Odds and Sods

Apparently I have been "blogsidasical"... I love that word. This has been because I have been working. Work has been pretty busy. There have been a lot of big ships lately, this is good for everyone... bigger ships, more dues, more money... shame we probably wont see any of it!!

A few things have been happening. Noel's mum was due to go into hospital on Sunday for a gall stone operation. She has known about it for a couple of weeks and it has been playing on her mind, as these things do. It has also been affecting his dad, who gets very wound up about things like this. Sunday morning the hospital rang to say they didn't have a bed for her. They are both now really upset and have to go through the whole waiting game again until the hospital come up with a new date. Sometimes I think they forget they are dealing with real people with real feelings.

Today Erin got her school photo. The last one from "big school". She hates it but I really like it. She will be 16 in 12 days time, my baby girl all grown up. I shall find some suitably embarassing baby pictures to post on here at that time.

I phoned my Grandparents tonight to make sure they are ok and have not attempted to go out in this cold snap. The last thing they need is to have a fall at their ages. I also told them if there is anything they need they must ring me to get it for them as it would be suicidal for them to attempt to go out in this weather, apparently Tesco's car park is like a skating rink at the moment. My mum also has the flu at the moment so she can't do anything for them, so while I have four days off I shall do my best to go down and see them.


Also today the documentation for Ffion's new number plate came back from the DVLA. She had to send for a new tax disc and a new Registration document. For those of you that don't know we got Ffion a personal number plate for her new car for Christmas. We were very lucky and managed to get a really good one. Noel fitted it tonight and it looks brilliant, she was really pleased when she opened it Christmas day, its just been frustrating having to wait before it could be fitted to the car legally.
