Feeling a bit out of sorts this evening.
I feel disappointed, but I don't know why. I'm not even sure the emotion I am feeling just now is disappointment. It just feels that way.
I keep reading about road fuels prices, oil gas and electricity prices, food prices. They seem to be spiralling out of control. I am not ashamed to say that I am very worried about the whole oil price thing. We heat our house and water with oil. I am thinking about spending some of the decorating money on a wood burning stove, but this house wasn't built with a chimney. I would have to put one in, and that would mean major construction work! We have an electric heater in the living room, and a false mantelpiece. I could put a stove in there, and install a chimney in the room behind it - the snooker room. The living room has my bedroom above it, but the snooker room only has a loft. Worth thinking about.
We found out today that our Head Teacher is quitting and going to another school. I was in a meeting with him the other day, and he mentioned he is looking for a holiday home on the west coast. I misheard him, and though he was moving to the west coast, and told him he wasn't allowed to move. Seems it was rather prophetic. Pity I can't prophecy the lottery numbers, eh?
Angus had his dressing changed today. The vet says his foot is healing up very nicely and there is no sign of infection. He can put his (not inconsiderable) weight on it now, but not for a long time. He puked twice in the car on the way there. Nice.
We have my nephew coming to stay this weekend. He is a really nice bloke. Softly spoken, and polite, but I've never seen him with a beer in him LOL I enjoy having him to stay, unless he calls me 'auntie Carol'.
We are supposed to have a decorator come tomorrow to quote us for the external painting. My windows are a mess. I've had folk come before now to give us quotes, but we never hear from them again. Fingers crossed this one wants to work.
I am in a similar condition to Meno just now, and I feel shite. Ah, the joys of being a woman.
