Good afternoon Bloggets. For me life hasn’t quite got back
to normal yet. Though Hub is trying to get things right by going to work which
to be honest he shouldn’t be back he was shattered last night and this morning
when he got up he just didn’t know where he was and, in his words, he said he’s
in a fog. I had to remind him to pick up his phone and watch. This isn’t like
him at all. He won’t be in until later tonight as he has spent the day three
hours away from here. See what he’s like when he gets in. He said he had to go
to work yesterday as there was an important contract to sort out. I’m sure it
would have waited! He said he would do a short day yesterday… short day, half a
day? Nope, one hour and a quarter less than he would normally get in from his
main office.
He left the house today at half seven this morning and will
return about half six tonight. He’s crazy. But he’s proud of his staff and
results so wants to keep them at a good standard. He has the best team. They
are like a family. I used to love going to the office, it had such a great
feel. There was a lady there who I used to go and give talks with to groups and
her and I got on so well.
BW is OK at work these days but still looking for another
job. Oh, my he had me laughing, just before all our events last week kicked
off. He had a meeting with his area manager. It was in a coffee shop. The meeting
was with him and his manager. His AM, asked him if he could get him a drink. Bare
in mind, this was A, during the day, and B just before BW was due to start
working for ten hours.
“Oh yes please, I will have a Stella Artois?””
His Area Manager replied with a chuckle. Yeah right. BW then
pointed to a fridge with cans in of the beer as his AM didn’t believe you could
buy it in a coffee shop… and replied. Ok, I meant soft drink. BW had a cheeky
grin on his face.
Well BW started to talk about his manager leaving the place
in such a mess. As BW opened some mornings he has double the work to do because
of her bad closes. She replied to him. In two ears of working here I have not
once left the place in a bad way. It’s always perfect. (Mistake Love)
BW then took out his iPhone and started to download the evidence
he had. As that was happening, he listed twenty things she does wrong on a
close… I asked what was the expression on her face? He replied. In shock. Her eyes
were getting larger, wider. And what was the expression on his Area Managers
face?
BW replied. “Well Mum. He kind of just looked stunned.””
Hahaha. He then told them he had video and pictures of the
book work she had not done. Things she should have signed and she hadn’t. and
paperwork everywhere. As well as leaving the place really untidy. He held his
phone out and asked if they would like to have a look?
They both declined by nodding their heads.
Well long and short of it is his boss has sadly now moved on
to bully a mother member of staff. She is as nice as ninepence to BW. I think
there were words after BW left the meeting between managers. I think our Son
should have been a Solicitor.
Last night he went out with his pal he works with. Now this
lad is a prankster. As is our Son. So, I was wondering if they would get into
trouble. But they were fine. He had a great night, which is fantastic. Apart from
he left his keys at home, as I didn’t want him to lose them. He wasn’t taking
his car as he was going out for a drink as of course sadly for BW that is all
his pals know what to do. I wish he could find friends who just liked to do
anything apart from drinking as my Son isn’t really into alcohol. Though I am
sure last night he had a few, but thankfully he never goes overboard with it. I
think he left his keys at home as they didn’t look good in his jeans pocket. Seriously,
if they got any tighter, the chances of Hub and I not becoming Grandparents
would be high.
Sham stayed the other night and she was sick… oh, heck…. You
know what my first thought was? Hub and I can’t wait to be Grandparents, but
when the right time and the right time isn’t now… BW wants two babies and Sham
three. If they stay together, I would say it will be three Grand Children we
will have. That’s a nice number. But to have one will be something I will be grateful
for. just not yet.
Who will be the Mother of our Grandchildren? May be Sham? May
be not. Only time will tell. I know one thing though; our Grand babies will
have two totally different parents if those two do stay together. They are like
chalk and cheese. Some couples you know belong together as they are so similar.
And then there are those two. People say opposites attract, well they have in
their case.
I’m pleased that Sham has not said anything about BW
becoming a vegetarian, I thought she may have done as she loves her meat. And now
he is a Vegan, she’s still really supportive. Fantastic. Bless her.
BW and I are determined to get Hub to become a vegetarian. Well
last night I made him a vegetarian meal he ate it enjoyed it and tonight I have
made some home-made soup. Vegetarian. And he has just said on the phone as he’s
in transit from work, he is looking forward to it. Hahaha. I joked last night
saying by Christmas there will be one less turkey going to be strangled. He said
never. He doesn’t want to be a vegetarian…. Let’s see…()
My ex became one. A vegetarian that is. Haha. And I am proud
to say he still is. I always thought when we split up he would go to eating
meat as it’s easier and cheaper. But no, so that’s great.
It’s wild outside really windy. But in comparison to other
parts of the world, we are lucky. Oh, when I watched the news yesterday I was
so sad to hear the people in America/Florida, were told to evacuate their
properties and leave all possessions and pets. What? Leave behind your pets? No,
never. How? Oh, I felt sick.
Oh, I have to tell you a funny story I was cleaning the
stairs the other day, well yesterday. As I was cleaning them with our Dyson, I couldn’t
get over just how dirty the carpet was. Then I wondered why the vacuum wasn’t
picking it up? Going over and over the stairs, nothing happening other than
realising to my shame just how bad our stairs were. Normally that is Hubs job
at the weekends is to vacuum the stairs. I thought, OK it didn’t get done at
the weekend, but surely it was only Monday, one or two days shouldn’t have made
much difference?
Oh. My. Goodness. No wonder the stairs seemed to be getting
worse… the piggin lid had come off the bin, so it was blowing everything out of
it that I had already cleaned. Like the rugs in the sitting room and conservatory
as well as the kitchen floor crumbs…. But the bin lid hadn’t just come open, it
was off…. Fifi the Hoover breaker strikes again.
Then to search for the lid!
OK finally some science news. In Florida US scientists have
tried to prove that you can get rid of kidney stones by riding a rollercoaster.
Sitting in the back row there is a 64% chance success rate
of passing them. Compared to 17% less who sit in the front. Haha.
The King cobra as well as hissing, growls and barks.
Marie Curie used to carry around radioactivity with her and
it will take another fifteen hundred years before it will be away from her
furniture clothes and so on.
Today if you want to examine her notes in the National Library
of France, you will have to wear protective clothing.
And on that note… I shall chat later with a couple of
subjects you have asked me to write about.
