Laugh - I nearly wet myself.........
Has anybody else seen Miranda on the Beeb. If you haven't give it a look in, it's hysterical. Comedienne Miranda Hart calls it a semi autobiographical portrayal of her life. The social ineptitude of this woman is beyond words. Well done Miranda on a brilliant piece of comedy.She desperately wants to get it on with an old friend she's fancied for years but all attempts to create a "moment" between them are thwarted, usually by her. Last night saw her stuck in a plastic child's chair, running and falling flat on her face, trying to learn to Tango (and pouncing on some poor unsuspecting customer in her shop) and being mortally embarrassed by her Mum who is trying to find her a husband in the personal ads, and keeps trying to show her photos from her nudist holiday.
I'm not doing it justice so please have a look in.
Another thing that had me in stitches last night was Kim Woodburn's challenge on "I'm a celebrity get me out of here". She was sealed in a perspex box and put under water where they dropped yabbies and cockroaches on her along with golden balls she had to open and retrieve stars from. Her conversation all the time she was in the box , telling the nasty critters "oh you stink you nasty beggars" and "if you bite me again I'll bite you back" had my sides aching with laughter. I think she's a real character anyway, and love the way she interacts with the others. Whether it's all a put on who knows but it's certainly entertaining. Good on you Kim, not bad for a 67 year old.
Don't know if I'll continue to watch the series now Jordan's arrived, I'm afraid I find her insufferable. I would have thought given her son Harvey's recent health scares she had more need to be staying out of the lime light for a while and focusing on him, but then again maybe in reality she's not the attention seeking hussy she appears to be.

Dropping like flies!
As I have previously posted my Aunt is unwell, so right now I'm visiting her nearly everyday: fetching her shopping, sorting her medication, and keeping her company.
Now my Dad seems to be getting ill. He's had the doc out several times having developed a rattle in his lungs, however now he seems to be having problems with his sugar levels too. Having had diabetes for years he is very good at monitoring his sugar levels and keeping them quite regular, but these last few days he's been all over the place. He awoke the other night feeling all funny so checked his levels and he was way down at 2.5. I'm getting quite concerned about it.
My Mother in law went in to hospital today to have her knee replaced so she is going to be needing a little extra help for a while, and my father in law has been having funny fainting fits.
My Babes is in a lot of pain again having got more protruding discs, although this time it's in his neck, and is waiting to hear back about an operation date.
To top it all Mouse has a dreadful head cold and is snuffling about the place.
I promise I am not putting anything in the water but they're dropping like flies all around me. So be warned, I may be hazardous to your health!!!!!

Human Behaviour
I was standing at the bus stop the other day, and just a couple of yards away a water main cover had been oozing mud (granted, due to all the rain recently it looked more like oil) on the pavement. There wasn't heaps of it but it was a small shallow puddle.
Anyway, as I stood there. watching the people walking by I was amazed by how many people looked at the puddle and then looked upwards as if this black slick was a deposit from a huge bird or somehow some giant tap was dripping on the pavement.
Why do we do that? Is it that we are so taken aback by the sudden appearance of something out of the norm that we suspect divine or alien interference of some kind? Do we suspect someone has thrown it out of a window, or that someone is hanging out the window watching us to see our reaction?
I also found it fascinating the lengths people would go to, to avoid standing in the puddle - most didn't just step over it, but stepped to the sides as far as they could get away from it - was this in case it should suddenly leap from the ground and attack them?
In the 10 mins I stood waiting only one couple walked through it and they were so deep in conversation they didn't notice until it was too late, but even they looked at the puddle then looked skywards!
What bizzarre things we are!

