Saturday, blah blah

It's amazing how two cr@ppy workdays can totally get me down even in spite of the weekend.

Hightlights of the day: starbucks has they christmas season menu on which means pecan and caramel cheesecake + after 6 hours of playing P did pass the laptop to me so i could play Simcity.

It's 11/11/11

... and not 11/11/11, bloody americans. ;)

Had a very very long day. Bad sleep, horrible morning, bad thoughts all day long. :(

It's 11/11/11

Wednesday

... when nothing happened. Washed dishes, played on laptop, knit a few rows. Yawn.

Coming up tomorrow: back to work. Arrgggh.

Tuesday

I was nervous today all day. Managed to wake up more smoothly then the last two days and also skipped breakfast in the process simply by waking up at 9:59 and eating my tea-and-toast at the teabreak-time. After that, it was just waiting for three o'clock when i had my second counseling session. I spoke a lot again but at this time we did some problem solving too. And it was soooo good that i didn't had to go back to work afterwards! I don't mind working before but having had to go back for one more hour last time, it just made it feel like i didn't even left.
I don't know where am i heading with this whole counseling thing, i guess i'm just trying to see cleaner? And also i've done enough thinking on my own, now i want to know if i did got those things right or not :)

Ah and then watched this " Man Lab" thing with James May (all those guys on Top Gear are crazy lol) and seen the most amazing animal funerals EVER. They attached cameras to balloons, sent them up , then around 30 thousand meters they blew up and the cameras fell back. I heard about people doing the same before to make photos but this was still really cool.

Monday

Done with the monday - now off for the holidays! Two days off work, laziness and housework catch-up on the list. Yes i can do both of them on the same day. With knitting.

Missed saturday

I meant to write something yesterday too but completely forgot about the blog. P was working and i had the laptop for myself all day so i nestled up in the bedroom and watched animes while slowly working through the HUGE pile of clothes that got washed in the last two weeks but never folded up and put away. Now that i'm done with that the room seems much bigger. Not to mention tidier.

Done it!!!

Done. All 40 hours. Went in five times and went back after lunch another five times. Can't count how many times i wanted to give up and just come home and crawl under a rock.
Next week i'll have two days off and my second counseling session. Lots of knitting. Lots of housework.
Yey.

Long week

If i manage to work this week the full 40 hours, without going home early or hurting someone including myself, i'll deserve a medal. Phew. It is hard.

Working days

The Black Dog can f**** off.

Together with the extra spicy Nandos marinade. Thank goodness for milk.

Last weekend

So, this was the last weekend of october. P had to work unfortunately so i had two days on my own. Saturday was ok, he went to work from noon, and i wnet for a coffee and a mini-shopping - mini coz my budget was mini too. Sunday was a bit rougher, wanted to do much more housework then i managed but i did start the christmas jumper and progressed quite a lot on it.
Then P made me watch a movie - he tries to make me watch a horror but i adamantly refuse it. I have enough cr@p going on with my head don't need some stupid scary thing as well.
So he made me watch Green Mile instead, which i was also afraid of though from different reasons. Gosh it was three hours long.
I could've cried all along if i didn't check myself but i managed.

Bye bye October

How come it's this time of the year already? I've had to look up my shawls as it is getting quite chilly in the evenings when i come home from work. I've knitted quite a lot of stuff lately but none of them for myself, except a fingerless glove i just can't get right.

The christmas jumper is progressing well, so far. I'm nearing the end of the first skein so this evening i wound up the second skein, using the cone-shaped part of my yarn winder (the one which fell apart last time i've used it :P) Better then doing it all by hand but P is adamant about me neading a proper winder. I agree. The problem is their price tag. Holy. Cow.
