Day 34, 4 days until you return.

So, back to work I go, and I must say, it was good to be back doing something and being ill!
It's Monday so i started late, I got bored this morning and made rice crispie cakes, if you're lucky I'll save you one, if not, we'll make some more, I have a box of rice crispies after forgetting I didn't like them and buying a box full.
I went to the open farm with work first, it was freezing cold and ram packed with unruly children. We didn't stay too long!
I had dinner at work and then went bowling, in a twist of events, I managed to win twice, this was brilliant as I usually loose dramatically!
I returned to work, did my paper work and came home for a lovely cup of Yorkshire tea.
That was my Monday over!
oh, that message I sent you earlier probably made no sense as it wasn't actually for you. It was for the other Helen!
See you soon xx

Day 33, 5 days until you return!

I am so excited that you will be back in such a short time, I hope you're not too jet lagged! I decided to go an look at the sales earlier, I brought a fantastic hat, I'm fed up of being cold when I have to go horse riding with work! This will certainly solve that problem!
I had to get Dad to look at my car because all of my lights went, He said to take it to a garage because he thought there was yet another problem with my car. I took it to halfords and it turns out it was just the bulbs, they all decided to die at once! A nice young man fitted me some new ones and that was that sorted!
I spent the afternoon cleaning and tidying, the flat smells of shake and vac and everything is relatively tidy, so hopefully should still be nice for your return!
I made chilli for tea which was rather delicious and then spent the evening not doing a lot as I've got work tomorrow and want to make sure I'm not at all flu like when I go in!
Bruce is on tonight! I shall report back about him tomorrow!

Day 32, 6 days until you return, New Years Day.

Well, I woke up in a better mood than I went to bed in, this however, was not particularly difficult, I was in bed before midnight with the terrifying sound of fireworks cracking out of control outside my window. I eventually managed to get to sleep and when I woke up I felt almost back to normal, almost.

Mam wanted to go to the Lakeland shop this morning, the one like the one in Windermere, full of tat that old people can't get enough of. Well anyway, the one near us is near a retail park so I said I'd go with her providing we could go to the retail park afterwards.
On the way to Mams the time was 11.11 my clock display said 11:11 1/1/11 this amused me.
Anyway to my great delight, Lakeland was shut, so we just went to the retail park, there wasn't much there though really but we had a coffee!

I spent the afternoon at the farm, we watched Peter Pan. Mam cooked roast dinner and i created the best bread and butter pudding ever known to man. Afterwards we played monopoly, obviously Matties idea, He won. I got bored, there was the usual amount of shouting swearing and cheating and me and Mum gave up just before the very end so that Matt couldn't say he actually won.

That was about it for New Years Day.

I did get to speak to you though and this was magnificent. I liked hearing that you had been on a horse as I could imagine this would be brilliant to watch.
Your home soon, this makes me excited.
