Oh the wonderful joy of not being at work for a whole 7 days :-D. I spent the first couple of days just relaxing and generally pottering about. Wednesday i had my driving lesson and then popped into town. Thursday teatime i was getting on a train to spend the rest of my holiday at JTs :-D
Thursday night we just stayed in and watched telly and also an episode of the dilbert video that i had got for him. Friday day we had to run a few errands and also pop to the shopping centre. I did very well and only brought toiletries and a couple of books that mom had already have me the money for. We also had to buy wrapping paper and cards for birthday and mothers day which is THIS SUNDAY for those who have forgotten.
Im so impressed but slightly gutted that JT is better at wrapping gifts than me. Although when the time comes to have to wrap up lots of things at once i will be very grateful that this is something he is good at.
Friday night we went out for tea at some friends of JTs. They are really lovely and cooked an amazing meal in there lovely home. Me and JT took the pudding. We made apple crumble. We used apples from JTs garden and i slaved ;-) over a mixing bowl rubbing the flour and butter to make the crumble. It was a really nice evening and as promised i said i would mention them in my wiblog ( hello Lorna and Neil <waves> ).
Saturday day we had a really relaxing day and then was going to the murder mystery evening at Jasons house. It was a great night. Unfortunatly my feather boa not only molted but also turned the back of my neck and my arms black ( oops ) oh and also i found i couldnt walk properly in my new healed shoes lol
Sunday we went to lunch at some other friends of JTs. Again they were absolutly lovely and they have the most amazing house. It was really nice, 11 of us all sat round the table enjoying the food and eachothers company.
After that we had to pop back to JTs as i had to pack my bag and then we went to his church. It was a really good meeting and was really good to be able to make it to church. After church we went back to JTs for an hour and then had to leave to get to the station at about 9ish. My train wasnt until 9.48pm but i was treating us to a Burger King tea.
I then got on my train to come home. It was until half way home that i realised that we had been over charged in BK. £13 for a beanburger meal, a bacon cheeseburger meal plus one portion of onion rings seemed far too much. As the meals would be £6 each as the onion rings are only about 99p. Hmmm so the lent thing of not wasting money hasnt worked. Although that wasnt my fault. Apart from the fact that i realised too late.
Anyway dad picked me up from Brum and i got home about 11.30pm. I ended up pottering on the computer till about 2am and then went to bed as i had to be at the bus stop at 7.50am to get to work for 8.30am. I got to work for 8.24am so very impressed. It was a busy but good day and managed to get everything done by 5.15ish.
Today im off again and i plan to sort out a compilition tape of my fave songs and also have a nice long bath.
