I'm so happy to get to the weekend this week. After a crazy Wednesday getting to the CS, Thursday was a bit calmer. I did my usual class at the gym, then did a few errands picking up and paying for my new varifocal specs (I'm still getting used to them!) and renewing some books at the library, before heading home for lunch.
After lunch I had to collect LB from school for a dental appointment with the orthodontist. It didn't go too well, for one reason or another, which I won't go into here, although not for the reasons you might think. Anyway, there's nothing to worry about, but it did leave me feeling a bit upset and disappointed, as the experience was a pretty negative one on account of the attitude of the consultant whom I found to be quite shockingly unprofessional in his manner. Anyway, I'm over it now, and not letting it get me down. I can't do anything about someone else's negativity, it's their problem.
Today, I was at the CS again and thankfully the trains were back to normal, so I got there and back easily. I was working with a volunteer I haven't worked with before who was good fun and a character, which made it quite enjoyable. I'll be working with her again next week whilst the manager is away for a few days.
I spent most of the day sorting through and pricing an extremely nice donation. All I can say is that if the donated clothes are anything to go by, the donor's current wardrobe must be amazing and I'd love to be a fly on their wall. It's really fascinating to see what some people donate. It does make you realise how much wealth there is out there in places. This particular donation was made up of mostly dresses, which were in very good condition and of course, I just had to try the odd item on, as many of them were nearer my size than many we get in the shop. I didn't buy anything though, as they were a little too expensive for my budget.
After another busy day, tonight I have kicked back and enjoyed watching Gardener's World. I now can't wait to get out in the garden tomorrow as lots of my lettuce seedlings are really coming on and many other seedlings need potting on before I plant them out. I'm being a bit cautious as the weather forecast is predicting a cold spell next week and I don't want to lose what I've grown so far.
There will definitely be a gardening post on it's way to you this weekend. What are your plans for the weekend?
