Xmas is coming

Xmas is coming. ETA is about 2 days.

The last week has been quite busy, which is great, cos it takes my mind off all sorts of things that I don’t want to be thinking about. I have had to go shopping for food three times to get everything I need for Xmas dinner. Although there are only two of us attending my meal there is going to be a hell of a lotta food!

The other day (Tuesday) I cooked a meal just for me… and I finished the last portion off last night! I think I ate it about 6 times! But it fits in well with my new diet, if I get hungry eat… eat all of the time… but just don’t eat quite as much as I am used to.

I also started some work on Wednesday. It’s only voluntary but its interesting enough, even though the function that I do is boring the reading is easy. What I do is read the responses to a paper and I have to annotate it so the guy I am working for doesn’t have to read the full response but only a bit of it. I will be going back to it in the New Year with any luck. The guy at the jobcentre told me that I am not allowed to work for more than 16 hours per week, I think its so that I am still looking for a job and still available for interview (HA!) and other job hunting activities. Over the Xmas period it’s a bit slow on the job hunting front the chap at the job centre said that it gets a bit better in the new year, mid to late January it picks up a little. Well I hope Old Saint Nick has a job in the sack of his (not that I want to work in a sack).

I thought this winter was going to be the coldest in recent history!!! Bloody weather people! And here’s me sitting here in my underwear. I wanted snow and stuff! Well no stuff, just the snow, cos I fall over on the other stuff.
