It's official...I'm a sad, middle-aged woman.

I had done half the housework yesterday after I got home, mainly the easy stuff like sticking the washing in, changing the bed, dusting and wiping down. I had intended to do the hoovering but my bloody hooover wasn't picking up and as it was getting into early evening, I just couldn't be arsed trying to work out what was wrong (and I had better things to do like 'research' communities on LJ).

The sun was out, it wasn't cold...I could do the hoovering with all the windows and doors open!   How has my life come to this when the highlight of my day is being able to have the doors and windows open?  I really do need to get out more.  I'm disgusted at myself.  Not only that, the day is almost over!  Losing an hour cocks everything up.

Paul and I took a walk to the newsagents just after lunch.  It was closed.  I hate it here, nothing's open past early evening or on a Sunday unless you go into town.  Paul really needed to get out of the house and get some fresh air.  It's damned near killed him having to stay in all through winter.

So, to add more thrills, I'm waiting for the washing to dry and then I can start ironing.

The week ahead?  Well, I have the day off tomorrow so I'm going into town to buy Robbie's birthday presents (for Wednesday).  My baby's 16!  Where the hell did the last 16 years go?





Back to work on Tuesday and then I'm off for just over a week as it's the Easter break!  Which reminds me, I need to buy Easter eggs as well.  Hmmm, I wonder if I'll get one?

It's strange isn't it? It actually bothers me more that my baby brother turns 40 this year than it did my own 40th! Thankfully, most people think I'm the same age as my husband who has just turned 32 *sniggers*

(OMG, my husband is younger than my brother...hadn't thought of that before)!!

I'm finding it hard enough to deal with my son starting school this year, god forbid what a blubbering mess I will be when he turns 16.
