First Derby trip 2017~

Evening~~~

Today I got up at 7:40am
I hadn't slept that well but I knew I was meeting lynn
so I got my act together

I set off about 8:35am
I got to the bus station and my bus was just pulling in :D
So I was able to meet lynn earlier than 9:30am as arranged
and a derby bus was there so we got to derby early too :)
The weather was a bit drizzly and really cold but didnt put us off

we had a hot chocolate then did some craft shopping ^^
I was able to pick up the bits i needed and more!
Everything I got today was ether cheap, on offer, or reduced 
I dont think anything I got today was full price!
So i pick these things up whilst I see them as I know I will use them
and might as well get them whilst theyre cheap right

We had lunch i had soup and a roll which was good and filling
then we hit some charity shops
and any other shops we passed
finally we finished with a cup of tea and i had a piece of toffee cake *0* which was amazing!!

We didnt have to wait long for the bus back home
so we got back and went our separate ways
and just as i arrived to my bus stop the bus pulled up
i cant believe how lucky i was for buses today to say ive needed to take 4 buses
and mine to get into the city is a 25min wait!!!!!!! so miss it and its a bugger!

I got home fine
very tired and achy i have to say
saw my pets and showed mum what i brought :3
since then ive applied for a Teaching Assistant job at a primary school
sorted all the bits i brought today out

tomorrow im having a day of pleasing one's self
as  i have many things i would like to do :)

ok i will show ya what I got from derby~

from a charity shop £2.49 and 'new without box'
a pair of hair waves! Ive wanted a go with some but theyre not cheap
and i thought for two quid its not the end of the world if i dont get on with them
ive since had ago and theyre awesome!! Mum likes them too :3

I love the design on them!

2 bags of fabric scraps for £1 each - i picked these two as i noticed
they had rabbit print fabric in them :D

a pillow case for cutting up 49p

fabric pieces £1 each - total bargin

Fur pieces £1.25 each another bargin its what i use to make guinea plushes from :3

then a load of fabric scraps ranging from 5p to 10p
I picked a lot of xmas fabric as its a good time of year to buy it in ready

some make-up sponges what i have wanted for ages simply to try a nail varnish technique with but i could only find them for as cheap as a £1
but I knew I could find them better than that
so here we are 25p!!! The socks, my fluffy socks have holes in so ive been hunting for a some and i found these 2 pairs for £2.50 and that is the cheapest ive seen em

now this was a bargin 
a skirt from 'warehouse' but i brought it from charity shop
I paid £2.50 for it
when I got home I realized it still had it's original store tag on
it was only £40.....i loved the skirt but no way would i have ever paid £40 for it
so getting it at £2.50 was just amazing!

finally my last thing
now this is a bit different

its a cross stitch - i do enjoy cross stitch
and this just called to me i looked and looked at it
it was reduced from £26 to £13
I RARELY use a cross stitch design i HAVENT designed
I like making my own design
but this just called to me and i really liked it so decided to buy it!
im not even into bridal stuff
but i thought it was cute :3
gonna take ages!!!!

so thats my buys :D

Kitty Apron

Good Evening~

I slept pretty well last night
but I was exhausted

I got up at 8:30am
I went on my laptop for a bit
and I cant remember what else I did to pass the time
I rang the agency saying that I didnt want to be a dinner lady anymore
My body hurt to stand in the cold or stand for an hour full stop
after negotiating it was decided that I will only do 2 week instead of 4
i will always be inside too, so i dont get cold and hurt or the anxiety before
i go there wondering if i will be put outside.
so it seemed fair
what he did say tho was the school was very pleased with my work and liked me a lot ^^
so I was pleased about that at least~

School today i was stood on the spot for almost an hour
scraping food into a bucket -_____- very demeaning job
and quite depressing seeing so much food wasted
but still it was experience and all the woman are lovely to me ^^

i came home and mum had done me soup again
i wasnt too cold luckily :)
then i went to sleep for half hour
got up and went for a cold walk with mum ><

since then ive mainly been with pets
and sorting bits out
tiffin seems to be doing well :)

Tomorrow Ive gotta be up like 7:30am
as Im meeting lynn in the city center at 9:30am
as we are traveling to another city center - derby
i havent seen her since august! which is totally shocking
so i am looking forward to seeing her and going derby
as i havent been there in a while and i can only pick certain craft
items from their marker~

speaking of craft this is helina's apron i made for her
house warming present. i am yet to give it to her
i made the neck strap look like the cat tail

Got a diary

Hello one and all

I woke up in the night
i did not feel good
i felt drunk
i staggered to the toilet, heavy footed, leaning against walls
i couldnt walk straight
i felt off my head, the world spun but i hadnt been drinking or anything
not sure what it was all about really but i didnt feel much pain at all whilst being
in that state so it quite nice
i climbed back in bed and fell asleep instantly
strange~

