So, I'm diving back into the world of retail seasonal work this year. Was offered the job at my interview today. The cash will be really good for me. I'll still get my meager teacher pay even when school is out over Christmas, and I'm starting at a decent hourly wage at the mall. I'll soon be sporting a fantastic blue polo shirt at Best buy. I'm going to look soooo HOT! Store sales are going to SOAR through the roof just from people lining up to see me tuck in my polo shirt!!! ---awwww man...I hate tucking in my shirt!!! It'll show my poochy belly!!!

I think I'll need to start watching the tv show "Chuck." :) And time to use the employee discount to replace my broken down Wii.
Yay! Well done you :)

morning mum :). feeling a lot more human today thank goodness. how are you?
Morning John. :)

I'm trying to decide whether I'm starting a cold or whether it's just that I can't be bothered to go to the gym. I have a feeling it's the latter :D

Had an excellent night's sleep on our new mattress topper last night. :) It was cheaper than replacing our mattress which has started to feel a bit too hard to these old bones :D

Thanks Gillian.
It's making a turn again that puts it back on track to come here.(Florida SE coast)
The thing about a hurricane is that they affect thousands of folks.
Don't worry about me.
I'll be in my bathtub with a flashlight.
If it comes, it'll be Wednesday night/ Thursday.
Hell0 Ed. Let's just hope it does NOT get there.

Hi Gillian Lola and I are well thank you - hope the same for you and Oli.
It's not really that cold for the time of year but it was a bit of a shock to the system after such a mild Sept. to have a sudden drop at night. Temps still in the mid teens - half of what you're getting!
Good evening Lyn, glad to hear you and Lola are well.

I must have misunderstood you. I seem to have understood that it's EXTREMELY cold.

Yep, temperature still 32 degrees C in Amman! A lot for this time of the year. Everyone (except me of course) is complaining that Summer has gone on for too long. I can understand them for one and only one reason: we need WATER badly, and prayers take place each and every year for rain.

The spores may have been in the compost when you bought it.

By a fresh bag. Rinse all the soil off the roots of the plant carefully. Clean the pot thoroughly. Replant in the new compost.
