2nd September 1979

Sunday 2
Worked 10.00 - 6.25
Not busy at all
Rained all afternoon

Phoned Sam at dinner time
= his usual talkative self (is there a hint of sarcasm there??)
Phoned him in the evening = ok

Watched "The Pivate" H. Robbins (It was The Pirate? Oh my I can't even read my own handwriting lol)

Firstly I must apologise for not visiting as many of you as I want.
My computer, as my Teen, my brother and friends who have used it will testify for me, is slow.
Just now it is not a case of wading through treacle but sinking in sinking sand ... it is taking all of my patience just to post !! Note to self to spend a long old while deleting and defragging!!

Secondly it was my first day back in work after the summer
(huh what summer?) break. It wasn't as bad as I thought it could have been ... this was my day.

Thanks for visiting my blog. God how depressing is this? First because this is what i remember of my holidays in the South of France and in Italy (how cosmopolitan do I sound?) But second, how bloody skiiny are these women? Kate Moss looks like a lard-o. No wonder I had/have body image issues.

I think this is a busy month for every one. I am working like nobody's business. I slept at 4 a.m and woke up at 8 and again there is so much work. Teen was in bed? didn't get. Good day:)

SB ~ yes September is always a bad month.... everything stars to pile up workwise after the summer break. I am full on in work until the middle of September and October is now being booked up.

Teen in bed! My teenager... I am only able to get my hands on the lap top when she is sleeping lol

Try and get some sleep ;)

DP ~ ah so you got it wrong Annie is right it wasn't her it was 'J' from my diaries & from Random Place of Mind.
I spoke to my Mum for about 1/2 hour as I do every night (except tonight as I was home late from work, cooked tea then ironed!!)

70steen said...
