We are winning!

Phew! We are winning! The new computer is up and running, internet going, phones still buzzing every now and then - but - they are saying it could be the damp atmosphere playing havoc with the lines?? They are going, that is the main thing. Peter and I are still talking to each other, LOL some times I find it hard going working for my husband, I mean if you work for a manager and he drives you mad, or you don't agree with what he's doing or saying - you bite your tongue, like wise if Peter had an office lady that drove him mad from time to time he would bite his tongue too. But when you are married, well you say what you think, which is not always a good thing! Also you would thing a manager may thank the office lady for getting the work done regardless - but the husband didn't!! So I told him last night a bit of thanks/appreciation would have gone a long way. His reply - no-one thanks him for doing his job! He may have a point there.... I know how easy it is to take each other for granted. My thoughts though were that I've worked every day until after 7.00pm! Only one session of aqua this week - no me time at all! I thought I was part time.... My last job last night was stock take, it was about 7.30pm when Peter headed back to the house, I called it a day at just before 8.00, when I went in surprise, surprise, dinner was ready, left over beef dish I had cooked in the crock pot the day before and Peter had made these patties with the left over veges, he had taken care and had cooked them in just a smear of olive oil and told me they were told me they were low fat. He had set the table, dished up, I didn't have to do a thing except sit down and eat - this is a rare situation in our house and I think some how he got the message I was feeling a bit fed up!

Today Rachel is working for a few hours, (I've warned her there's a bit to do) I'm meeting Jenny (Jo's mum) for a coffee then I have a funeral to go to. An old family friend passed away, I also worked with his daughter a few years ago.

This weekend - well that has crept up really fast! We are of to H Bay, my nephew has his engagement party. He has the most beautiful fiancee, they met at a motor camp in Lyn's area as kids and the families used to camp together for years. When our brother in law passed away suddenly she was such a support to our nephew as a friend and then they became a couple. It will be good weekend, friends are picking us up tomorrow morning and then we go over and meet up with my sister and her kids. We are all staying in a motel for the night. Today I must go and get them a present - and something I don't really need but I have offered (not realising what kind of week we were going to have), I'm making a few loaves of bread into sandwiches for the party, so will get the fillings ready tonight. Hmmm wonder what time we will eat tonight!!

Next week - back to the pool!! Also I'm not giving up on the gym, I did make it last week, and will be back there next week. Also I weighed myself this morning - 73.2, no loss, but I'm fine with that, point counting has been the last thing on my mind, no exercise and no water.

Three weeks until we go on holiday!!! I can't wait.
