I haven't updated since well before Christmas, but I have been reading and keeping up with what everyone is up to.  I've also been updating viki_101 with my mission 101 tasks - so I'm lurking on the internet somewhere!!

The last couple of months has been very busy - Christmas came and went in a flash.  It was great to have some time off and see my family.  ( Read more... )

Why is it that when I'm on a healthy eating kick (not a diet, not a diet!), my sense of smell seems to become far more acute??

I have found that on my morning walks to work there are three 'danger zones' -

1:  the Pret outside Holborn tube station, which wafts the smell of the pies cooking for lunch time
2:  the 'Salad Factory' which makes bacon ( Read more... )

I wish I had the energy to write a proper update.

We've been in the house 3 weeks now, and haven't achieved much more than unpacking.

There was a bit of a disaster with the old washing maching left by the previous owner, which resulted in us spending 3 hours of a (weekday) night up to our ankles in 3 inches of water throughout the kitchen and ( Read more... )

I've not written for ages despite the fact so much has been happening but it's all go go go with getting ready for the house move ( Read more... )

So, where was I? Hmm, well we had a fairly busy Saturday. First a house-viewing at 10am. New estate agent, new area. After a week of mostly sunshine, it rained on and off all ( Read more... )

I’m probably going to regret spending work time on typing this, as I’m really busy at the moment and there are several hundred other things I could be doing, but my concentration is shot to pieces.  Also, the afternoon is dragging because I am not keeping myself busy and allowing my mind to wander, so that’s another reason I should just bury ( Read more... )

I'm so tired - it's been such a busy weekend!  Other than a brief couple of hours where I was browsing the internet wondering what to do on Saturday afternoon, it's felt like we've been in and out of the house non-stop.

Saturday morning we went out to Brent Cross as I wanted to check a couple of shops for things (nothing interesting, moisturiser ( Read more... )

I'm sat on the sofa in the living room and I got the netbook out to write an entry, but now it comes to it, I can't think what I want to write - a very busy day at work has left me a bit brain-dead this evening it seems ( Read more... )

Can't believe it's Monday again already ( Read more... )

It’s been a really busy start to the New Year - work pretty much picked up from where I left off, with a whole bunch of added extras and no chance to ease back in gently. I’ve been rushed off my feet and haven’t even got around to some of the new work that was allocated to me while I was away. As of today the initial work on the hell-file should be ( Read more... )
