The last two days have been busy and restful. Confusing?
Well yesterday was another day off, to use up my leave entitlement before year end. Out of 20 days I had 11 left at the start of December. It wasn't my fault as my colleague had been off all summer, so there was no one else to cover our work. I was only allowed to carry 4 days over so I've had to use up 7 days in a month.
Unfortunately my main customer has got busy at the same time and a new customer in the same line of business have come on board and are equally busy. In addition they don't want to deal with anyone else in my company as they don't understand what is required - plus I'd only worry that something would go wrong.
So my time off has been a little ineterrupted this week, at least I have 2 days after Christmas.
Then our peace and tranquility was invaded last night by 3 members of the Wibfamily. I must say that it can be enjoyable when visitors come round - especially ones bringing presents. I even recorded Corrie so that everyone could talk, that is a sacrifice for me.
One even stayed overnight. This was a good thing as it meant that FW had soemone to talk to until the wee small hours so that I could go to bed when I ran out of energy.
Today has been very quiet and lazy(?) I've managed to write my sermon for tomorrow and have a relaxing bath with no fear of being interrupted by the mobile or Blackberry going off.
Now we have to prepare for our chapel's Christmas service - thankfully we're aren't involved - a visit to our friend near Bristol and then I'm leading the service for the "little Chapel that does" in the evening. Quiet then!!
