My Place

...that keeps posting stupid spammy stuff on my blog and how do I get rid of them?!?!?!

I've just been deleting them each time but other than having to keep doing this I'm not sure what to do about it.

Getting annoyed here.

But the ground was too wet for it to sit.

Shame cause it was really heavily falling and it looked lovely, I wanted to be out walking in it but have the wrong coat with me today and I didn't fancy getting told off by Hubbie especially when my chest has been feeling tight lately.

...I'm sitting in work cramping up something shocking!

So nice of my body to wait until I'm settled in work before it decides to hate me.

Going to knock a couple of painkillers in me, make a cup of mint or cammomile tea, and curl up against the radiator for a wee bit I think.

The word 'eugh' comes to mind I think.

My day is that boring I'm planning what I'm going to be cooking for tea tonight and I've already planned my shopping list for this Saturday, the next thing for me to do is sort out what I'll be buying my wee sis for her birthday in a fortnight's time, haven't a notion what to get her so will definately have to get my thinking cap on.

Am wondering whether I should go for a dander or not but it's been raining very heavily today and I've only got a denim jacket with me and no umbrella and if I got soaked I'd have to wear wet clothes the rest of the day and I'd get told off by hubbie and I'm not in the mood to listen to him!

Wouldn't be so bad I'm sure if what I had to do today was all the stuff I've been putting off for a while, naughty me , but if it wasn't today it would be tomorrow and that would be worse.

Invoices come in, I enter them onto Sage, I allocate an internal reference number to them, I attach the pink order sheet to them, and wait for a delivery docket to come in so that may be attached also. Once that is done I send them off to be signed off by the relevant people. After that they aren't my responsibility until they are returned to me signed off, so why the f*** is it me that gets all the grief, the gurning at, the abuse that I do, when it's someone else's mistake or fault for not returning the invoices to me when they are supposed to?!

Am getting sick of this.

Normally I hear everyone complaining about the flu jab hurting them every year and how painful it is and I wonder what all the fuss is about because the only thing I feel after getting the flu jab is sleepy, not sure why but something in it makes me drowsy. This year though it was stingy, very stingy going in, even my Dad who's a diabetic and is very much used to needles everyday said it was sore/stingy.

Both my sis and I are asthmatic so we both got the flu jab and Daddy is diabetic so he got it as well and we were comparing notes yesterday and we all felt the same way and that's not usually the case, I get sleepy, my sis gets a lump on her arm, and my Daddy doesn't notice anything, but this time our arms have got a lump in them where the injection went in and they've either gone hard or going hard. Weird.

My right arm feels like it's recovering from a dead arm sort of thing and it's a really odd feeling especially when I'm writing in work, but at least it's still attached and that's all that matters!

If it feels worse I'll go over to the chemist and ask some advice but until them I'm not worried about it.

Just have to convince Mummy-in-law to get her flu jab now, she refuses to each year, but this year I'll have to try and convince her to get the jab and tell her it doesn't hurt, while my arm is aching, naughty me, but it's for a good reason and I don't think I'll be told off too much for this little white lie.

Vertigo isn't something I've ever had to deal with so I'm not sure what to do to help him apart from making sure he behaves himself and stays resting which the Doctor recommends until it passes. The Doctor was probably able to suggest something to help him with this but hubbie being hubbie probably said he didn't want to take anything, he has this problem with being helped, he'd rather suffer the sickness himself and just trundle on.

He's thinking tomorrow will maybe help him and bring him out of the funk he's in at the mo, and possibly he's right, but we have to get to tomorrow 1st!

Should be a good night! Going shopping tonight for stuff to make sandwiches and other normal party foods with so can get a lot of prep done tonight and leave tomorrow for tidying and making sure hubbie gets a lot of resting because he hasn't been all that well the past couple of days. Fingers crossed he'll be ok for tomorrow night or else he won't enjoy himself, he won't cancel and re-arrange it so let's just hope he'll be ok.

...no more work force, well for the moment at least.

Strange without them and a bit quiet.

Worried for them too.

Real-life sucks sometimes.

Bestfriend just called and I must say her timing is brilliant.

Am getting it rough in work at the mo to the point where I'm thinking of breaking down in tears and she rings me, this is why I love her!

She asked me whether I wanted an Eeyore hot water bottle and jammie set for Christmas and that put a smile on my face, but did she have to mention Christmas so soon!?!?!?

Anyway we've arranged to go out for a drink and a bit of a shopping spree in Belfast on the 30th Oct when we're both off work so I've got something to look forward to, a good hug and sillyness for a while.

