Should be working Really


I have decided that its too hot to be working, and have decided to blog instead, (Watch for Debi falling over in shock 2 blogs in a week)

My main problem is that I think my life isn't interesting to blog about.

This week has been fairly quiet really, after spending the majority of the weekend basking in the sun, plodded off to work on Tuesday (Monday was a bank Holiday Woo hoo), and decide to basically do bugger all, the good little Gemma sitting on my shoulder saying "You really need to do some work, you will only have to do it later in the week", while the naughty little Gemma on the other shoulder was saying "Screw it!, play on Facebook, and shoot baddies, Blog!" Unfortunately the naughty little Gemma won out.

Not many people admit to having little voices in their head but we, erm I mean I think it's perfectly normal.

This meant that I have had to spend the rest of the week catching up (with the good little Gemma smiling smugly and tell me "I told you so") expect for today when the Naughty One feels its too hot, oh well busy next week as well it seems.

Me and Gemma (not the naughty one, or the good one, but my partner) rang the estate agents who are responsible for our rented house, to see about renewing the contract, they are coming today, so mad cleaning session last night, not that it was that messy, just needed a hoover and a polish. After that we were both knackered, and decided to have a take-away mmmm pizza, and open a bottle of wine, and then another one, probably not the best idea as we both had work in the morning, I'm not that bad as I work in a office and can just shut my door, but Gemma is studying to become a ODP (basically a scrub nurse sort of thing), and is on placement in theatres at the moment.

As the night wore on, we finally made friends with next doors cat "Grace Kelly", it has only taken six months, but with the help of chicken and some tactical maneuvering Grace ended up sat on Gemmas lap purring her little head off.

So now the Good Little Gemma is bothering me again, so is my boss, So that enough blogging for a while, plus its POETS day today (Piss Off Early Tomorrows Saturday) so really should do some work, may add more later

A long time coming


Well after much prodding by my friend I have decided to wrote some more on my blog (apparently the Purple People Eater is driving her crazy)

I don't not update it on purpose its just finding the time, normally having to wait for my boss to be out of the office and my work load to be a little slower than normal. Which it finally has!

Well well well, what to update you on? Can't remember what has happen since I have last Blogged but here goes.

Last week at work was a right laugh! Well the first part was a little nasty.

I bit of background, I am first aid trained through my martial arts club, its a little pricey so decide to be cheeky and ask my boss it pay for it. He categorically said no, I thought hay ho, oh well, with moving into our own place this year couldn't really afford to do it. Not a big problem as other people at the Jujitsu club have it so it wont cause a problem there.

Then, one of the men at work was working on the steel guilottine (can you see where this is going?) and a large piece of steel got stuck. Him being not the brightest tool in the box, didn't turn the machine off and put his hand in to remove the piece of steel and managed to half remove his finger instead. My boss went running out to the workshop as soon as he found out and then proceeded to throw up in the corner


My boss is also the main first aider, obviously he couldn't deal with it so I had to. After much bandaging and a trip up A&E, my boss came to me rather sheepishly and told me "Maybe it would be a good idea if we paid for your First Aid Training" Hee hee hee (btw the lad is okay just in a hell of pain and and multiple stitches.

The next thing that happen was the funniest, again a bit of background, after the lads taking the piss with him supplying tea and coffee, (i.e drinking 3 litres of milk in 1 day) he stopped providing tea and coffee.

Again I am sitting in my office minding my own business and I hear a ruckus outside and yet again my boss was running outside I look out my window to see two of the lads rolling round the floor fighting! Wait for it over a tea bag!!!!! Apparently one lad had stolen the other lads tea bag! lol. Two formal warnings later and me giggling in my office the lads walking shamefaced round the workshop!

The last incident at work was about one of the new lads that had started, to put it blatantly he stinks, stale BO and slightly of wee! My boss much to his embarrassment and the lads had to take him into the office and tell him to have a wash because none of the other lads would work with him cause he was so stinky!

So at the end of the working week I was fairly knackered and highly amused! Than rolls on Saturday I went shopping to pick up a few bit and pieces of food with my mates daughter. It was about 3ish in the afternoon when I get a call from my better half asking me if we could have a BBQ, that night, bearing in mind we have no BBQ type food, no charcoal and mainly no BBQ!!

On the other hand really quite fancied a BBQ, so ran round like a headless chicken to get everything dragging my mates daughter with me (who was brilliant). Get home to erect the newly brought BBQ, to find it was actually made for Gnomes (the smallest BBQ I have ever seen) bearing in mind again we had at least 8 people coming! Rang my partner who managed to borrow a human sized one off on of our friends!

It was my first ever attempt at a BBQ, and it didn't turn out that badly!

A little more planning would have been good though!!

Thats it really hopefully Blogs will come more often, but who knows
