Went out.
Local shop still closed, but the tiny shop further along the side lane was open.
Forgot about this one last night.
Refunded my bottles and I got 4 litres of fresh pop and 6 eggs as per wifey's orders.
And 4 packets of crisps to cheer me up. (though wifey will have 2, i expect).
A young boy, (8 to 12, i don't know) stood in my way and blocked me from packing my bag so the shopkeeper and I yelled at him until he cried.
Feel better now! :)
Aww! Poor kid, he'll probably have nightmares now!
But glad you're feeling better!

The 'must do' stuff is now done... apart from the ironing.

I have decided to do enough shirts to see JoesDad through the week and the rest have gone to be ironed by someone else at my local dry cleaner. Life's too short!

Just finishing my cuppa and then I have 2 shirts to do :)
Hi Linda how are you? And how is your mother today? Hope you are both well.

As usual, gone for a few days and…424 posts to catch up on here in the CDR! So I'll say and I shall not tell a lie, I'm so not gonna even try to catch up on the posts I've missed. Those who've posted, please don't take it personal or anything like that. I'm just lazy and I don't much feel like catching up on all the back pages. If I've missed something important or traumatic concerning those I care for, please PM me so I'll know, okay? Thanks.
Today I had the job interview. As was expected, the interviewer and I got along swell. Last more than an hour and it was all business no football. At the end, he assured me that he was going to place me at the top of his recommendation list for hiring and he felt confident that I'd be taking on with the final company.
All of this was a very solid boost for my ego and feelings of self worth. This was my first job interview in over a year. I haven't had a job since July 30 2015. I so happy to have that under my belt and I'm so relieved knowing I've still got it in me.
Congratulations Ken, so far so good! You did have a pretty good excuse not to be working for the best part of the last year!!
I'm just glad you are feeling well enough to be up to working again and have everything crossed for you for the next part of the process.

Hi Linda how are you? And how is your mother today? Hope you are both well.
I'm not doing too badly, Gillian. The early fog has cleared and we have a lovely blue skies and sunshine to cheer us.

Early morning fog is very common where I live at this time of year. It's to do with the geography of the Medway valley. Basically the river is warmer than the air temperature overnight and it steams!

Mum is responding to text and seems happy. She's off to her doctor with my sister this evening to discuss options for minimising the risk of a recurrence. I'll phone her afterwards :)

Tea mug is now empty... No more excuses. I must iron these 2 shirts :D

Glad to hear you're well. :)

No....Oli is being very naughty. Am I to punish him? :D He won't eat, he won't move, he won't, he won't.......:( I've a strong feeling it's the extremely HOT weather, right?

Regards to Wifey and a kiss from a naughty boyfriend to Tidgy. :<3:
Get Adam, to shout at him.

Luckily, I quite enjoy it.

Glad to hear you and of course your mother are both well.

The wonderful heat wave has decided NOT to move! Temperature is about 37 degrees C, here. Wish @Lyn W was here. She would have LOVED and enjoyed it as much I do.

Nope! I would be miserable and grouchy and sitting in your fridge!

Ok Lyn,but that might upset Tidgy. Oli is her boyfriend, isn't he? Or have you forgotten?
No hadn't forgotten and your right it may upset the both of them and they probably would gang up against Adam, so we can't have that. I don't actually think Adam would shout at a tort anyway - he may just ground them!
