THIS IS AN OLD POST THAT NEVER UPLOADED...
Is it really July tomorrow?! This year is probably one of the fastest ever.





I have two pupils at the moment which is working really well so I can build up a knowledge of how to go about teaching one-to-one without feeling bombarded with new information. In a sense it does remind me of the good old days where I did actually go into schools and teach/do lesson plans etc. I get to do all this now just on a smaller scale so I'm very happy with the career move so far.





Little Miss K starts Brownies tomorrow, I'm really excited for her :-) I had some of the greatest times whilst at Brownies and Guides. It's just a shame that the girls don't get home sooner on a Friday otherwise Little Miss J could join the rainbows. But hey, she will be joining her sister in January once she is 7 :-) They way this year is passing it will be in no time at all!

Well i'm now classed as 'self-employed' which is very scary especially as I don't expect to make any profit in my first year so I have to pray that nothing expensive crops up... Speaking of money i'm still awaiting my compensation, so those of you who I owe money to (you know who you are) I think that is the money I am going to use to pay you back hopefully in full as most of the money we get now is in dribs and drabs. Thank you for being so patient and I know it must be very frustrating :-( sorry x

In other news, little madam hasn't been feeling well lately to the point where we went to out of hours doctors last night at the hospital because her temperature shot up to 38.8 after her calpol which is usually designed to bring her temp down. The verdict was that there wasn't a lot we could do other than ride it out. She has gone into nursery today as I was hoping it would be good as a distraction. Hope she is alright x

I can't believe I am no longer working for anyone and working from home, you should see the state of my house. The other half seems to think I have all these spare hours to do all the housework but I never realised how time consuming advertising is! I can't move in this house at the moment, we had a complete refit with our central heating last week and one of the silly workers knocked over our shelving unit and it's smashed to pieces so I now have no storage for my pots and pans!! grrrr They are all on the dining table at the moment.

I can't wait for the kitchen to be finished, I have so many cooking ideas and i'm dying to try them :-) One day this house will be a home, meanwhile I have to make do with dreaming about it whilst watching the home channels lol The garden is a whole other matter completely...

Anyway, I now need to figure out how to find some money to have the cats jabs done :-( x

Tis my last full day in Cardiff with Bruce, think we are going out for a meal tonight :-) should be goooood. Right now, Bruce is sat with one of her bunnies in her lap, personally i'm waiting for it to wee/poo haha! :P
We have been playing on the wii today, I discovered that there is a handbell game which I got really competative over! So cool though!
The other half rang earlier with some promising news, we now have a hospital appointment booked in for little madam on the 17th June to discuss our options with this horrible cyst. Im so happy that things are finally happening as it has been so distressing for all of us, especially little madam.
The other half is stuck at home today and tomorrow with all our new heating system being fitted. Hope it all looks alright when I get home tomorrow. I have missed the cats sooooo much, hope they are behaving themselves hehe.
It has been a very entertaining week lol ranging from us watching hippos pooing online (haha) to teaching little madam to walk and talk some more :-) We had a particularly bad experience at Toby Carvery where we arrived at 6pm, I went up first and stood waiting for HALF AN HOUR and then Bruce went up and stood waiting for another HALF AN HOUR!!! I was extremely pissed off coz I was absolutely boiling and about to pass out!
ANYWAY, luckily there was a malibu and coke around to calm me down hehe!
OMG it is going to be soooo strange not waking up at 5am next week. Im nervous and excited about starting my new venture, I am always willing for people to give me their advice so if anyone has anything contructive to say about me becoming a private flute teacher, I really am all ears :-)
Wish me luck and pray I make some money out of this!!! :-)

From the land of welsh speaking people

I am currently enjoying more time away with little madam, visiting the best friend :-) Staying away from the harsh reality that is unemployment :-( Even if I wanted a job it is probably not wise at the moment as the future predicts lots of distressing hospital appointments for little madam and this problem cyst she has on the side of her face :-(
Money is draining away and debts are on the rise :-( Not the most positive of times but trying hard to muddle my way through.
Anyway going to have to run as the battery on this laptop is about to conk out... ahhhhhhh
