Jobs it appears are like buses you get sod all and then two come along at once....
I have looked at the pros n cons of both and I am taking the one with less money but nicer hours. So no more late's or weekends for me for a while anyway as I will begin a new adventure - I'm not aloud to tell you what I will be doing as its a secret lol - no really I can't say but I can tell you its a totally new field for me with no selling at all! That's the best bit I think I must of wowed them in my interview as I've never done anything like this before but I think my daft sense of humour may have helped, when I was asked how I would deal with a challenging customer I replied I always swear at them this bought the house down and I think it sealed the deal.
So far after my adventure in hobby craft I have made the grand sum of two pom-poms! Not a lot no but a beginning I think and they look great sitting on top of my chest of draws. I just now need to think what I can do with them - I may well leave them where they are as they are kinda cute if a little impractical.
The worst thing to happen this week involves Horace our Bengal-cross male pussy cat who we both love so much. This week he has started earning his keep at last - the day before last I was watching 'pointless' on TV when in he walked in to the lounge complete with squealing mouse hanging out of his mouth. It wasn't nice I will tell you! He dropped it on the floor at my feet and it ran under the sofa and out the other side and into our hall. There is something about mice that turn me into a complete girl! Hysteria central I was as Horace chased this poor creature up and down the hall. I sat on the sofa legs above my ears (not easy at my age) whilst I dialled everybody I knew who could rescue me, until I found a kind soul who appeared 10 mins later. He turned up on my door step with a tea cup and saucer? Something I still don't understand and he proceeded to try and rescue the mouse. Unfortunately he wears a knee brace which squeaks when he moves so I was actually close to tears by this point as I was unsure what noise was him and what was the mouse! I can actually hear you all laughing!! It wasn't funny. The mouse escaped into our skirting board and I half expected him to wave as he vanished but - personally I was glad he had. My friend then said his goodbyes but I spent the rest of the evening with one eye firmly fixed on the floor. I still don't understand why he bought a bone china cup and saucer? I forgot to ask him in all the mayhem - He is funny really.
I am relieved I have secured work - honestly I am but I really am enjoying being at home with my cat and my house is beginning to look clean again. I've done my wardrobe as I wanted to - I've sent at least twenty bags to the charity shop. I've dusted hoovered and polished everything, even taking down the nets - it's kind of like living in someone else's house at the moment as its so clean. All I want to do now is the bathroom - so 'in a bit' I'm off to our local DIY store where I will look at the different colours 'again' and bring home patches/tester pots so Jon can refuse them all and ask for duck egg blue AGAIN the answer will be no of course and we will wait another 6 months but I am going to try...
Wish me luck
Today it's been a cold day with a touch of humour x