Sweet Sixteen
OMG last night whilst surfing the channels with Mouse came across a thing on MTV called "My Sweet 16" the gist of which seems to be rich kids organising and having a 16th birthday party.
Turned out the first girl featured was actually turning 15. This mega beatch first had a party to give out her invites. For this she was punted (or whatever you do with a gondola) around a lake dressed up to the nines whilst she repeatedly swore and bitched about being in the boat, even though it had been her idea. Then having returned to her garden she used a megaphone (and it was a regular sized garden) to call out her friends to come out to accept their invitations, which by the way were in DVD form so they could have keepsakes!!.
Her party theme was an old style Venetian Court for which she wanted jesters, so needless to say 2 little guys came out and showed off their dancing skills much to the girl and her friends amusement (personally I thought it was insulting to the guys but they were obviously happy to oblige).
Then at the actual party she had several (one assumes) close friends who made up her courtiers. She was so rude and nasty to them screaming at them to get in line and hold their masks at the exact position she wanted, bitching because they were laughing at the outfits she'd made them wear. Mouse said if her friend behaved like that she would have gone home and left her to it.
She had one of the jesters dress as a cop and perform a striptease down to his boxers (15 years old - what is her Mother thinking). Then Mum and Dad having spent $300,000 on this party gave her what she asked for as a gift a term studying in a school in Paris. How she thank dear old Mum and Dad - snatched the microphone from Mum and yelled "Hey Mother F*****s I'm going to France" Who are these people?
Mouse and I were utterly astounded even though the swearing was bleeped I'm sure even Mouse knew what she was saying. Mouse was disgusted by her behaviour, one wonders if the girls friends behave the same or if they just put up with it because she's a rich brat.
The best thing about the whole programme was the photo shoot she wanted for her birthday pictures. She had this poor horse wearing a horn head piece to make it look like a unicorn so she could be a fantasy princess. The horse didn't like it (how strange!) so threw its head back in an attempt to dislodge it and smacked her in the face with the horn. It was so funny and you couldn't help thinking well done horse. Needless to say, she wanted off the horse right away and bitched that it was a horrible horse and had ruined her photos.
When these parents watch back the programme do they think OMG we've created a monster or do they just think WOW our baby's on MTV, sadly I think it'll be the latter!

What a difference a day makes......
.......24 little hours.
Wednesday night off to bed all is well. Thursday morning awoken by the phone at 7a.m. Voice screaming Kerri, Kerri down the phone. After a few startled seconds realised it was my Aunt she had fallen and been unable to get up. Rushed up there, got her picked up and thought she may have broken her leg. Phoned NHS24 , yadda yadda yadda ambulance arrives off to hospital for checks.
Followed her up in the car, am asked to come through and sit with her as she is quite agitated. By now they were suspecting a mini stroke had caused her to fall and they were sending her for a brain scan to confirm. 30 minutes later Doc says "good news its not a stroke but bad news there is a secondary tumour in her brain." Whoa, back up there, what?
How very strange that conversation is - we both understand perfectly well what she is saying as she is telling us but it's so surreal. Doc is wonderful, tells us she knows it's a big shock and do we have any questions? What do you ask? The thing you want to ask is how long?
My Aunt is quite matter of fact, "these things happen" she says. We all knew it'd probably be cancer that would get her in the end, after all she's been a heavy smoker for years but still it seems unexpected.
People may criticise me for sharing this, but I find it quite cathartic to write it down. I'm not looking for sympathy, I just want to put it out of my head for a bit then take it in again more slowly, if that makes sense. It does to me anyway, and I guess that's all that really matters. We are lucky in that we have time, all may it be short, so many people do not. The adage "live each day as if it's your last" seems to have renewed meaning.
There may be some tears, but certainly not from her, it is not in her nature to feel sorry for herself, and I am more than willing to keep laughing with her right till the end.

