Well gosh its Thursday already, I'm not sure where the weeks gone. Again its the start of the weekend, but it has been a really busy working week. I may have cut down my hours, but don't think the work load has decreased any! I have enjoyed most of the work this week, particuarly developement assessments on gorgous babies, I attended a cp conference which is always difficult and today I was given a box of choccies by a mother of twins, I have been helping her massage the babies weekly for the past few weeks. Its lovely to feel appreciated, though I have thoroughly enjoyed the massage sessions as when its twins I actually get hands on a baby instead of demonstrating on a doll! This ladies Romanian mother has been staying since Christmas and she always brings me a drink with cake and home made bicuits. Today when I left 'Grandma' hugged me, she is leaving to go home to Romania soon, but will be back in August to visit her grandsons. Grandma insists she will bring me a souvenir from Romania, how sweet of her and I'm only doing my job!
I spoke to Matt last night, he tells me that he and four of his housemates will be moving out of their current abode and moving to another house in September. Matt has a deployment with the navy in the summer for a couple of weeks, for the rest of the hols Matt wants to come to Lots. I'm under no illusion that Matt is coming home because he wants to spend time with us, but because financially it makes sense! I wonder how it will work out? he is no longer a child, so will it be difficult and I have got used to a very peacefull life, the teenage battles left behind long ago.
Were off to my Mother's this evening, she has invited her friends and neighbours from her old street in Farlington over for a drink! It was a lovely evening last night, my Mums old neighbours were very good company and we enjoyed ourselves. We walked back, it was a blustery night, but nice to walk back as it meant that we both could have a couple of glasses of wine!
Worked like mad in the house this morning and then decided to go to Gunwarfe, asked Mum if she wanted to come and as she did I drove down to Gosport where we took the ferry across the harbour. Mum found the walk from the ferry to Gunwarfe difficult as she is still having difficulty with her leg. Wandered around shops slowly and then took Mum into the Ha Ha bar where we sat on a squashy sofa and indulged in hot choc, don't think you can beat the HC there. It was a lovely sunny day, the tables and chairs haven't yet been put outside, but I remembered all the times I sat out with Janis and the time my friends Linda and Shirley were here and we had meal there one summer evening Linda and I got very merry!
Got home and for some reason decided to get out the breadmaker, haven't made any bread for ages as we tend to eat far too much of it. The bread flour was out of date by a couple of months, the yeast was in date, but hopefully it will be ok!
I have to go and collect my car from the garage, its taken them three weeks to prepare as they have been waiting for a part to arrive from Germany. it will be nice to get my little Corsa back. Steve's car is still in the body shop and will probably be there for sometime, its going to cost over £3,000 to repair it! Thank goodness the elderly Mrs David was insured!! Not much planned for the weekend, though I know Steve has some household jobs to do.............
