn't a course to be an receptionist...cunt!!!

Anyway, that's boring old me for the last couple of weeks.
Oh here's a good recipe for gravy.
Gravy granuals, or Bisto and a stock cube, mixed with a little can of red wine that you cab get in Tesco's, then add a chopped onion up and put that in and bring it to the boil, simmer for a couple of seconds the poor it over your Sunday roast beef and eat...its loverly!!
