...The sound of silence

My apologies for being so quiet recently...there hasn't been a great deal to report if I'm to be completely honest with you.

Mark & I are finally recovering from various bugs we've been collecting over the past few weeks, think our ammune systems have taken a hammering...feeling human again now though :o)

Well (trying to think whats been going on)we've been to the cinema, more than once since my last post I suspect, Scotty (the lodger) went away to work & returned a few days later as his ship is in dry dock...so we've had a bit of a mad house again! :op

Work has become incredibly busy all of a sudden so no more time for painting nails & updating this like I used to *sigh* suppose it's a good thing really, the days are flying by. Heading up to our new premises in Stockton at the end of the month too so it's all going on this month :o)

Mark & I have been shopping for 'housy' things so hopefully I'll start decorating soon, we actually have wardrobes with doors & handles up in our room now...check that out :op Marks currently on building our new bedside tables which we're ordering a top for so I can use it as a dressing table...never had a proper one before so I'm actually quite excited!

Not allot going on tonight (well that I know of) chippy Dinner & a DVD I'd imagine...heaven! :o) Tomorrow we're off to Joon & Omar's for a meal & a drink (or few) which I'm looking forward too, was meant to be last week but with Mark & I being under the weather & his work pattern we thought it best to put it back a week.

That's about it for the weekend...well apart from my Mums monthly visit which will be nice. Monday I've booked a half day off as I've volunteered my services & follicles to be a hair model at a L'Oreal demonstration...just hope they don't do anything 'funky' with it, I've passed my college girl mad hair stage :op actually should be popping out for a cuppa with an old friend Mike from college come to mention it after work though :o)

Tuesday Marks off to Bristol with work so I'm off out for a meal with Lou, figured we haven't had a nice girly night for a while & shes been a little down lately so a nice meal & bottle of wine should be just what the doctor ordered :o)

Wednesday is just work as normal but taken Thur, Fri off (I seldom work full weeks nowadays)Hoping I'll be able to get my theory test booked for one of those days to get that out of the way.

Thursday night we're off to Marks Mums for dinner, his sister & her boyfriend are coming too, every ones lovely so it should be good fun :o) Friday we're having our friends Sean & Lisa over, Sean's going to help Mark shuffle the kitchen units around so we can actually put the fridge in there [we were going to do it a little while back but Sean was diagnosed with cancer, he had the tumour removed last month & has been told that it doesn't appear to have spread)Sean definitely apologised?? last week to us for 'forgetting' about our kitchen! Silly man, I think I'd forget about more than a kitchen if I'd been given that news, luckily Sean's optimism & great sense of humour has carried him through & he's back to the cheeky chap we all know & love :o)] Lisa & I will no doubt have a good natter while the boys are busy playing nice, then I think we'll all grab dinner :o)...quite a busy week to come now I think of it!
