@bluey, when's your feis again? How's your sore throat?
It's on monday. I sort of know the words to two of the songs. Sort of. :rolleyes:
Throat is okay, am going around wrapped in scarf and big woolly jumper like a total diva in paranoia that this cold weather will hit me :pac:

Will try learn songs and do some more study to make it a somewhat productive evening :pac:

It was pancake who ate them all, right? Blame pancake?
Should have dinner I suppose. Nobody here felt like cooking today which is fine but neither do I... study makes one hungry!0 -
Can I join in ?
Im on sick leave at the minute. I had a mild stroke 2 weeks ago, cant drive for 6 weeks and its a bit isolated where I live, low Cholesterol foods only (so no cake). I go for a walk every day and then hang around the house till OH gets home.
Cant do anything too strenious until I have more tests to find out what caused stroke, so no heavy housework (im so upset);)
Pain in flippin face !!!!!0 -

The OH, actually! (I'm not giving any to Pancake cos there is a LOT of green food colouring and there was a warning on the bottle about some children getting hyperactive after consuming it). I was quite please cos normally he doesn't like my baking (it's too sweet for his taste) and he ate four in a row!It was pancake who ate them all, right? Blame pancake?

Mmm green
:pac:
Saw an ad for mcdonalds shamrock shakes, used to go mental for those when I was a kid. As is typical now, I missed them a number of years as we never ate McD that often. Which is a good thing I suppose. But they always looked so tasty!
Now I'm definitely even more hungry!
:pac: 0 -

And yet people eat so much Red Velvet and give it to their kids, completely ignoring the fact that there's an entire bottle of food colouring in it!
I really, really want to make cookies, or brownies, or something, but if I make them I'll eat them all Watching Masterchef last night and they had a chocolate fondant so it made me wanting something yummy. Damn Masterchef. 0 -

I'm learning to quilt. I love it. Would love to learn how to knit, was useless at it as a child, but think if I was knitting something nice I'd be enthused about it. We used to have to knit these horrible itchy acrylic squares. 0 -
Oh you quilt, me too! That's actually my main craft. I have made 3 "baby" size quilts so far and I have nearly finished one king sized quilt. Love it!I'm learning to quilt. I love it.

I swear to god, if it's not one thing it's another with my boss. Last Friday we had a drama and today we had another drama.
There has always been an agreement that if I work overtime in the office I get time in lieu, if I work overtime in relation to provincial court sessions I get time in lieu and if I work overtime (which I always would) in relation to court in Dublin I get a bonus, as it would be too difficult to calculate hours etc. because of travelling time and sometimes we stay overnight etc. so I just get a bonus. We also have a sign in and out book in work, you sign in when you start, sign in your lunch hour and sign out when you finish. This was introduced because I often take a late lunch or work late so it's an easy way for everyone to keep track.
So today, we were in court for provincial sessions. As we were driving back to the office, we were literally 3 minutes away from the office and I was thinking "hallelujah I've made it back to the office unscathed" (she normally uses travelling time as an opportunity to corner me on things, no getting away from her in the car you see!) but no such luck.
Her: Now you know we have this agreement that when we're in court you sign out at 5:30.
Me: Oh?
Her: Yes, because it works both ways, sometimes we'd finish court early and you'd go home early. (I have never gone home early after court, if we finish court early, I go back to the office and continue working until my usual finish time).
Me: Em... I don't really remember that agreement.
Her phone rang then and she was just parking outside the office so that was the end of the conversation as I had to go upstairs, get changed and head home. She was still on the phone as I was leaving.
:mad: sweet jesus!!
Absolutely wrecked after today, it was a hectic day, we'd 3 cases on and all I had was my lunch so I've very little energy. I think I'm going to skip the gym tonight and watch a movie or something. Head is wrecked.0 -
