It's been ages since I last sat down long enough in front of this dear mac to do more than check a few mails and occasionally reply.
Throughout April I worked over 150 hours, mostly for the agency, which amounts to a full time job. In March already I'd done about 100h. This month should be over 130h. I'm getting into the swing of daytime hours with a month-long contract working roughly a 9-5.
Time really does fly. I've seen my sister and her little ones a few times, including them all visiting to drop Maman off before she returned south from spending a good holiday with them. Fabrice and I saw Maman twice while she was here. Both occasions were lovely calm times at my sister's but while they'd gone away for the weekend.
In between, various friends have invited us for a meal or two and a birthday party and we've visited Fabrice's parents pretty regularly. I have to say we do ok for food over here both with nice fresh stuff to buy and loads of good restaurants all over the place which are quite affordable. My cooking skills are improving no end as Fabrice finds me new recipies to try out too :)
I've got visitors coming soon from Wales and this summer from Wales and the UK. I'm very eager to see everyone :)
RIght, it's just about time to eat so I'll shut up and post this.