Must remember to ask her what she wants for Christmas or if she wants e-vouchers for Amazon again so she can get the books from her wish-list.

...and ever since we moved out of the 1st house and into the 2nd house that belongs to her she seems to be set upon causing problems for us.

Her 1st complaint was that the old house smelt of cat pee and now her 2nd complaint is that the house is full of fleas.

Does she not realise the house is full of damp, the walls are peeling and are completely black in places because it's so riddled with damp and it stinks because of that, but it's definately not cat pee she smells because my Mum and I scrubbed that house from top to bottom when we left and the only smell that was there when we locked up was bleach and air freshner. Landlady didn't walk into the old house until about a fortnight later, no windows or doors had been opened in that time so what does she expect, the house would be a bit smelly!

The 2nd complaint: if our cats had fleas I think they would've moved with the cats, don't you? Since us moving our cats have been down at my Mum's for the weekend and if they had fleas I think she would've told me, it's not something you keep from a person, apart from that my Mum and Sis always check my cats out for me to make sure they don't have anything if I'm not there to do it. Anyway, if the cats had fleas I think I would've seen them long before now, I mean we've been moved for roughly a month now, and it's not something that can really be hidden.

If the old house had fleas then why didn't she tell us after we moved out rather than waiting four weeks to announce it now?!

She's probably left the window open and a stray cat got it, there's a lot of them round that area. Why immediately blame us?! Really unfair, we've been good tennants, we've kept that house in as good a condition as possible, if that's possible with a house that's full of damp and kids who like to cause damage playing beside us.

I love the house we're in now but I'm not sure I want to live there because of the Landlady. Don't know what we've done to her.

Got a phonecall half 7 Wednesday morning asking who was last out of the office Tuesday night because the shutter was lying open, we came to the conclusion that maybe some site guys had been in the office but hadn't closed the shutter properly so that was ok, end of phonecall. Five mins later I get another phonecall, can I ring the police because we've been broken into and can I get down to work ASAP.

Now luckily enough I live two mins drive from work, I usually walk to work but on Wednesday I drove to work to make it easier and quicker. I rang the police while I was standing in my bedroom still in my Eeyore jammies! I wasn't even there but I still had to ring the police and report the break-in, how silly is that when there are four men standing outside the office waiting on me to appear.

I arrived before the police and had a nosy round but was careful not to touch anything.

They had broken windows down the side of the building and gained access through a top floor office, they made a bit of a mess in that office because there was a big bookshelf against the windows there but after that things get a little strange. Only three offices were actually messed about, the MD's, the other Bosses, and mine. The only thing missing from the upstairs is a laptop, and a dictaphone. Nothing else. My filing cabinet was lying wide open with two petty cash boxes sitting, a cheque book sitting on my desk with the bosses signature on a couple bits of paper and mine as well so they could've nicked the cheque book and forged the signatures but they didn't, a box of brand new mobiles was sitting under my desk which they pulled out and obviously looked in because they were lying on the floor but they didn't touch them at all. Why they didn't lift them I don't know.

Another strange thing they did was leave a coffee jar on my desk. We think it came from the MD's office but we weren't sure, it got dusted for fingerprints and some were found. Something else they could've nicked but didn't was a lot of alcohol that the MD keeps in his office incase he needs to take a present to someone, they moved the bottles, touched them without gloves, so more fingerprints, but they didn't take them! Why not?!

After being upstairs they went downstairs down the back way and trashed the store a bit as they went but if they really wanted to make a mess they could've done a better job, what they did was a bit useless really. For some reason the lifted the heaviest bit of equipement we had in the store and stole it, we don't see any logic in that because it weighs quite a lot and would take at least two men to lift it but they took the time to lift it and put it in the van they stole from us also. We had a van parked in the storebecause we aren't using it much at the mo.

Wednesday was a complete and utter nightmare.

The van was recovered, very little damage done to it actually which we weren't expecting, we thought we'd either never see it again or else have it back burned out.

Definately not a good week.

...we're having to lay off a lot of our site guys because there is no work for them at all.

I feel really crap about it but there's nothing we can do, we're pushing for work as much as possible but no-one has the money to spend on new-builds and that's what we mainly do. We're just going round in circles I'm afraid.

Am having really bad withdrawel symptoms. The DS can't get a minute to be fully charged before I'm running the batteryd won on My Sims or something, have stopped playing puzzle games on my DS because they don't last long enough so the Sims games it is.

Couple more weeks to go and then we'll have internet again!
