I have totally gone off my story – 2669 words into it and I have gone of it – I even wrote an intro to a new story this afternoon on my mobile. I totalled it up about 500 words!!!! scary ain’t it

So now I am home – I have paper all around me as I am supposed to be folding news sheets – don’t panic I will get on with it.

Chris came in and told me he needed the computer so I had to disappear and entertain myself. So I have got a job and on my second attempt to write this post I am once again going to run outta time! Going to wrap Part Two of Karen’s Present before Steve arrives to go to Karen’s birthday Party. Wahoooo!

My Friend Martyn loves rock music and so really likes Linkin Park. Even his Mum Wendy has taken to listening to Linkin Park well at least this track! She got very excited about it yesterday and just had to play it to us!

This morning I did my second morning in the office at church. I then went to my interview at the PCT (Primary Care Trust) it went ok but I didn’t get it (Mainly because apparently I didn’t make very much eye contact and everyone was better than me lol).

Anyhoo I went to my Mum’s to do the cleaning, I had to dash off for a little while at 3pm but then I  came back to finish. I have been waiting for Mum to go out so that I could do the bits around her office (she sometimes gets distracted when I am around now lol.)

At half 4 I got a phone call – I have a job!!!!!! I need to go for now but I will be back – for now let’s do the victory dance!!!!!!

So when ever i hear this song or Somewhere over the rainbow (either the Hawaii sounding one or Eva) I remember Kewey – she is my best friend in the universe. I know that whatever she is upto if I have problems she will drop stuff or take time to listen. Last weekend Chris dropped everything to go and see Tom (his friend from uni) Chris spent like 15 minutes trying to justify his actions – He didn’t need to because I know that if it had been Hannah and I had to make the choice I would have been in the car to Mansfield either Friday night or Saturday morning just like Chris did (he would have gone Friday but we had youth and Tom had work).

So today was as bad as yesterday. It was a little busier but I still didn’t know what to do some of the time.

I was nearly ready to go home at 4pm What was I supposed to do for half an hour – I’d already read all the magazines that were in reception! What does the normal girl find to do all day? lol

Anyhoo so I sort the mail and at 4:25pm head to the HR lady and say I’m off now going to take the post on my way out on the door – so that by the time I get back to reception it’s just about 4:28 and by the time I get to security it’s half past. Thats my normal routine. Well I go to see HR Lady and she says she you 2moro – I respond along the lines of erm no when I arrived on Friday I was told it was only for two days while Reception girlie was away. Well that caused a stink and I upset HR Lady and Guilia (Julia to you and me) at BlueArrow because I had organised stuff for the rest of the week having been told that I was only in for two days – hello my interview tomorrow has much more relevance to what I want to do than working as an admin assistant/receptionist at Argos.

I got to Mum’s and got a phone call from Guilia who seriously peeved at me. So I explained what had happened and that actually no one was clear or what I was doing and for how long so when it was “confirmed” to me on Friday I decided ok maybe Guilia had the wrong end of the stick and it was just for two days. I would hate to see the bitchy emails flying backwards and forwards at the moment lol.

My Dad phoned me and chatted about allsorts – also asked if I wanted a Modern Apprentaship in Engineering and sticking up telephone poles lol.

So the plan for 2moro is that I will be floating around in the morning and going to this interview/trail run 2moro afternoon. Then I think heading for cell in the evening I think.

Chris keeps shoving a Clementine in my direction – can I go get some Bananas from Tesco please they are soooo much nicer.

I did however write a lot for NaNoWriMo I just need to type it up and count my words lol

Sorry while I recover from the boredom that is work. Ok this job has such a tiny amount of novelty I think I lost it about 10am this morning.

On Friday I got a phone call asking me if I wanted a temp admin job with the possibility of going on to permanent. I said ok and headed for Argos Distribution at Marsh Leys (This is an OK drive in the middle of the afternoon it’s murder in rush hour). I arrived at the centre and was sent up to HR. I stood in Reception where I was told by the HR peep that I would be on reception (this was hiccup 1 – I have like zero receptionist experience – maybe a tiny bit at Wickes on the CSD). So I sit on reception with the normal girl who shows me what I would be doing etc. She then says how she’s away for two days this week and that must be what I’m covering. (Hiccup 2).

