I'm hopeless

Have I mentioned I need to take it a bit easier...............

Today I had a call, then a visit, from my old school pick up who left in the summer...and guess what...she starts again Monday 5 nights a week.....I know I'm hopeless. I also had a call from an as and when mindee who may need some regular hours if I can fit them in...and what did I say....sigh...I am hopeless!!

Saying that today was very relaxing and enjoyable...well most of it......

Wayne wanted to go to Grandmas so took him there first thing, called with O to the bank and had a bit of quality time just me and him, then brother o came and we went to jumpin jacks, met with shel and had a good play and natter then chips in the cafe.....home and not long after mum came and I finished at 4 as there was no school pick up due to teacher training.........

I had a couple of hours to myself as Wayne was being brought back by grandad and grandma and I sent Ron for a chinese....nice.....BUT.....my 'me time' was spent on the phone to orange...then bt...then orange...then bt......and I just managed not to explode......

Without going on, basically our phone line has been switched off...although our second line and internet works..........mix up with the postcode is the reason....now we've got to wait 48 hours for bt to put the line back on so orange can take it over......that took an hour and a half on the phone.....picking options....you know 1 for 2 for....arghhhhh...then on hold with awful music...oh and then when someone finally answers and you get all excited.... you have to repeat your story over and over (even though the previous person has put notes on your file)then they end up speaking poor english and you have to strain to understand them, and they can't understand you....why are these people on phone helplines!!!!! One guy made me go through everything then said I'd phoned the technical helpline and I needed the customer helpline, so I'd have to phone back...and go on hold...and listen to music....and fume....why couldn't he just put me through.....not possible apparently.......................did I say I wasn't going to go on!!!!

And hey where's the snow???????????????????????????????????

Day off tomorrow.....yippeeeeeee..........................and at least no one can phone I suppose, so peace and quiet.......................................
