FRIDAY 13th

We held our enrolment day for September courses today. The heavens stayed open all day and it did not stop raining once. But our committed students still came to enrol. As a thank you they were provided with Tea, coffee and biscuits and Fish & chips dinner time. Busy day and I did not stop talking all day (my favourite past time)!!!! Anyway I made up for it in the evening and got totally pickled on those delightful alcopops...

is it June already??

well i dont know whats happening with my time but it seems like i only check the blogs on friday and i havent done it for a very long time...
my husbands birthday today i was up at 6am giving him his prezzies - men are they always grumpy???
well i was sooo chuffed he now fits in from xxl to Small and AGE 16 tshirts not size 16+
only problem i gave him a birthday card that states i will not nag him for 24 hours s*** thats impossible - i am debating leaving the country for a while as i will break that promise as soon as i see him after work...
my daughter finished her final GCSE exam today and will not set foot back in school again (only to pick up her exam results) time to work for her and a load of partying. my son has 2 more A level exams and then he will be finished and hopefully in Uni in September.
Me, i am off to Buxton next week -thursday evening until late sunday night... i am going to have time out on my own and go to a crystal weekend fete and workshops so i am hoping to come back a new woman - i am debating do i dye all my hair bright pink before going or when i come back??
i am off to the gym after work as i think hubby is taking me out for meal tonight so i need to sweat out ready before hand...
strange time for me for the last fortnight as i have met up with 3 old friends of mine - got me thinking what is going on?! as you can guess paranoia and me get on well..

Friday again waw how time flies

Well it seems to be that only on Fridays I get the chance to update my blog..... I have been so busy lately that I dont know what day I was in earlier (actually I dont know what month or year I was on earlier)!!! Been busy today updating the database - my gosh I was soooo behind..
Last week I went on a course run by Communities at One at Sandfields, Port Talbot brilliant it was. I have now started a new Blog for Amman Valley Enterprise (check the link) and met a lot of nice people who I hope that we will keep in touch through the Commuinities at One link. So much knowledge was passed to us that I feel my head is about to explode..
Anyway lets get back to my personal life - my husband and I (Ian) went shopping last bank holiday and left the two children (age 18 and 16 incase you thought of a case for childline) in the house swotting. The best was that my husband used to be 18 stone and because I am a nasty woman and made him stop drinking he ended up buying (as it did fit him perfectly honestly) a tshirt AGE 16 YEARS OLD.....
By the way (I know that I am jumping from one thing to another all the time but my memory is bad and if I dont write it down immediately I will forget) my digital camera is working brilliantly Owain my saviour fixed it last week at the drop in centre held here. But yet I am to take pictures for my site.
Also the other thing that I have gone a little bit obsessed for (fad thing it will soom lose its appeal) is the gym - Nia my daughter and I are going 4 times a week and doing a strenuous workout followed by 10 lengths in the swimming pool - if I dont tone my body soon I will be reverting to the couch eating chocolates...
I am going now to try and work on the Amman Valley Enterprise blogsite ... will write more most probably next week - bye for now xx

By the way I bought a new battery for my camera from ebay and guess what my camera still doesnt work - so anybody out there needing a new battery - IVE GOT ONE HERE...

Near death experience

My husband was in the landrover and it turned over but luckily the driver of the Big lorry realised something was wrong and reversed just in time.... Phew!!

Fruity Friday

Well it's Friday again - waw how quick time flies... forgot to do my Thursday diary but with my memory don't remember much what happened yesterday but can tell you by joining the gym I feel healthy !!! Knackered but healthy... I am drinking - well chewing my fruit smoothy this morning and looking forward to my salad for dinner. I have a lovely dairy milk chocolate bar in my bag ready as I can now have chocolate as I have joined the gym ha ha ha.. I have ordered a new battery for my digital camera through ebay and as soon as I get it I will be busy taking photos.. Owain is going to help me to a watermark background on my site today and I am looking forward to do this.. going back to do some work now will hopefully be able to add more on for Friday later
bye for now xx

Wonderfull Wednesday NOT

Well got up 6 this morning and me and the daughter headed for the local gym..... filled in the relevant forms yawning none stop - got the induction by a gorgeous young lad. Don't have a clue what we have got to do as I didn't listen to a word he said as I was too busy looking at his legs!!Went on the treadmill for 10mins nearly collapsed then the bike thing for another 10mins had a head rush missed the thing that looked like your skiing and went on the other funny bits that toned the top half of the body - couldnt wait to get out and home to shower and change... now, gone to work - blinking knackered before starting.... meeting at 10am then finish off my timetable for SEPTEMBER courses. Forgot to mention I had a white roll filled with mayonnaise and prawns for dinner followed by a large Custard slice - I can do this now as I have been "training"..... 2.30pm and I am dying to sleep but will be leaving work at 5 tonight to go straight to Swansea College to do the Diploma in Crystal Therapy - I NEED MY BED...
Tomorrow I will use different tacktics - will go to the gym AFTER work in the evening so I don't have to get up too early

Terrific Tuesday

Well the sun is shining again that puts you in a good mood before you start the day properly. Had my fresh fruit smoothie for breakfast, had my fresh healthy salad which contains spinach, pumpkin seeds, cottage cheese, mangetout etc. and to follow this very healthy regime I have had a large piece of rich orange carrot cake (well it has a fruit and veg in it!!!) I am typing this half an hour after the cake and boy do I feel sick!!
Delivering Avon tonight so I won't be home until quite late. Then I will have to start working on my Crystal Healing assignment which I am trying my best to not do!!
Will also have to remember to sort out my crystals tonight as I have college straight after work tomorrow.
Ah well 1 hour and 20 minutes to go before I am being let out to the sunshine again..
Owain will be so proud of me I have typed in my "diary" 3 times in a row without forgetting too and I have just discovered this pink page which will go with my hair- oh this gets better - shame I can't recharge my camera as I would love to start putting photos on this page!!

moaning monday

Hello there everybody - What a weekend I've had - the most exciting thing that happened to me was when I left the tortoises in the run and thought that I had lost one of them!!!
Monday and my excitement for the day is seeing Nikky the technician!!! ah bliss..
2.35pm just been to post a letter in work and got caught by a camera team talking deep welsh and asking me if I had a pension - as I told him too early to think of that (with my shocking pink hair) - and my wrinkles.. but hey I'm on S4C tonights news!!
I was looking forward in the weekend to take pictures so that I could place on my blog but my battery charger has broken so if anyone out there knows how I can recharge the battery for my Kodak Easyshare LS753 or if they have a lend of a "Plug" to charge my battery I will be eternally gratefull.

TFI Friday

3 hours and 57 minutes to go yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Wasn't in first thing this morning as I was in the Tairgwaith centre fixing their boiler yep that's right I am officially Karen the octopus!!! Few phone calls of panic from the Ammanford Centre - "can't get our emails" "what's happened to the shared folders" then had to do a Nigel Manson and drive my brilliant little Yaris back 90 miles an hour to resolve their problems...
Met with Owain who showed me on how to work this brilliant blog site waw am I going to have fun with this..... only problem I have got is a very very bad memory and ? oops forgot what was I saying - ah yes by next week comes I will have forgotten about this brilliant site but hopefully Owain will send me an email to remind me and then if anything exciting happens this weekend I will fill you in- I need to remember when I get home to get the digital camera out and take some photos!!!!!!!!
