After yesterdays cinema day i haven't had the TV on for myself, but my lad did. He has started to watch The Cat In The Hat Knows A Lot About That and will watch them repeatedly. I took my stepkids to the local pub for a couple of hours and enjoyed talking about stuff. My stepdaughter is excited about me taking her to watch Insidious at the cinema but she will be very scared. Its difficult keeping on the right side of teenagers but that helped. I picked up another follower on Tumblr this morning which always puts a spring in my step. Today I am writing my Blog on my laptop which is not as good as my Ipod for correctly adjusting my spelling etc. I enjoy typing on the large keyboard but here when i write 'i' it doesn't automatically put it in capitals or put in apostrophies. The only answer is an Ipad 2 but luckily when i have been in a frivolous mood, the shops have had none in.
My bathroom gets replaced this week and i'm told that it could be near three weeks work. I dont much relish the thought of some stranger walking amongst my belongings but i trust my landlord trusts the bloke and thefore i will trust his judgement. It will be great for me when its finished though. The plaster dust chokes me each evening whilst the walls await papering and painting but it will look really homely once complete and i'm told that you can't make an omlette without braking some eggs. What the hell that has to do with decorating i don't understand. Just because there is a saying doesnt mean that it has any place in conversation.
There is the saying that "Many hands make light work" but also "Too many cooks spoil the broth". You can't win with these sayings as there seems to be one for every occasion now.
Another early night is slipping away from me so i had better head up very soon to read. My intension was to go straight to bed and read for an hour but already i sit typing this nonsense instead. Another slow day tomorrow i expect until the evening when i am free to indulge in what i please. I am in positive spirits these days and managing to keep on top of my demons for now. I do wonder if its because i am not listening to as much music. i think music can really affect my moods profoundly and set me off for the evening. I am stuck in a cycle of podcasts for the time being. They actually assisted me in the downfall of my marraige as it was frowned upon that i listened to them. Being told not to do everything became the norm and yet the podcasts cheered me up when i was lost in them. Its a sign of getting older when you just listen to people talk and not the music anymore. right....bed.
