Cold, colds and too much food!

Oliver has had a cough/cold for about a week - last night I had a sore throat and this morning I'm cottonwool head and coughing! Just in time for Christmas!

This wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the ice cold (but not Sweden cold!) temperatures outside which make me cough more!

Then seeing as it is Christmas there is the food - and with a cough I can't "run it off"!

Hubby got his Christmas pressie from work:
M&S Belgium biscuits (large tin of)
MacVittes large tin
Carr cheese bics
Carr belguim bics
Tub Chedders
or
one of the 2 packets of M&S belgium choc shotrbread

I don't stand a chance!

oof - don't get pressies when you work in the public sector - probably just as well!

Will put the recipe on my blog - and copy to RW recipes.

Must go for my plod first, before I decide its too snowy and cold.

The Next Three Weeks

So I have a few busy weeks ahead that may, or may not, affect what happens here. So this weekend I am running the Chester metric marathon - should do about 3:30 and get a PB by around 30 mins if things go to plan. Next week I am on holiday and have the in-laws visiting which will be nice. Then after then I have 2 weeks of jury service in Derby. I really want to get a case as I am really interested in knowing what actually happens and what it's like in court. But knowing my luck I will have 2 weeks of waiting for nothing. I have Ami's zoom calls to review and take notes on, books to read, coloring/drawing to try my hand at and Loki to watch! After that the exciting news is my part time request has gone through so from 4th December I will be part time. Very exciting. Then hopefully I can start a potential path to being a swimming teacher. Fun days ahead

What Are You??

Apparently I am a geek after spending some time chatting to a first line support person and comparing degrees!! I am also apparently an executive as I earn more than a certain sum of money! This I must point out is executive in the eyes of a Midlands person and not a southern!! I think I am a runner and a mother because I run and have a son! I don't think I have a career and would struggle to define what I really do! Talking of which I may change the address for this site to blog.html or similar because if I do go job hunting I am not sure if my made ramblings should be front page news!! hehe!! I currently work in IT doing support with a hint of customer service at second line. I run and I'm trying to learn to draw! So what or who are you!?!
