tuesday's things

I dislike:

• that Tony is stuck in a job he is way better than and that because of the current economic/ employment circumstances he cannot seem to find anything else, no matter how hard we try. I hate that he is under-appreciated in work and that it's beginning to get him down...seriously get him down. I just want to hug him until someone gives him the job he deserves, in the hopes that my hugs will make him feel better.

• that this is the longest month ever, or at least it seems it whilst we await payday. (Tony's employer was a dickhead and he didn't get paid his full hours this month...but he'll get them next month. Somehow that's supposed to make paying bills and buying food and putting petrol in the car to get to work easier this month. I think not.)

• mowing the lawn. So, I am not doing it. It's as simple as that. So what if it's on its way to being renamed "the Jungle" instead of "The Garden"

• films that are awesome all the way through and then get ruined in the last ten minutes by a shit ending. Case in point- Knowing. I was completely in to it, feeling dark and tense and scared. The special effects were amazingly realistic. And then, the end came. Utter disappointment.

I like:

• having plans to look forward to and nearly having the money to do some stuff (payday is seven days away)- hen night, rugby with friends, The Hangover, dinner with my hubby

• the pile of potentially good books at the side of my bed. There's about twelve 'must-reads' sitting in my bedroom just waiting for me to devour them...when I'm next in a reading mood.

• that I wrote a poem today. I would like to point out that this is my first of 2009. I feel a mixture of shame, relief and hope at this last statement. Maybe it will be the first of many. Let's hope.

I love:

• every moment with Tone. We rock. I love that we rock.
