How is your day going?

Anyone watching the Budget count me out

We have a workshop. Ours were the busiest.. two people. Had to deal with a lot of people. Two people. When the rest of the facilitators have to deal with almost none. Problem is they got paid. We work for free. .I really feel used. Like cheap labour only we do not get pay . Not a penny.

I simply do not want to get angry not stressed. But only after a long two hours they said .. you did great.... Some other facilitators who did not get paid. They stopped coming... I am not sure really. Even dogs get a treat..

Well that’s them ready to go back outside to be potted up! Proper Isle of Arran Oak Whisky Barrels.

Been running round like there is no tomorrow with parcels coming to the front door. Just hoping the drain un blocker is gonna work as I’ve been noticing a foul odour when I’ve been opening the bathroom door, despite an air freshener being present. I’ve shoved some down the kitchen sink and bathroom sink. Then put some in and around the silly shower drain. It’s one of those idiotic pump driven drains!

I want a dog that’s not gonna bark a lot with me living above an elderly neighbour and with cats and squirells around the area I live. Dog would be able to go on a long line or lead on the grass at the back and down on a field near where I live or I’d find a secure dog field.

I can imagine id feel the same fine line between voluntaring and being overworked

Thank You all for your kind words, I’ve never thought about a Bichon 🤔 will have to look into that for sure. One breed I’ve contemplated as well is a Corgi, there is something special about them, I also have a memory from childhood that my late Grandma and Grandad used to have one.

I’m just glad the old drain cleaner has sorted out the all the drains, especially the foul smelling shower drain.

I’ve just cleaned the kitchen and sorted out the recycling to sling it out tomorrow morning. Before I turn my stairs into a bob sled run with the barrels on cardboard with me on my stair lift. Somehow managed to stretch 500ml of clear varnish to two barrels, will spray them with a good dose of spray lacquer tomorrow. Done a fair bit today, I’m still 50/50 about going watching a film on Friday. It’s times like this that the silence in the flat bites its hardest.

I’ve just sent an email to an advocacy place in Derby and just reading through and editing what I had sent to another out of town advocacy place, has really dropped my mood through the floor big time. Just honestly feel shocking, going to take myself off to bed soon and sit up watching something on the iPad.

I’m just gonna say goodnight to everyone and will see you over the coming days.
