Walking to work in the morning can sometimes be akin to the Krypton Factor. I have to pass by the fruit markets that are on Mary Street and its all go. Yesterday morning I could have sworn the forklift that shot past me was being driven by a 12 year old. I think he even had a cushion under him to make appear taller then he was. You need all your wits about you when passing these lot. I spotted bags and bags of potatoes and paused to admire them and nearly got a fork up the back passage. Whatever you're into your-self, each to their own and all that, but of an average morning I'd prefer not to have a forklift sticking out of my trousers.
The last 2 days work wise have been mad, I worked until 8 on Monday and yesterday there was a bug in my code that caused my head to explode. I got it fixed, well sort of. As a result of mad hours, I've hardly seen the kid. She was off hanging on the Monday and sent us a txt asking us if she could stay over at the mates K that night. Naturally we had to second guess, ponder, wonder and double check what she was up to. Finally we realised she's 17 years of age and its a mate we know. We agree. Sometimes I think we are a tad over caustious. With all that's happened I suppose you can unnerstand it. Last night was date night! With both of us having so much going on, we need to set aside time for just us and last night we caught up on all the goings on. It was fab! We chatted about the work situation
and what Mammy2 is going to do regards the job. I think, if she's strong enough she's going to stick it out as best she can. I told her that her health is the most important thing and we can take out another loan if necessary. She is not to be putting herself in a position which could make her sicker. So we'll play it by ear for the next while. Finances are okay as long as she's in work. With the kid being a sponge when it comes to money, we need the cash coming in. 120 euros next week for her Debs.
Her DEBS is in September? I'll never understand what all this money is necessary for. On the good side, my tax got adjusted as a result of paying over 1600 a year for meds. Apparently I am in the single parent bracket. Strange that.
My nixers have come to a halt and I have mixed feelings about it. In one way, I love to be kept busy as it keeps my mind off things, although on the other hand sometimes I want to do over stuff. So I guess I just have to deal with whatever feelings may arise as a result of me not having 3235 things to do. That sounded
terribly dramatic didn't it?!

No attempt this month, our man is traveling the country at the moment. Might be good to clean the body out, drink more green tea and see what other drugs I can beat into me! I am going to go to the doctor and get checked out though, just to see if everything is in working order.
The boyf is still around, they went to the movies last night. I thought for sure on Sunday he was gone, but I think and I know this may sound cold, but she's waiting until he does something wrong. She never leaves them until they have done something and then she can justify breaking their heart. The poor things. She's so different to myself or my sister. I can count on one hand the amount of boyfriends and/or girlfriends I've had. I love the way I use the plural to imply I have had some :)
