State of the SB

[miss_s_b]

• Work. New job is lots of fun. I get on well with all my coworkers, and the customers all seem to like me. Also I am Getting Things Done which is very satisfying. Finances are still up the swannee for various reasons, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Hoping it isn't a flamethrower. I am doing long shifts on Monday, Tuesday and Saturday, a short shift on Wednesday and a floating short shift where I do maintenance stuff and sort the cellar out and things, currently on a Friday. Do feel free to pop in and see me at work if you're in the area.


• Blogging. Um... yesterday's post seems to have got me a LOT of attention. Hello attention. I only post something THAT good about once a month. Mostly it's rambling about Doctor Who and Batman these days. But I do link to lots of other people who make incisive posts... Anyhew, I don't tend to plan blog posts in advance, they just come spewing out when they are ready, so don't expect a weekly "I will be posting X this week" post from me, like you get from some bloggers. I am rambly rather than organised, sorry.


• Other internetty stuff. Clearing out facebook is an utter pain. Why you can't have a tool like manage twitter, so you can tick boxes next to inactive groups and leave them all at once, I will never know...


• Life. There are ups and downs at the minute. magister's plans to move to Yorkshire have taken a bit of a knock, which is frustrating, and there's stuff going on for Holly at school which I'm not entirely happy about... But matgb is still awesome and lovely, and the doggies are still cute. The house is still a tip, like, but you can't have everything.

i've had extensive experience taking the schools / local authority on for education failings... if i can help, do let me know.

[miss_s_b]

Will do. Am thinking about doing an f-locked post about it later...

[leoniedelt]

will keep my eyes peeled for it.

Sounds like things are starting to get better for you, especially in the financial arena! I'm glad to hear it. :-)

Sorry to read about magister's moving problems; and as for Holly, too many schools seem to have problems with any child who won't be forced into a round (or square, or star-shaped for that matter) hole. Good luck with that, and also well done with the job!

Sorry to be a source of frustration. :( <3

Sorry, either I have not been paying sufficient attention (likely!) or my mind is like a sieve (nearly as likely), but I must have missed the news of the new job.
So belated congratulations, here and now. :-)
