Spillage

Stuff in my head spilling on the page…how old will I be before I learn to get the Christmas shopping done very early so I can enjoy the run up to Christmas rather than being in a huge grump about it? Hopefully 39 see list…I need to give comments on the first draft of the redesign of Chez Spud but I’m too afraid as I’m having a ‘this is it’ kind of moment even though I really like the way it’s shaping up…I absolutely HAVE to finish the Piers Morgan diaries tonight even if I’m up until stupid o’clock…my ‘to do’ list is under control but that concerns me…I am making a bit of progress in terms of comfort level with new job and that concerns me too…next week I am seeing a friend I haven’t seen for 7 years and that thrills me…on Thursday Bertie is performing in his first nativity play and I well up every time I think about it…I am really enjoying morning snoozes with my boys in bed even though we don’t get up until 8am and are late for nursery every day, I know it can’t be like this forever…I have completely lost my photographic mojo since shelling out for a new camera, that’s a bit of a bugger isn’t it…it surprises me how often I keep ’score’ in my head, it’s lucky I have a grudge book…I really must pay the milkman, it’s been weeks…I wonder if that damp patch on the newly plastered wall will ever dry…should we get a dog…Diggy needs new pyjamas…I don’t think Dubai will ever recover from the last few weeks, I wonder when we’ll be able to visit 6 star hotels for 5p a night…I had to redial the same number over and over for 25 minutes today to speak to the Inland Revenue to discuss Corporation Tax…that’s 25 minutes of my life that are never coming back…it’s quite thrilling to be a Director of my own company…and the Secretary…yay me…the bores and moaners on Twitter are REALLY irritating me, stop tweeting about absolutely fecking nothing, who cares…the nursery bill for December was eye wateringly high…roll on April when Diggy gets funding and September when Bertie goes to school, although cry too…I really, really, really miss my friend R who died a few weeks back…I must buy new jeans, my son keeps giving me pennies to buy new ones as mine have holes in the knees…google chrome for mac, oooooh nice…my handbag is really nice and tidy…it amazes me how well cashmere washes…I don’t understand why I was charged £12 and not £6 to accept a SWIFT payment in to my business bank account, just because the sender ‘opted to share the fees’ with me. I didn’t agree to that? How the hell does that work?…why, why, why is the office leaking? I thought we’d resolved that and now it’s leaking through the roof…
And on and on and on and on




Omg, you’re in a hilarious mood today! Very funny although grrr re sleepin in till 8! I am at work by then. Did I tell you that I’ve done ALL my Christmas shopping and tonight I wrote my hand made crafty cards… Tomorrow I will label your chutney and ice my cake. To be honest I’m finding it a breeze….(puts up Grudge shield)
Oh Wow – that “I don’t feel like commenting, but I ‘heart’ this post is the best thing ever for lurkers! Where did that come from? Is that a WP widget? I adore it!
Love your stream of consciousness post…isn’t it amazing how fast our mind races from one topic to the next…faster than the speed of woman-hood.
keeping the mind busy is good against alzheimerism… your post sounds like my mind during good parts of the last night, i really wonder why, full moon is over and i don’t care too much about christmas presents and decoration. i would love to decorate the whole house but to clear the delicate and dusty things after the season is sooooo annoying!
oooh my head is spinning
… my ramblings in my head are not any better either..December will be over before we know it though
I love this post. I’ve been trying to do a stream of consciousness type post and my mind keeps organizing it. What’s up with that?
There was a lot of hurt in that post, or so it seemed. I hope that you can not feel so down about things. Sometimes it just seems like the weight of the world wants to smother us It is hard to break out of a funk sometimes.
I love that the boys want to help you buy new jeans. My kid just paid a ton of cash for symmetrical wholes down both legs. 1982? yes. Unfortunately the price was 2009.
You’ll get your mojo back, don’t worry