So today I show up which is cool, however I lost my interview at Vision Express because of work at Argos (my interview was meant to be Friday afternoon – I got it moved so that I could go to Argos, the lady phoned both Friday afternoon and again today – Today’s message was if I don’t hear from you today I will presume you are no longer interested – I couldn’t get back to the lady while the shop was still open and so lost my interview 🙁

So minus the inability I seem to have of getting up when I am supposed today has been a good day.

Chris went to see Tom yesterday in Ipswich, He’s been having a really pants time and needed to see a friendly face so Chris dropped everything (ok the height of our exciting day was going to be a walk to the charity shop with a bag of his old clothes but it was dropped anyway). Chris spent ages trying to justify why he was dropping our plans and why he had to go and it had be yesterday and no other day. I told him to shut up and that I understood if Kewey was having trouble like Tom has just had I would have dropped everything and been in the car or the next train to Mansfield without fail. (Even My Mum agreed when I told her).

I went into town in the morning with my Mum to try and get her a new phone. It took about an hour and a half – she thought she knew which one she wanted but then it went all bottoms up when they said the one she wanted was going to cost her nearly £300!!! Yeh I know alot for a phone! Anyway so she changed her mind decided she was getting the same as me, she was then told she’d have to come back when the next delivery came in on Monday or Wednesday. (I suggested why didn’t she just have my phone and then get a different one – ok we have done it in the past when she just started using a mobile (she got  my one, I got a new phone – she didn’t go for it anyway and so is waiting for a new phone).

Anyway so me and Mum went via my house to get my laptop and then into Simply Food for lunch (I love it the same niceness as the normal store but just outside of town with free parking it’s great!). We got posh fish cakes for tea which were very nice but I don’t think I would have them again.

So I hung out at my parents – I didn’t fancy being alone all day and most of the evening.  I did some admin for Mum which meant I got to sit in front of the TV with my Dad lol.

This morning I led worship which was good but I was so nervous – I had a bit of a bad start to the day as Chris hadn’t reset the time on the alarm and so it went off at 9:30am I was supposed to be in the church at 9:15am – thank goodness for living next door to the church.

Me and Chris went out for lunch after church which was lovely. It was a little bit busy but it was good all the same.

Then at 4pm I had a band practice for the Baptism where Two of my Girlies got baptised! Yay!

Bex and Ruby are in my cell group and I love them to bits! They both got baptised today and I had the responsibility of singing in the worship band in the service. I need to go now because it’s 11:30 and it would be good to have some sleep lol

So I have been trying to update my word count on NaNoWriMo for most of the afternoon – obviously it keeps changing as I write more but I haven’t been able to get on the website since about 6pm GMT.

So my word count at the moment is 1179 words and counting!

So today is my first official as (voluntary) Temp Admin for the church. So why am I blogging about it? I wanted to share with you while I could lol. Currently only a small number of people know that the church office is now officially manned on a Friday rather than the voicemail (I can’t say annoying as Chris did the message lol). So I am here at my office desk watching Mum’s walk back from dropping their kids off round the corner at the local school. The sun is shining and all I can smell is furniture polish or toilet cleaner as the cleaning lady has just been in.

Chris keeps hovering – I think he is concerned I don’t have enough to do or something. I am managing to find things to do between phonecalls (well ok I have only had two so far one from the Pastor a.k.a The Gibb and one from a Lady who is borrowing the Mini Bus this afternoon).

Anyhoo I am going to work and look important lol.

So this blog was going to be all about my shopping trip to Milton Keynes with my Mum, firstly we’ll start with the bad news and then have the good.

I got home and checked my emails – I’ve been dropped from one of the swaps that I was really looking forward to – I am a little down but the girl who’s running it has every right to boot me off because having read the description I am actually in the wrong. I wrote her a quick message so that she knew I wasn’t a loser – then I realised it fell out my gob too fast and that I had hit send too soon and I probably seemed really horrible and sour about it so I sent her a quick message (Poor girl would have been sick to death of me! lol) just explaining that I totally understood and I was sorry if I came across rude, mean or horrible because I don’t think I am any of them (Check with Laura, Serena or Kewey I am sure they will prove me either correct or wrong lol)

Any hoo the good bits

1. NaNoWriMo and NaBloPoMo start today wahey!!!! (NaNoWriMo – National Novel Writing Month and NaBloPoMo – National Blog Posting Month). So I have lots of writing to do!!!!

