My goodness....I feel trapped by the power of chat!!!...not many people can dominate me through the medium of chat but I have been trapped for an hour....or is it that I became desocialised?...not sure...the new landlord is an "individual" for sure...fair enough though...if it wasn't for the excessive battery of chat I would like him even more...head strong...confident in his own abilities...won't settle for second best...takes chances...travelled....enjoys life...does not suffer fools..sound familiar?
He he.
Settling in after a blip last week....tread carefully though...but seems fine...just came to me there the now...this is the 1st lodging where I have been staying with a couple!!!...interesting...new experience...for us all I suppose.
We seemed to have turned a corner with the kids back at the other home...my real home really....change in attitude from the lass and continuation of the same from the loon...all good...more stable between me and C...it is nice...still have a kind of jolt when returning to that environment...but still feels like it is where I should be. One of the things discussed at the blip was when I was moving in with C..this was my landlord!!!...so i had a think..then chatted to C..12 months too much....3 months too short....so..a review in 3...my gut instinct will be 6 months...what a thought though....what a change....what a journey....stability for the kids is the priority at the moment..they have been living in a state of flux for so long now...and then it settles...and then they are moving school close by home...which will not be easy...specially for the loon...hope he doesn't go down the route of kicking ass (although it may be the easiest way) for those that give him grief..all he has known thrown out the window..he is quiet but strong...so we keep things as they are...do not think me moving in would be good for them or me at this point...counselling finished but many things to settle for me and for us to build on as a team..couple...strong though..and hat is a good thing.
I won't let the memory of the last devastating relationship affect us.
Counseling finished and complete...strange to not be walking the streets to fill time before my appointment but very good as well...sorted my sports membership....ready to go...went to library to return/take out new cd's...and back here for entrapment!!!..he he..was fine...and still have time to pack, freecycle and blog...all good.
And back to family life tomorrow..although another weekend where i am working a day of it....well..an afternoon then on to the radio show...but still...almost feel I am not living up to me part of the bargain....C says it is alright but I am not comfortable with it...it is the job and it is important for the future..in fact..it has contributed to the future..our future...but still feel like a shite! What of the future...?..well...we shall find out soon enough...just keep on keeping on and wait for the word that will follow..quietly confident...but never rest until the letter hits the floor!
As for property..well...Edinburgh has cost me £250.00 in upgrading for the wiring....and Mr B is asking for an extra £400.00 for the Association and repairs to the roof....Glasgow will cost me roughly £300.00 for a new cooker and a direct debit for £100.00 until December this year for fascia repair and Perth is going to cost me £2.5 K for roof repairs...and then i have to take the rest of my b'stard neighbours to a small claims court to reclaim the monies...fun fun fun...oh...and assuming I secure the extension of my contract....I am trying to save £10 K of upgrades of a property I am hoping to purchase this December and then rent out....all go...still up for it....hope it is worthwhile when i come to retire!....bloody better!!!!
My life seems to be hectic and never stops...but...hey..all good....Sunday work then radio show then pick up hire car at 8 am on Monday and then down to Fife to check on dad...see what is happening down there...stopping off at Sheriff Court in Perth on the way...the back Tuesday...missing 2 important rehearsals!!!..then back to Radio on Wednesday and work....hey ho....will be tired...C knows this....but a hug and I am fine.
Tara for now.

Happy New Year
...and to celebrate, Aberdeen has decided to rain down on me!!
Suppose it is better than the snow, it has to be said. Especially as I have a walk tomorrow...it will remove what is left of the ice on some of the paths....I hope!!
Well..all back to normal now..as normal as can be that is...work, chorus and counselling..although that will finish soon enough....freeing up some time to go and do some exercise hopefully....there was a full lot of chorus last night...bit too much messing about for me...a bit of banter is fine...but 2 mins of joking and fecking about prior to a run through,.....which was invariably wrong...does add up the time...dear me....a long way to go before we can compete properly I think...hey ho....it does need to be fun though....I am enjoying it although not knowing the words can be a pain in the backside...more for my fellow bass section than me....but they are all helpful and i am sure...once I am on the full distribution list...i will receive the relevant documentation...ha ha...i must admit I have probably lost or deleted a few docs as well!!!....must stop doing that.
Strange time at work as we enter the last 3 months of my contract..although we are fairly sure a senior manager is going to initiate executive powers to extend as we have the money...but we do not know for sure...so I cannot commit to anything past March and cannot take anything new on but still have to shake and make things to keep the momentum going...kind of.....pretend everything is going to be alright when I am not sure it is...been here before but in a much stronger position..as mentioned before...if this goes ahead that will be me over the 2 years so they cannot get rid of me (that easily)!!
We have a councillors visit today at Lochinch...our office....so they can see where Aberdeen FC are looking to build their stadium...hoping to shock them into saying...goodness gracious...we cannot have this...to hell with the millions generated within Aberdeen businesses and our back handers!!...like that is going to happen...obviously...I was joking about the backhanders....but there is so much political pressure...the guy is Stewart Milne for goodness sake!!!...I can't see it not happening.....but then..where will we..as a service...be in a few years time?
Settled into my new digs and seems to be fine. Hope this will be the last move before buying...which...of course...i can't say until the news about the job comes through...hey ho!!
