Feb. 22nd, 2011 10:07 pmI've been planning my annual leave - Even with every Friday 'off' (ie I work longer hours M-T so I don't go in Fridays), it feels like I haven't had time off for ages - I have always used my leave on an 'emergency/mental health' basis, in that as I don't often go away, I work until things seem too much then book a week off, my new role means I can't do this and I have to negotiate leave and get cover and ask permission. But I have a week off in 3 weeks, and then I have Easter week and the last May Bank Holiday week. All of this is of no interest to you, but it makes things seem more manageable to me!
I also managed to negotiate with my TM and future work colleague a change to the days I'll be working next week. Collegue wanted Mon and Wed, I wanted Tues and Thurs - so now we're doing Mon and Thurs! That way she has her priority child care needs met and I get to keep the quiz night I go to. Yay for flexibility. Although when that starts I'll be back working 'til 9.30 twice a week.
Can't win 'em all, I guess.
In other mundane gripes, I'm finding it impossible to D/L H5-0 and SPN takes the entire day. DOn't know why, my general internet speed seems fine, no problems browsing etc. Hmm. I guess I'll wait for H5-0 on dvd and devote the whole day to SPN.
My cat is now sitting on my arm and blocking the screen, but I'm determined to persevere to post the best news of all - Mum has had another lump in her other boob, doctor didn't like the look of it and sent her for more tests etc. We've been fretting a while. Today she got the all clear. Lumps are cysts and nothing to worry about. She's been scanned, prodded and xrayed and we can relax for a bit longer. YAY!
