laylee at 09:49pm on 07/07/2009 under best work friend, mother issues, old home town, real lifeI've spent the last four days in the wilderness. First in the old home town visiting mum and then over at best work friend's house drinking red wine and watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Along the way I've lost my toothbrush, picked up a sore throat from littlest niece, been mildly hungover for about three days straight and nearly froze my toes off walking to work today. Fun times.
Yeah.
Anyhoo, mum's out of hospital and in a respite centre for a few days. Ironically she's in the one just up the road from her house. I have to schlep up to the old home town again on Saturday to collect her on Saturday and fetch the dog from the kennel. I promised I'd stay a couple of days, but I'm on holiday for two weeks from Friday and I'll be dammed if I'm spending all my time in Balla. I haven't had more than a couple of days off in a row since Christmas and I need some time to myself. There's exhibitions I want to visit and a coat I want to Make. My flat needs a bloody good spring clean, I have to finish the dress I'm making for the brother-in-law's 40th and I haven't even started to one I want to wear to C's birthday party in three weeks' time. I also want to sleep in occasionally, have at least one leisurely breakfast at Organic Gertrude catch up with friends, and, you know, go shopping for shoes or something.
Meh, I feel so whiny tonight. Maybe I should make some hot chocolate and just go to bed.
Yeah.