Recovering.....
Not from my birthday celebrations, but from another bloody bout of cold/flu/sore throat stuff. I seem to be getting more than my fair share this year, think I better get some extra vitamins inside me.
I have been miserable all week, missing out on 2 meetings, a meal with a friend, a trip to the pictures and a friends 80's theme 40th birthday party which I was really looking forward to. It's the busiest my social calendar has been in ages and I missed the lot.
However I am not going to moan on heaps, I have managed to read 2 books this week, both Joanne Fluke murder mysteries. I really enjoy them, they are an easy read with believable characters and a good amount of suspects to keep me guessing for a bit. I usually do figure out who the killer is early on but then I tend to do that with most mysteries.
Also had heaps of postcards this week and some letters from my new found pen pals in Finland, Germany, and America. They really cheered me up.
Thanks to GGOM by the way, for posting about sky player, after a bit of palaver have managed to download some of the episodes from Season 4 of Bones that I missed. Enjoyed opener of Season 5 too, so glad to have it back. What about True Blood folks? - I'm still undecided will give it a couple of weeks. Don't think I'm going to enjoy the new Stargate Universe though, I found it a bit too confusing, however it could just be because I was poorly so will give it another chance too.
Saw a quirky little movie this week too from Lovefilm called "Is anybody there" with Michael Caine. It's about a young boy who lives with his parents in a old peoples home and how disconnected they all are. Cue Michael Caine as a new but reluctant resident who befriends the little boy and tries to bring some life into the place. It was endearing, funny, sad and at times painful but worth the watch. Babes even enjoyed it and I didn't think it would be his type of film at all.

Today is my Birthday so I thought I'd show you some of my lovely gifts. I got beautiful handmade cards from my kids and some money plus
gorgeous bag from my bruv Ewan, Sandra, Holly, Rhea and Fern
excellent book I wanted from Babes
yummy jelly snakes and turkish delight from Mouse
neat candy bouquet from Peanut
and my favourite a set of vouchers from Napkin, which I can trade in at a time of my choosing. An excellent gift idea because its so personal and it didn't cost her a penny (she is a poor student after all) She also bought me a bag of my favourite jelly babies but I'm afraid I've scoffed all of them already!!
lovely body scrub set from my Uncle Billy
gorgeous bag from my bruv Ewan, Sandra, Holly, Rhea and Fern
excellent book I wanted from Babes
yummy jelly snakes and turkish delight from Mouse
neat candy bouquet from Peanut

An excellent gift idea because its so personal and it didn't cost her a penny (she is a poor student after all) She also bought me a bag of my favourite jelly babies but I'm afraid I've scoffed all of them already!!First and Last
So reports for duty on Tuesday, have to tell them how much money I have on me (security?) am given a key card so as to be able to operate the till. I say hello to another member of staff who asks me if I can see to the magazine returns (no problem have done this hundreds of times in previous jobs). Go behind the counter to stack some returns and the staff member says "cheerio I'm off to do some shopping."
That's it I'm on my own!. There is a supervisor on duty but she is through the back in the office "just buzz if you need me". WTF - Is this the norm nowadays? I would never have expected someone to cope on their own on the first day when I trained staff. I'm all for not looking over someones shoulder, and allowing them to get on with it but I felt as if I'd been thrown overboard without a life jacket.
The store was really busy and I got myself so worked up trying to serve everyone quickly so as not to get queues building up. I was buzzing the supervisor every 5 mins it felt like and people were getting so impatient. I kept apologizing and saying it was my first day could they please bear with me (until I was told not to tell customers it was my first day because they might take advantage of me?)
Some customers were changing their minds about what they wanted, they had some cigarettes on special, and after you'd scanned the brand they'd asked for they would say "Oh whats that ones, I'll have them instead" not really a problem you'd think but I'd have to buzz again to get an entry voided. (we are not allowed to do it ourselves).
Didn't get my break till 3.45 and even then only got 5 mins. I came out at 5p.m and thought right never again.
Perhaps I am being a big girls blouse and perhaps I am not in touch with how things are in the workplace but quite frankly I don't care. I would never treat a trainee member of staff like that so why should I accept it. The staff I met were friendly enough, but the job is obviously not for me!