2. I went shopping with my Mum and my brother – well kinda my brother went off and looked at computer games – I got him a little catalogue thing about the PS3 so he was chuffed – I really don’t have the money to afford the real thing but I think he liked it all the same lol.

3. I got a whole new outfit – I would take a photo but I would just look grumpy probably semi to do with the bad news but then again probably because I am hungry and have a job interview at 3.

4. I bought some new slippers which are lovely!!!! They are pink and fluffy – just like Ugg Boots kinda thing – but more nicer lol.

So today I am starting my project at college, it’s going to be interesting thats for sure – lots of screen prints of different things and I get to be really creative in the process lol – pretend I have my own business and don’t just swap my creations over Swap-bot. I am writing this entry at hi-speed as I have about 2 minutes left till the end of the session and I might not have time later as we are having an alternative halloween party at church this evening.

So today was our annual (or termly I can never remember) Scavenger Hunt. It was great fun. Last Year Me, Lilliput and Xtina won against the whole of the youth group. This year on the other hand was different, it’s half term at the moment so some people are on holiday or busy or working.

So we had ten people and went for two teams (originally teams were meant to be 4’s but it made more sense to extend this to two teams of five). I decided that I would join in.

I came second!!!!!!!!!!! Yup, so against two teams of 5, Team Hannah came second! lol

It was funny thought standing down Goldington Road, trying to take my picture including different signs, postbox, traffic lights or different bits.

Then I had to go and get different ideas – I was given a slight advantage as I had my bike whereas everyone else had to do it on foot (but I didn’t have a bike lock so I still couldn’t do some of the items). Will post some of my random photos when I have managed to get my phone to talk to my laptop – it keeps having the hiccups lol.

I got back to the church at 4ish (we started at 3pm and I had nearly finished what I could do so headed back to the church (and home!). I went with Chris to Lidl, so that we could get pizzas for the youth group – It’s always so busy in there – they can have all 5 tills open and still it would be heaving. Actually come to think of it Tescos have something like 40 tills and yet they still have massive queues sometimes.

Anyway so I go off to Lidls and come back, get my last few bits together and put them in the Creche so that Chris can mark sheets and make sure that the piles don’t get messed up.

Chris asked me to cook the Pizzas, chips and garlic bread for the young people – which was easier said that done I kept catching my fingers on the doors or the hot trays. My fingers don’t hurt as much now but when I came home about 7ish they were really sore.

Hey

Ok so I am joining in with a competition set by Girl On The Rocks. The Author of the Blog is a.k.a as Karrie – and she rocks lol!

So here are my entries – from the ones I’ve looked at I think mine aren’t very good but I am trying to be more positive now.

So I am going to do my best. There are 6 balls of chunky wool that was bought to make a scarf from that me and my Mum saw in a shop.

I bought one ball of the stripy one and made scarf no 1 which was good. It had a random pattern most of the way along until about 3/4 of the way through where the pattern settled and I had stripes for about 10 rows then it scattered again and went patterned. The blue is actually one of my Mum’s balls I think – She made me a scarf a few years ago and that was the ball that was left over – I love the scarf as it is really really soft.

Last but not least the little lilac ball is what is left of the lilac that was bought to make a cushion cover – I have several squares made ready to sew together I just need to get the other squares finished so that I can sew them together!

Apparently we have no food in the house – and that a Cup-A-Soup is filling enough for Chris but not for me. OK

Well if we have no food in the cupboard would it make sense to  go to the supermarket and get some food as it’s kind of a neccersary part of sustaining live – isn’t it or am I wrong?

Now both me and Chris get seriously cranky when we have low blood sugar. RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Super annoyed lol. I’m hungry and a cupasoup is really not inviting – I could do pasta because we do have some of that oh yeah so we do have food in the cupboard its just food that doesnt work for Chris.

Had a phone call this morning – I didn’t get the job at fitness first. I was going to be a receptionist – I probably didn’t look the part – the existing receptionists were quite skinny, equal tan (probably bottled or bed rather than natural lol), nice done nails (mine are all broken because they have got really weak, and i’ve been playing guitar more).

Anyway onwards and upwards!