Today my little prince seems to be doing well :3
Im keeping a close eye on him
he seems to like his usual self

the agency rang and hes got me more work at my old primary school once again X3
another one rang about some teaching assistant work but never got back to me
i dont want to do the dinner lady work anymore
so i will call tomorrow and tell them that i will quit due to it making my illnesses worse
cus of how cold i got yesterday today i hurt major time. my joints felt inflamed
and for £10 its not worth the pain

today at the school
they put me inside XD  i had wrapped up MEGA warm
and it turns out it wasnt needed!
i was inside spreading cheese on crackers for the young children who couldnt do it
i was wiping tables and stacking chairs
its all very mundane and not very rewarding 

i came home and mum had done me soup ready~
which was lovely of her
after lunch i wanted to go and get a pocket diary
simply to write down all my agency jobs cus im not gonna remember soon!
I got a diary for £1, it has peter rabbit on the front :3
I also managed to find some coloured pens i wanted for  doing my japanese with ^^

came home and fell asleep exhausted
needed energy for tonights yoga

yoga we got to the room
this is the first yoga lesson for me and mum this year
and a different lady was there 0.0
she was covering for karen as karen had to whisk off to her child's school
but she was very good and did a very relaxing session~

now im just with prince
gonna sit with him and a hot chocolate ^^


tomorrow i am the school doing dinner lady work once again 
here are my nails for this week~

I was a dinner lady!

Good Evening

My Tiffin is doing loads better :D
He's eating a lot by himself which is excellent and he's doing poos as well
he seems more himself as he's outside a lot and eating the grass he's guarding his girls
and last night he sat on my lap for the first time in a week
I love him so much
and im so glad he managed to pull through whatever made him poorly
he's just got to finish his medication today
little prince~
so today i made the vets a thank you card :3
he wouldnt be here without them

I took sleeping tablets last night and asked not to be woken up
i slept til 8:15am and i felt much better
it was the first time in a good week since id had a proper sleep
i was losing sleep over tiffin

I got up but where as i usually have breakfast, i chose to wait til 9am
as i wouldnt be eating til almost 2pm
so i cleaned tiffin out, made his cage tidy
he played outside and ate some grass which is lovely to see :)

This morning I was on my laptop, reading - reading an amazing book currently!
and then at 11:30 i set off for the school
i was early but i was hoping some one would show me the ropes if i was early
but no one was really forth coming with information i had to ask for it

the school was lovely i was highly impressed
one the best schools ive ever been to actually
there was 400 children! so there was quite a few dinner time staff
they were all so nice to me despite me being an outsider and a lot younger than them
the kids were good too
so it went all fine
the only draw back
IT WAS BLOODY FREEZING!!!
Honest to god i was cold
i had wrapped up warm but not warm enough it would seem
so tomorrow im wearing woolly socks as today
when i got home it took me 45mins to be able to feel my toes 0.0
i was so cold. 
mum had made me lunch ^^

then i went to bed
i just wanted to be warm and get my circulation going once again
i woke up at 4:30 XD 
must have needed the sleep im guessing
then ive just been on my laptop, sorting birthday presents out, been with tiffin

next do a bit of dance practice and yoga~
tomorrow im at the school again being a dinner lady :)

here are helina's tea towels i brought for her house warming present
theyre only plain and i stitched a cat face on one and the 
character for Neko (cat) on the other :3

Another day working hard as a TA

Konbanwa

Tired ><
I got up at 6:45am once again for school
I got tiffin out and it seems he has managed some pellets!!
I put some guinea pig pellets in his bowl cus he likes them sometimes XD
im so glad hes eaten some pellets though as he hasnt touched them in a whole week!
shows he is able to eat hard food just fine
bless him i was relieved
he had managed other pieces of food in his hutch also!

School was hectic
i had 6 students to read to
I had a group doing some maths with them
I watched 16 children playing in the court yard
yeah i had some responsibilities today!
But it feels good to be trusted like that
and everything went just fine too :D
so many students gave me hugs
and a year 3 gave me a little key chain ><
jozu is loved and i am grateful to them all

at lunch time i was lining the children up for school lunch
i noticed today's pudding they were serving.....butterscotch tart!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh freakin' hell that was my favourite when i was there!
to see it again made my eyes almost sparkle! i was so happy to see it still going!
and the cook (who was the same i cook i had back in the day) she gave me a piece *0*
I was sooooooo happy
and ahhhhh it tasted of memories~
good lunch time for sure~

during lunch time~
i was talking to tom (student teacher and 22 years old)
i was talking to him about this boy who as of this week got in contact with me on facebook
i told tom the guy wants to meet up, hes single and on about bringing a friend who was in my form
tom said to me "yeah theres only one thing hes interested in"
i said "what?"
tom "well you"
eep >< i hadnt thought of that!!!!
tom was like "seriously!? how can you be that naive!?"
i was just worried about it being awkward now i know for sure its gonna be awkward
but i dont want chicken out as the guy was lovely to me in school
basically we shared DT (design technology graphics) for 2 years and i was the ONLY girl in the whole class! but he stuck with me and kept me company and helped me. he didnt have to at all
and we became friends :)

during the end of lunch i did some display work
beats sitting round doing nothing~
the afternoon was pretty simple
at the end of the day i stayed til 4pm i cleaned up and stuff
tom saw me out as i wont see him til february 1st now
he was like "enjoy your date" i could have kicked his face in XD

got home and i was tired
but happy when i saw tiffin playing outside ^^
sorted some fabric out in case i manage to do some sewing tomorrow~

tomorrow im gonna have ago being a dinner lady!!!
well excited ^^
here's a couple of things i made for new years party
a black choker and a hair clip~

