This weekend has been a mixed bag. Up early yesterday to get sorted for the first game of the season (Under 7's) to find half the kit was missing. Madness ensued until 10.00 am. Nice journey to Winwick(Otherside of Warrington) only to loose 3 parents who thought we were playing in North Wales rather than North Warrington. We ened up getting beat 5-1, Kids were gutted. Then Utd got beat 2-1 (Less said about that the better)

Today was marginally better. Windows decided not to play at all so I have spent most of the day trying to reinstall Vista. In between that, been to Mothercare and Babies R Us looking at some new stuff for the Nursery. I am sure that every single family was out in the two very stores today. Alexander decided he wanted Risotto for tea, so an epic journey around 4 supermarkets ensued. Asda, Morrisons and Sainsburys were out which left Tesco. Got home to find the chicken had not defrosted. Off to the freezer for the last bag of Quorn piec............Mince. No pieces which meant no Rissotto. So a rather bland weight watchers curry for me and Pizza with home made wedges and salad for Sarah & Alexander.

Other than these minor mishaps, not bad weekend at all

Got shepherded to Cardiff by the police yesterday to watch Bristol City play, a good day out inspite of the "bubble."

Today I waited for the sky plus man to come and fit my sky plus, spent the next hour randomly pausing and rewinding the tv just because I darn well could.

Parents popped in to deliver the dishwasher I have inherited from my late Grandad, only a ickle one, but when its all plumbed in I will be a happy lady!

Went to do my shopping, Mum kind of knows about my current financial troubles, so she gave me a tenner towards my food shop.....unfortunately when I took my list out of my pocket, I also managed to lose the tenner. I reported it to the shop staff, they took my details, but they said I would be highly unlikely to see it again.

This got me thinking would I hand in money I found lying on the floor in a shop, even if it was just a tenner....I decided I definitely would yes due to how I now feel having lost one - ok its "only" a tenner but that was about half of my weekly shop I could have saved this week

So mostly a good weekend, apart from losing a very much needed tenner.
Grrrr!

This weekend has been sexeh time!

Yesterday I dragged the bloke to see Wall-e which he liked, and I blubbed through. Again. He was very good and sat until I'd pulled myself together again after the credits.

Today I saw him off at the station. And blubbed. Again. Won't be seeing him for 2 weeks.

As mentioned above, I went to watch the racing at Silverstone and got cooked to a crisp. Seriously, I look like I have been standing inside Chernobyl

.

Had a fantastic day with lovely people and seriously got the horn over some really nice exotica like Zondas, DB7+9 and watching an Audi R8 and an RS6 battle it out with a Corvette C5 and to top it all off, watched in awe the flight of the magnificent Vulcan XH558. Ahhh, what more could I ask for. Well happy.

Been up to this that and the other this weekend. Nothing too specific, just general sorting stuff out, fiddling on guitar and so on. Played electric again at church this morning.. I am so not a lead guitarist, not at all, not even slightly. Decidedly average playing, though one song went quite well from my end of things.
Other than that I've been carrying on with watching Babylon 5 (Season 4, and I think it's disc 3 just finished, so that'll be posted back to lovefilm tomorrow.)
Been playing a bit of Magic The Gathering Online again, not played it in ages. Having to catch up on some of the new abilites and rules, and discovering my deck is harder to use succesfully. Generally winning matches, but I've been coming across some extremely bizarre but effective tactics.

Ragdolls Blackstar

Yesterday (Saturday) I felt like death and spent some time in A&E. All fixed and sent home to rest, thus avoiding a day working at Harlow. This part of the day was a Good Thing. Slept all day. Took kitten to vets as he has the start of conjunctivitus. He has gloop to go in his eye.

Today (Sunday). Felt 100% better if a bit washed out. Spent the morning doing house stuff, generally nagging people to clear up their toot and making people do homework. Went shopping for a coat for daughter no 1, a memory stick for daughter no 1 and a bike brake for daughter no 2. Bought them all MaccyDs for a nice whilesome Sunday lunch

Work at 3pm...hummed and haaaaaed as to whether I should go but I'm AOK. Glad I did, great shift. Bit of argy bargy and did some Good Deeds.

Home now and trying not to think about the school run in a few hours.

Saturday, messed about doing bits of housework, did some washing, started packing ready for going to work on Tuesday. Watched a bit of telly, had a mahoosive steak and some wine for supper and played a bit of Unreal Tournament. Didn't get to bed until gone 2.

Sunday, got up late did some more washing, watched Neverending Story on the telly. Went to Laus (chinese buffet) with Kelleeeeeeeeeee, then went to pictures to see Hellboy 2, then went for a couple of drinks, came back home and watched old episodes of Drop The Dead Donkey into the wee small hours.
