Day 105: 16/12/12 Very little to report today. I got up late enough and went to Mass in town. It's pretty much the same as at home except the choir were doing very liturgical kind of singing and the organ was majorly drowning them out! I text the lads then to see what they were at for the day as I hadn't heard from them all weekend really. Mike was just going to some Christmas dinner when I text and Shane didn't answer yet. There was a picture of him up on Fac...

Day 104: 15/12/12 I woke early enough this morning. I had breakfast and finished Shells book which was very good! It still only 10 in the morning so I said I'd lie down again for a few minutes and with the heat in the room I fell fast asleep again until about 1 o'clock! I didn't do much for the afternoon. There's a walk around the river here near the house that's about 6k long. It must be longer when you count from the house so I don't know exactly how long it ...

Day 103: 14/12/12 I woke this morning to Mam ringing, singing happy birthday down the phone! We skyped then and were chatting for a good while. I opened my birthday presents- delighted with them!

She'll sent me a happy birthday message on what's app- the whole song with illustrations! I was texting Cli...

Day 102: 13/12/12 I got up a bit late this morning and washed, dressed and sorted myself before ringing the agency as I didn't think they give you much time to get ready. There was one morning I rang them at 8 a few weeks ago and they rang back with a job in a few minutes. So I rang around 8 again this morning. They had said to ring after half seven. This morninh they said that most of the work was gone but they'd ring me if any came up, but they didnt ring! Fro...

Day 101: 12/12/12 I think according to someone somewhere the world was supposed to end today. Seen as I'm ahead of ye I can let ye know that ye are safe enough!! No call this morning. I think this week is a write off for teaching! I remembered last night that when I joined the childcare agency I couldn't claim the tax free allowance (or whatever they call it) as I was getting one from the teaching. They had said I could change it for work during the holidays an...
