Suspension
Jay’s been suspended from work. From what he’s said, it was all just fun banter that people have with their mates, taking the mick out of each other. Some of the comments taken out of context cou...
Hamster, Wedding again, Heavy Metal Ceilidh
Every day this month I have a pet sitting assignment, which is great. A nice top up to my income since I stopped walking Roxy. Last week it was a cat called Dusty, two visits a day. This week it’...
Reflections and Folk Music
Well that was a lot of hormonal whinging in yesterday’s entry. I’m pretty sure the time of month is partly to blame for my low mood lately, bad timing for it to coincide with the non-promotion an...
The Knockback (and some Melodrama)
I didn’t get the promotion at work. My manager said to me that I seem like I would be a natural team leader, my work ethic is top notch, knowledge, intelligence etc. He even mentioned the time th...
Yet MORE wedding stuff
Sorry for just talking about our wedding all the time. Like a lot of ladies, I’ve been looking forward to my wedding since I was a little girl and now I’m actually planning it, I’m really excited...
More of the Same
More Work Stuff So we got another update from work yesterday. Basically, our new boss is going to be someone internal, Stephen. Our current boss who is leaving is going to be replaced by a regula...
More work and wedding stuff
Work So we found out at work why our boss let her deputy get away with doing no work for the last six months, wiping the slate clean and starting again. Because she’s just told us that she’s leav...
Weddings, Work and Roller Derby
All my entries seem to be about the same topics…sorry for being boring. Wedding Stuff I went wedding dress shopping on Saturday. First off, I went to a shop that several of my friends all raved a...
Who is here?
I’m just wondering who still reads me? Please leave me a note below, even if you just sign your name. I’d be interested to see how many lurkers I have ;o) I’ve set it to private notes only in cas...
Hen Party, Wedding Stuff, Fitbit, Roxy
Still busy as ever, Download Festival lasted for five days, tomorrow I have a 5k race followed by an 80s themed roller derby party, and then we’re going to see The Offspring on Sunday night! Fitb...
Holiday in Spain
Here I am again, with my monthly update. I would really love to be able to write more often but I’m just so busy all the time I don’t have time! This is a good thing really, it means I’m making t...
Relaxing...for now
Just a short entry as I’m on holiday in Spain at the moment and typing on my kindle is too fiddly so I’ll do a proper entry on my laptop when I get back. It’s been nice being able to chill out fo...
Problems Solved and Sponsored Walk
Thanks for all your advice on my precidaments in the last entry. As it turns out, both problems solved themselves. Roxy’s owners were avoiding me because they felt bad about not having my money ...
Situations...
I’ve been walking Roxy the rottweiller almost every day for the last three years. Each day I text them to see if they want me to come. Some days they’re out so they let me know yes or no. Last Tu...
Annoying Entry is Annoying
I’m a bit annoyed with the roller derby training team this month. Normally it’s Mondays for Alphas and Betas with concentration on Alphas, Wednesdays especially for Betas and Fridays for Fresh Me...
Charles Bradley and a big purchase
Me and Jay went to Bristol on Friday night to see Charles Bradley, a soul singer he wanted to see. He booked us a hotel and we went straight after work. The show was good, Charles Bradley has a g...
Horse Racing
I’ve been trying to bite my tongue but so many people are going on about it on Facebook and the rage is rising so I need to let rip somewhere. In the UK there’s a famous horse race called the Gr...
More of the same
Just talking about roller derby again, as usual. Plus boring car talk. Yesterday we played our mini roller derby tournament. We won our first game (SQUEE! I’ve now been on the winning team for tw...
Being Picked
For the first time in my entire life I’ve been picked for a sporting thing. All the way through school, I hated all the sports we did and was rubbish at them too so I was never picked to do anyth...
Busy times
I broke my own running record the other day and ran 2.7km / 1.7 miles without stopping. Sure I felt like I was going to die and kept wanting to stop, but I kept myself going with little targets a...
Random night out, plus Things to look forward to
Last Friday I went out with work and it was the most weird night ever. It was just meant to be a meal, I stayed sober and walked back to the car park after the meal. But the car park was locked u...
VIDEO of me playing Roller Derby - you love it
My exercise last month was pretty shocking. If you take out the dog walking, there were huge swathes of empty time when I didn’t do any exercise. This is my spreadsheet for last month. I need t...
Long entry is long
I don’t know how people find the time to write in here every day. I’ve had to take a day off work so I can do it. Not really, I had an audition for UK gameshow The Chase. It was in the morning bu...
Tattoo thoughts and fixing stuff
I’m bored of my job already. I’ve only been there eight months and get on REALLY well with most of my colleagues, the job is easy and the pay is fine. But it’s so boring, just the same thing day ...
Week Two and Three
I’m pleased with how my exercise regime is going. I’ve exercised every single day this year so far, except for one day. Some days it’s just been a dog walk, which I don’t really count as exercise...
