Christ.... what a week.

I know I only updated my blog this morning, well ok, yesterday morning if you want to get technical, but I still class it as this morning as I haven't been to bed yet. Granted I probably should as I've got to get up in about 5 hours time for work.

First day back at work for a week. And what a week it's been.

 

I've already mentioned about the big 2 hour futniture move yesterday (Saturday) move with me and dean, piled everything onto the luton van I'd hired and droped it all off at storage and returned the van all in under 2 hours actually, that's quite a mission.

 

I've almost finished. I've almost finished clearing out and tidying up a 3 bedroom house all by myself. I've been the one cleaning out the house, ringing the utility companies, council, home insurance etc.. I've been the one settling all the bills, packing all the stuff that isn't needed, cleaning every room, wiping down every surface, hoovering every floor, half the time with my 2 kids in tow which has made it even harder even though I love them to death.

 

But, we're almost done, I've almost finished thank christ.

Had a good day today, took my two little monkeys swimming with my friend Jo this morning who my children seem to worship the very ground she walks on which is great for me as I don't really need to do anything apart from smile and nod where needed lol. We then took the kids to Mcdonalds for lunch and a play in the park, then there were tears as Jo had to go home, least of all from me as I realised I now had to look after the kids by myself for a few hours ;-) lol.

 

Had to drop the kids off at 4:30pm at the mother in laws house which was fine, however don't now get to see the kids now will wednesday which is a bummer but at least it gives me a chance to finish the house.

I dropped the kids off and went back to the house and turned into the tazmainain devil and blitzed through that place like an american football linebacker on crack, binning and hoovering and packing everything in sight as I realised I only had 2 more nights before I had the children again and then I'd never get anything done.

With any luck I will get the house completely finished and then for the first time in 2 months I'll be able to relax.

 

Not strictly true though I have to say, on tuesday afternoon I went with a friend to somewhere called box hill, which over looks dorking, some of the most beautiful views I've seen in years, wonderful, can see for miles, was so relaxing and peaceful, I really, really didn't want to leave, but I had to, but will be going for another look at beautiful scenery again as soon as I can!!

 

On that note ladies and gents, I better put my pen down, pack up and go to bed 'cos I am knackered, had such a busy day and have to get up for work in oh, about 5 hours, which isn't brilliant, esp as it's my first day back in a week.

 

Stay safe people and remember, beautiful views are everywhere, just remember to open your eyes properly!!
