Well I am a bit all over the place today - am going to Reading tomorrow to just be with Alison and the kids - the kids were told last night and their reaction has upset Ali even more - however kids are tough and will cope - especially once they realise that it just a change....... Ending up talking to Andy (the husband), phoned to make sure she was okay and Ali just put Andy on...... I got him laughing so that was something. Then phoned parents to find out one of my Aunts has died (well she was 90!). And on the way home this poor woman threw up (right into the lap of the guy next to me), luckily I carry tons of tissues and a spare plastic bag and mouth wash - so between me and her boyfriend we cleaned up most of it (poor thing was just so embarrassed - I know I would have been too) and I got them all laughing with tales of me and throwing up after Rose plus the fact that I was prepared (I thought getting them laughing would ease the tension and it did - Go me!). Ended up missing my stop but it was not too difficult to get home from Catford. Just find it amazing that basically everyone just moved away and ignored the situation - like we haven't nearly all been there done that!!!
Have had to cancel this weekends date to be with Alison - but that's okay - he'll just have to wait (explained it all quite nicely to him and he is very understanding). Oh Well!!!
In other news - well there is not a lot of other news - I am having to redo the VAT returns that I have done (having spoke to the VAT helpline - who have changed what they told me earlier...... sigh) and am currently just coding up all of this years expenditure to produce a set of Management Accounts...... All to be done by the end of the day - might be another late night.
And there must be other things but brain hurts.