My First Paid Day of Working as a Teaching Assistant!~

I am shattered!!!

Not only did I not sleep well I got up at 6:45am ><
I had such a mad rush this morning but I managed to give tiffin all he needed
he has more of his personality back i can tell
as he fighting treatment and just being defiant 
so someone is feeling better!!!
But he still isnt eating his food but he did managed to eat other things

I got to school at 8:20am
10 mins early for work ^^
the teacher i work with is lovely
and so many children gave me hugs and were dead happy i was back X3
Jozu is loved by many X3

I didnt get a break as it was wet break so we had to watch the children indoors
at lunch I left to go home and feed tiffin he was very hard work
i quickly ate my lunch and then went to school

the rest of lunch time i went and did some display work
then that lesson i worked on the display
the afternoon wasnt too bad
we didnt get a break tho so i have worked solidly today

i had vets at 4:30pm usually when i was student at the school i went home at 3:30pm
same time as the children but now im paid staff i had to stay til 4pm...
so I stayed helping out then I left very promptly as I had to rush home and get tiffin sorted
and get to the vets! i felt a bit rude the way I suddenly left but I explained to some people that I had the vets to go to. hope they dont think me rude >< I will go in fresh tomorrow with a smile~

tiffin at the vet
he was very stubborn in fact he embarrassed me really
as the vet tried to examine him and tiffin was having none it
in the end the vet gave him a injection that will stimulate his tummy
he looked so peed off honestly
so when i see him like that it makes me feel like hes improving because before
he was just in a ball in pain

got to give him his other bits and pieces tonight
tomorrow morning its same again~
mum isnt home for lunch tomorrow so i wont have to come home for him
just hope he manages to eat in the day!

the school have booked me for a morning on February 1st 
which i was thrilled about but I am suppose to be doing some dinner time work at another school that day so ive had to alter the times so i can get from one school to another
but its worked out
I do my best!
and i hope tiffin tries his best for me!

My nurarihyon figure that came today :D

Keeping him going

Evening~

After spending a lot of the night worrying like hell about tiffin
i woke up this morning shattered
I got up at straight away went to get him
it seemed he had tried a bit of grass in his cage and possibly some hay as well.
he had passed poos 
so that was all a positive as after yesterday he didnt chose to eat at all
so i got him out

we started giving him his medication, syringe fed him
then i let him outside for a bit
he ate a little bit of grass
but he did seem more himself today like more energetic and his personality was there
he is still far from perfect though.

I have had him inside regularly 
offering him any food he may like
to which he has turned his nose up
so ive had to syringe feed him and also syringe water into him
he looks quite fed up with it all at the moment
started fighting back and growling when being fed.
im taking that as a sign hes feeling better
today i mushed up banana and gave that to him instead of the vet syringe food he hates
i also mushed up pineapple later in the day
both her really liked

just got another round of vet syringe food and medication and a quick drink
then hes all done for today
i really thought he'd have to go to the vets today
but he doesnt seem to need it
hes still not well though
if he just ate honestly all his issues would go!

this morning i went for a walk with my ipod and new head phones ^^
it was good to get out as it was sunny and really mild
ive been doing a bit of japanese each day also
i cut some strips of fabric as i want to make mum something for her birthday
i got stuff ready for tomorrow as its my first day of work! my first agency job!
and fittingly it is at my old primary school - were i trained
i will be there monday and tuesday as a teaching assistant 
i have got a proper winter outfit prepared as the classroom i will be working in is freezing!! it opens onto a court yard and so the room gets very cold very quickly
im looking forward to going back
the wednesday til february i will be a dinner lady at another school!
my mum used to be a dinner lady at my old primary school~

i hope i sleep tonight
im so very tired and still not 100% myself but i know its because im stressed about tiffin
stress makes my physical and mental condition worse
im hoping he improves tomorrow

tomorrow i have to get up and get ready and need to be at school before 8:30am
i have to give tiffin his syringe food and medication
i need to come home at lunch time to feed him again
go back to school
come home at home time and feed him again
then at 4:30pm he has a vet appt
tomorrow will be rush rush rush

a place i am looking forward to

my bed <3
with my pokemon bed sheets on~
i will never have a double bed i love my bed too much!
