The days of wine and roses

Its still early in the morning and somehow I cannot get my self into fast mode until later in the day. Must be old age slowing me down. I keep clearning rooms and looking and boxes, and thinking 'why lord, must I continue to live in other peoples home and keep packing up' Well I suppose I am lucky to have a roof over my head - although the way things are going I can just about manage it. I am not going to end up in a bedsit with one room, so if it means spending all I earn to keep a certain standard - the so be it. I shall enjoy the life that I have and live it to the full.

I went for a job interview for a second job yesterday, and got the job - 16 hours a week extra - so I shall be working the number of hours equivalent to my age :0) That should cover the extra winter fuel costs, and keep me out of mischief. (and as is is with M&S I get staff discounts on all that wine and lovely food)

Tonight is FMNH night and they do cheer me up. It should be a controversial meeting as there are all sorts of rumblings as to whether they are running at a loss. Tomorrow is the wine quiz and if I was not driving could sample loads of wine - but as my little one leaves Saturday, not a good idea because I do very badly the next day and lose great chunks of my life every time I drink.

Hei Ho off to work I go, with a smile on my face and a positive attitude !
