What a Week...

Hello internets! Did you miss me? My week has been full of ups and downs and drama. I have had a promise to buy my car reneged on (so it looks like it will be eBayed pretty soon). I have had my hair done at Toni and Guy (been saving up for that one for ages). I have done lots of cellar work at work, and lots of karate and climbing. I have redone the menu leaflet for work. I have made a fair dent in all the web design stuff I'm supposed to be doing, but am nowhere near finished. And I haven't stopped all week. I've barely had time to switch the computer on, let alone blog.

I have managed to have an f-list cull across all platforms though. If you've been removed, don't take it to heart, I was just drowning under the weight of stuff. I feel a lot better for reducing facebook and twitter by about a third. LJ was harder, and Dreamwidth harder still, but I think it will do my sanity good.

State of my health: I have a bunged up nose, loads of bruises of unknown origin, a knackered knee, a pulled pelvic floor muscle, and have been having the odd depressive attack. And I am very very very tired.
State of my finances: buggered.
State of my house: a tip.
State of my love life: pretty good.
State of my inbox: overflowing.
State of my To Do List: overwhelming.

Urge to do anything about any of the above? Non-existent.

I spent last night sitting in bed, nursing my poor sore knee, sipping brandy and watching Genesis of the Daleks. I have Imbolc to look forward to next weekend, not to mention lovely friends coming to visit for fun times (Andrew Hickey even says I can plait his beard!), and then a few days away in sunny Luton. Last week was very busy and stressful, but next week looks to be being better. :D

Oh yes, and I have a new sponsor :D Say hello to the lovely

nanila, who was the very first Dreamwidth friend I made. Her blog is excellent, and you should all be reading it.

Glad to have survived the cull... this time.
Your 'state of' descriptions sound very close to my own (luckily Holly is starting a part time job canvassing for the Lib Dems next week, so next month we may spend less than we earn for the first time in five months...). Maybe 2010 is starting out with a really shit month, so it can get better quickly?

	I hope you're right about 2010. Mat is enjoying his new job, anyway. We just have to wait a fair while till he gets paid from it... (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

Look how grown up I'm being in not asking if the pulled muscle and the state of your love life are related! *grins*

May I ask which Toni and Guy you went to? I've been to a few and although they're supposedly all trained to the same standard, they seem to be rather hit and miss (like the numpty who didn't neutralise the half ton of peroxide she wasn't supposed to put on my head and left me with a slice of stretchy, stringy hair for a year - fun!)

	I went to Halifax, and of the three stylists I saw in action, I definitely got the right one. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	You cut me from LJ, but not from Facebook. Do you want me to take you off there? (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 3 comments) (Show 3 comments)

	No, sweetie. You got cut from lj purely for time reasons; I think it's more honest to do that than to put people on filters. you're not cut from my access list on here either. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	OK! I always like to read what you have to say, even if I don't necessarily have time to comment on it, so I'm glad to be able to see it! (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Of course. And hopefully at some point in the future I'll have more time... (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)
