Yes I think it's a real commitment like any career and comes with the pressures too. But, if you really enjoy it that's all that matters. My work with social services was a lot like that but I still reckoned it was good to be paid for work I loved doing.

Pretty tame compared to me today!! Glad you shared some nice cake with your mum!

I couldn't say no as she had bought it specially for me

No, you can't, just glad nobody buys me cakes!

Morning Jaffa...what are your plans for today?

 

[Jaffa Cake]

She knows I am following SW but she still likes to treat me as mothers do.

Well I'm still in bed with 1 of the cats snuggled up against me but I'll need to get up soon to go to the gym.
Its also housework day today if I feel up to it

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes mums like to treat their girls...I had two coffee creams for my girl when she arrived home from work on Monday. She was sooo stressed, she said they hit the spot just right! But admitted she'd only chow two down in front of her mum! lol

 

[Jaffa Cake]

This is what I had snuggled next to me a little ball of white fluff as she's getting her winter coat

 

[Jaffa Cake]

T'other one

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Well I never made it to the gym. I went to Asda and I felt so unhappy skin crawling not well etc I did my shopping and came home.

I did buy a new top which will do me for my fish and chip supper with the SW girls on Friday and Christmas buffet with all my husband's family at his parents plus maybe even his work Christmas night out so for £12 its fab

 

[janetelizabeth]

Your cats look like the sort that rule the house!! lol
How you feeling now?
Great you got a nice top and maybe can multi wear it too...I love functional pieces. Asda do have some nice things if we sort though them.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

They certainly do rule the roost but we don't have children so they get all our love.
To be honest not great at all but we have a fantastic weekend planned I just need to get through work tomorrow.

 

[janetelizabeth]

I hope you perk up ready for the w/e. It would be a real downer if you felt unwell.
Last day of the week tomorrow and last working day for November!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Thank you. My husband came home with a lovely bunch of pink and cream flowers to cheer me up so that was lovely and unexpected.

I just need to get through tomorrow then 4 days off

 

[janetelizabeth]

Flowers are lovely to receive...that was a lovely thought from your husband.

I'm off to my grandson's good work assembly tomorrow morning so that will mean a very early start for me. I'm hoping to arrive early so I can talk to my daughter about Christmas day...not that we've been invited. Not sure it's going to go down well but I want to get it over with.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I always have fresh flowers in the house but they are bought with the grocery shopping so it is a real nice surprise when he unexpectedly brings me home flowers as it is not a regular thing which makes it more special

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Weigh in was wonderful this morning but I ate very very lightly yesterday as I am going to a fish and chip supper with some girls from my SW group tonight for our Christmas night out

It will NOT be SW friendly as it also involves lots of bread and butter plus mince pies and the fish and chips is from the chippy !!
