Reading, Shopping, Back to the Grindstone

Well I've finished my shopping for R's present (thanks for the ideas, much appreciated), am half way through this wonderful book and preparing my brain for coping with returning to work tomorrow (still haven't forced myself to do the ironing though, too hot outside to miss out on the sunshine).

Went swimming again with Grumpy yesterday, he came in to the pool with me twice and paddled away feeling much happier afterwards and curlier too. I must remember to take a camera with me and would have done this time if S hadn't nagged so much to get to the pool in the first place.

The computer is driving me insane. It has taken up to an hour to manage to get to my own blog and although I can get as far as different profiles, it won't actually let me into any other blogs to either read them or leave comments. This is so frustrating and I'm hoping to get it resolved this week, which reminds me work tomorrow. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, back to wearing make-up, doing my hair instead of dragging it up into a scrunchie and having to wear more than a bikini and sarong for hours every day. Sigh.

Just go in to work in your bikini and sarong, it's going to be hot tomorrow, they'll understand!

Debs - I've got this book on my TBR by the bed.

BTW I am deeply envious when people live by the sea. You and Liz Fenwick. Grrr. Life must be hard. :)

Your comp problems still not sorted!! It's hell when they are not working properly isn't it....when I have problems I always feel really cut off from everything!!!

Hope you get it sorted out soon and that going back to work today wasn't too painful!!

helenmh - my week off was bliss, perfect weather too for once. I've survived my first day at work, just.

tom foolery - this computer is probably going to end up getting thrown out of a window soon.

I did ignore the ironing too.

denise - I would have loved to have done that, unfortunately though it was back to the usual threads.

phillipa - it is a great book, I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

I love being by the sea, not that I hardly ever go in it to be honest, too cold.

carol - computer is still driving me nuts, I do feel rather cut off and very irritated with it most of the time.

Work was okay. At least the day is over now.

Ah Debs, are they making you go back again tomorrow? Couldn't you feign an illness, such as severe sarong burn?

You are so right. Work is such an inconvenience on our lives. Somebody needs to do something about it, I think. Bad work!

Hope being back at work wasn't too horrible. I love the thought of Grumpy swimming - he's so cute!

tam - It's horrible when a holiday ends and it's back to the grindstone.

chad aaron sayban - I agree with you. I have to remember that it's working that pays for everything. Such a pain.

yvonne - work has been okay. I wish I'd had a camera with me but forgot it both times, he does look cute paddling away.

I'd love Molly-dog to swim, but she's terrified of water unfortunately! Mind you, I can't swim either...

karen - he doesnt always want to go in, it depends on his mood. Such a diva.
