Ok, I am more than ready for the snow to go away now, pretty please. I have narrowly avoided landing on my posterior more times than I can count, my car battery has died due to the cold, I am bored of wearing ugly, sensible trainers, and I have seriously dented my flexi-time at work due to the non-arrival of buses. I am not a penguin, and am not suited for this climate!
My day at work on Friday was actually so horrendous that I look back now and it feels like a bad dream... After a 20 minute walk & 2 buses, I finally arrive at the office. I then find there is no manager. Manager eventually arrives, but with no keys. Off goes manager for 40 minutes to another office to find keys. Meanwhile, self & a wonderful, elderly volunteer wait outside, the minus 7 temperature making the wait excrutiating!Upon finally entering the bueau, we discover there is no running water, and no heaters. This means no toilet, no cup of tea... & it was in these conditions I had to work for nearly 3 hours solid, as by this stage there was a queque of clients at the door!
Anyway. My awful Friday morning certainly made me appreciate the rest of my weekend. I have been seriously recharged & generally just enjoyed myself! Was a quiet one, snow isn't exactly condusive to faraway journeys and nights out! Got a bit tipsy with the other half on Friday, had a jaunt around town on Saturday, did some cooking, re-dyed my hair, gamed (rather a lot), read the latest Margaret Atwood book, rearranged the flat...nothing 'exciting', but very enjoyable to me :)
Anyway, its treat time - off to finish munching my danish & slurping down my tea!
