Will the rain ever stop ?

I don't think I've seen so much rain.
It was my turn to work Saturday yesterday (only till 1pm) . We only had two customers - this new place is like a ghost town !!!
Went into town after work to shop but it was so busy I just bought a pair of work trousers (one size down !!!!) and a bright red wooly hat - feeling the cold travelling to and from work . I wanted a parker style longer jacket but couldn't see what I wanted so came home and went to bed for a few hours before DH and DD came back from Banbury (Hockey !)
Friday Dh picked me up from work and we had dinner at the carvery near work - it was lovely and relatively cheap, no wonder it was so busy.
Received my first Christmas decoration - need to get my booty moving and stitch mine. The cold and dark has stopped my incentive to stitcjh at the moment. I have some pictures to post but need to download them from my camersa first.Ellie did a song and dance display in town as part of an area schools initiative of 70's pop.
I won't be going to DH's works Xmas dinner this year as DS can't look after DD and I don't finish till 6 which puts me off rushing to get ready and out.

Two weeks gone already

Well , I'm into the work routine and it's okay - the long hours and bus travel is not fun so I'm still looking for work closer to home. New boss seems okay and workmates are nice. Business is terribly quiet at the moment but will pick up once people know we're here. Some trouble with local children but we've told the police. Hospital tomorrow and I start my Hep B course. Arm still sore from swine flu jab and I feel a bit 'fluey' at the moment . Got some stitching done (finished the RR at last) . It's so dark with the weather that I'm having problems seeing to stitch

So , I started work on Tuesday - buses not too bad although it is a long journey.Tuesday , Wednesday and Thursday we where just unpacking goods and putting up shelves - sorting out the shop. We had lunch Tuesday and Wednesday at a carvery - yum and Thursday we all went to the local chippy - another yum !!!!Will have to sort out sandwiches or I can see myself ballooning and since I've lost almost a stone since I finished last job , I don't want to gain!!
On Monday I start normal times (was on day off Friday). We have a busy day with the press and baloons. The Pharmacist who we'll be working with wont be starting till a week Monday.
