Yawn Yawn, Wakey Wakey..!! MK 5

my first dy off in months

woke up this morning and thought 'sod it' ... had 2 jobs today, so postponed them

listening to music on my pc (grooveshark) , having a few beers, and cooking dinner

and I'm totally bored ....

am now thinking ... it would have been better if I went to work today as I have to try squeeze these 2 jobs in next week, and the weather forecast does not look good for the week

:(

 

I also work for myself and you do have to make the days 'work' for you, don't you.

One thing i personally never do is work a Saturday or Sunday because i like to have 2 whole days of quietness where i don't have to actually do anything - when the other 5 days are spent clockwatching all day long and driving from one place to another those 2 days are sacred !

 

even when I was in Engineering, (contract design engineer) I worked a full week and used to bring work home on weekends ... done that for over 20 years

then I done the ebay thing for a few years (full time antiques trader) ... worked 7 days a week and weekends were spent buying from carboot sales, and saturday and sunday nights were prime listing nights (list loads of items on ebay)

wife say's I'm hyperactive ... I get bored easily if I am not working

suppose if I get older, things may change ...

am seriously thinking of starting ebay again in the winter as a sideline .... as gardening slows right down ....

been speaking to a mate who will go in with me (I was 'removed' from ebay as I never registered for VAT-he will hold the ebay account and paypal account in his name) ... I used to sell 60-80 items a week

will start up slow and sell 5-8 good quality items a week ... that is one of the most interesting jobs I have ever done

 

Good morning Woo and everyone,

Yes Woo we had a good weekend but Mr Kandy said it wasn't long enough as he is back to work todayHope you are well and thta your weekend was good

Moyra,that is so bad that your landlady doesn't keep on top of keeping her property in good order but I expect all she is interested in is the rent she is raking in and if she ever comes to sell the property you will have helped her get the best price but we would have been like you and kept the place looking good.By rights she should give you a bonus for doing it for her:DMr Kandy is going to be putting down wooden flooring as well so will wait and see how he gets on with having three cats walking in and out of the house just to be awkward:D

Have a good day everyone

 

Morning everyone, back to it ......
:mousewheel:

:D

 

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the piccie WOO, very nice trying to place what it is.

Had a wasted journey taking Amber in for her spaying op this morning. The vet decided she has an infection in her throat and has put her on a course of antibiotics. £65 and that's with a pet club discount. Not worth claiming on insurance as there is a contribution required of £60 so not worth the paperwork for £5 refund.

So the spaying Op will have to wait. If the antibiotics do not cure her cough then he said after 4 days they will put and endescope down her throat to see if anything is caught on her windpipe. He suspects however that she has caught an infection from another dog.

Shiney, sounds as though you could do with some of Ambers antibiotics that cough of yours is certainly hanging on. Do take better care of yourself. Glad your trip to Daventry went ok and your visit to your cousins too, now you need to put your feet up for the rest of the day.

Take care everyone, hope all the other coughs and colds are on the wain. Have a good day all.

 

Good morning everyone,

Its a nice day here, no frost again overnight....I'm off to Toronto and a few other stops for Brad, so have a great day everybody.

 

Because the spaying bill is not payable under the insurance I dont think anyway Shiney. Never mind she is worth every penny and this may not be the end of the bills if she has to have the endescopy! We shall have to wait and see. She is laying flat out with Steve on his bed at the moment. As soon as soon as I turn the tele off and put my radio on and go to bed myself she will then join me. Talk about have the best of both worlds.

 

Morning folks
More of the same today

 

Good morning Woo and everyone,

Woo,we have Cowslips in flower at the moment and it is lovely to see yours as they are one of my favourite spring flower.We also have a small lilac out in flower which the late bees have been loving.Because it has been so mild the bees are nto hibernating at the moment.



Shiney sorry you didn't do as well this year in Daventry but I bet the meal with your cousins more than made up for it:D

Moyra,sound slike Amber has Kennel Cough and hope she soon feels better with the antibiotics ready for her soon to be op and hope that it all goes well for her and you are not stressed to much by it all.You are in my thoughts at this time and please don't worry too much

Well the leaves are starting to fall in the garden of my leaf man so went over there yesterday and gathered up quiet a few dustbin bags full of leaves and there is still more to come off of his trees so will be collecting them for a while yet for the lottie but they will make lots of nice leaf mold.:D

No rain again today although yesterday was mizzly and drab

Hope you all have a great day
