Be seein' ya......X

As I was at work yesterday, I am having the day off today. I took child number 5 round to my dad's (he looks after him while I am at work) as normal after dropping other kids at school, and didn't tell him I was off. I feel really guilty. But I do have a whole 6 HOURS to myself. Wow, I can't believe it. The girls at work have been prepped so if my dad phones me at work about anything, they will say I have just popped out the office and they will ring me to give me the heads up. Aren't I awful.
I could either go back to bed, tidy the house, go into town (coz I really need some new slippers) for a coffee, read the rest of my book or just sit on the couch and watch day time television ALL DAY! Decisions, decisions.........Mmmmmmm! I feel like going back to bed coz I haven't slept for the last 12 years (slight exaggeration) but I will waste my day. The neighbour is cutting the grass. We have really posh neighbours, I mean really posh. We don't quite fit in in this area because we are NORMAL! Everyone thinks we are really posh coz we live in a big house, but we are just as skint as everyone else (coz we live in a big house). Happy days. We are really lucky though, and I appreciate that. ALso we live behind massive cast iron gates with an intercom system that you can only open with the code or the remote/system buzzers, so it keeps the debt collectors out. Ha ha ha.
My car is still out of action due to the puncture. I phoned at least 8 Renault dealers and not one could tell me how to release the spare wheel! "Oh no, the Grand Scenic shouldn't have a spare wheel, and if it has, you can't get it off. Sorry, it is a manufacturing fault". Nice one!
I think I will go to bed for a bit and read my book. Kill 2 birds with one stone and all that. Must put the dinner in the slow cooker first though. Spag Bol tonight. I don't know why I do it. More spaghetti ends up on the floor and walls that in the kids. Thank God for the dog. Noo noo. Be Seein' ya.........x
