Bad came and I lived!

Good Evening all

It's 5pm here a bit earlier than I would normally blog
but I'm going zumba then seeing mia-chan to
do girly face packs and nails :D

Yesterday was the absolute worst
I have 2 schools to attend - so thats 2 hours paid work
so why was I out the house for work for 7 hours?
thats because the schools were so far away
a ridiculous amount of miles away
So I took the satnav and prayed for my safety
I managed to arrived at my first school fine
the satnav didnt know where I was at one point
but I guessed where I was
the children were lovely so things were going well

then came the next school i typed it in my satnav
only 50miles away.....0.0
I just thought "right lets get on with it" kinda thing
I set off for work at 11:30am arrived home at 6:30pm
i got so utterly lost and upset
I didnt know where I was nether did the satnav
I was frightened - Im not confident at all being
in far away new places by myself
some people are fine with it - i am not
I found the school - the staff were nice and the children were alright
just the school like the tuesday one were just in the middle of no where
i got back into my car at 4:45pm rang mum sobbing
i couldnt face coming home
i couldnt face getting lost
i couldnt face sitting in endless traffic
i got lost it was pitch black and raining
i do not know how i did not crash into someone to be honest
i got home - dont know how
mum ran me a hot bath and i soaked in it
sat with kip and popu and hazel on my bed
9pm i went to bed and woke up 9am this morning
12hours sleep shows you how worn out i was

got to work today at the office like every friday
i was waiting to express my feelings about traveling
but Amanda-chan was saying exactly what I had just said
we both even said we put at least £30 of fuel into our cars this week
and already its gone she had been doing places more that 90miles
we had both done 90miles in one day
we said when we worked it out that we are actually working
for less than minimum wage 
i felt so relived that i wasnt alone
so my manager has tweaked a few things for us and explained to us
why this term is so bad - traveling wise
next term - january - wont be as bad - apparently
but we will have to see
I have now told my manager i will not be traveling to
those schools in the other cities i am staying in this city
my parents do not want me going that far by myself again
they were as stressed as i was - well mum was anyway

other than that i washed my filthy car from going down
stupid narrow country lanes 
been with my pets, sat around relaxing and reading
and off to zumba shortly


today's dance upload outfit  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-7lOqTkih0
i also found a load of pet vids on my camera today
so im gonna upload up in time!

bye for now
happy to be alive!

A better day with a bad one to follow

Evening Minna-san~

Today I have good news
that my yoga class can return back
into the comfy heated room it was once in
but there was a water leak so we moved to the gym
which is dirty and cold
so to have the news we're finally back to the best room
after so many months is great to hear ^^

other good news
after speaking to my manager about yesterday's journey
i complained that i was out the house for over 4 hours
and only 1 of which i get paid for - it didnt feel worth it
so shes gonna give me more money
a raise after being there 2 weeks!? i cant complain!

Anyway today
I fixed up a necklace by using ribbon for the strap
i love and have to buy anything with black rabbits on!

cute huh
its a locket also

then I recorded a couple of dances to upload
friday and saturday!! :D
then i did a lil work towards xmas cards
how far I actually got
 
but I had to do a lot in prep for work

Got to the school which was easy
i remembered the way from last week
kids were better behaved than yesterdays
i got all the work completed and there was time for games also
so it was nice

came home showered and waiting to go to yoga

tomorrow I hope doesnt come
I have 2 schools to do
both far away i will be traveling an awful lot
and there will probably be a motorway involved also ><
so im really really not looking forward to it
i just hope the kids are good when I arrive

anyway wish me luck!

Motorway Mayhem!

Evening
I write now sitting in pants and a t-shirt
as I was just about to hop into bed
before I realized that I hadn't blogged!

Man I am exhausted!
This morning I made 4 more christmas cards
whilst watching Big wolf on Campus on my laptop
Then I had lunch and wizzed off for work

The school I had to go to was 30miles away
two towns over
i have never traveled this far by myself before
I took the satnav and google map instructions
praying the satnav didnt take me on the motorway
yeah it did.....
i had never been on a motorway before
my mama hasnt even driven on one ether
i was like wetting myself but what can you do
you cant just do a U-turn 
so I continued
as you might guess I am not a confident driver
when I do not know my way
in my city i'm fine anywayy
quite scared at this point as I had no idea
where I actually was
but still I followed the Satnav
which then took me 6miles down a unlite
narrow country lane
yeah it wasnt nice and my car is filthy
I was driving thinking "no school is around here"
there was just fields no housing or buildings 
i thought the satnav took me somewhere else and 
was laughing at me
then I saw a school 0.0

I was happy to have arrived but remember I have
to drive it all again but in the dark and during peak traffic time

the staff were lovely and made me a cup of tea
as the for the students...less to be said

so i left and it took me 2hours to get home
so I had been out the house for 4 hours
and earned £14 doesnt quite seem worth it some how
so I'm gonna say something to my manager
i dont see the point traveling so afar
I could be using those hours to make crafts to sell

anyway heres the dance I uploaded today
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ret4teDXaAo
and I will show you my xmas cards tomorrow

More xmas decorations!!

Evening~

Today I had college in the morning
I stayed there til 1:30
I made these~

what do you think?
these are my Mr. & Mrs christmas tree
I was gonna give the Mr to a guy friend
but mama said hold onto to it for now
so I thought "if I marry I will give it to my husband then" XD


then these are hand stitched
they are going to apart of christmas cards~

then I came home and rested with kip
I slept so bad last night so I was just exhausted
then went out for fuel cus I have some long journeys ahead
of me this week for work!
Then I have been finishing off the xmas decorations
getting stuff work for work ready which took ages
so now I'm gonna do some dance practice
in preparation for tomorrow's dance cover

Glasses and craft donation

Evening all~

yesterday was the 2nd time I forgot to blog!!!!!!
My apologies
I'm not making excuses but I usually blog in the evening time
and yesterday my pets needed attending too as there was so
many fireworks going off last night
and I kinda just forgot
I didnt take my pets home til 10:20pm
we waited til they had stopped

anyway~
today I went into town for the 3rd time this week =.=
for an eye test
lately I have been feeling like my close up work has
gotten worse like I cant always focus
So i went through a long boring test
and they said I can have glasses if I want
I can see far away totally fine
and close up im actually alright there isnt
much to improve on
but when i get tired i do find they become much worse
so i said I'd have them so I have them I should need them
And because of one reason or another I was entitled to
a free pair of glasses as long as they were under £50
so I picked out a pair kinda big framed and purply
to be honest with you the £50 range wasnt great
and I didnt want metal frame so yeah pick em up 23rd

Yesterday I had dinner at a friends house - stew and dumplings!
which was a first for me and the stew was lovely dont rave about dumplings
and my friend is down sizing and so she has been clearing out
a lot of stuff including her craft things
so she brought through bags and bags for me to take home!!!
I was thrilled - christmas come early
mama was not so amused as I already take over the house haha
so today I had to find a place for all this stuff
and re-arrange what I already had
it took hours I'm not even joking
I was so wanting to do make something today but 
I just ran out of time!
here's the mess we're talking about

cleared up now
and I hope to do a bit of dance practice :)


tomorrow I have college /:

Guinea Calender

Hello minna~

Today I was suppose to be at work
but my manager texted to say I wasn't
she had got the schedule mixed up!
So I ended up having the day off!

So I did some jobs in the morning
and a lil dancing also
then this afternoon I went to town with mama ^^
she wanted to start her christmas shopping so I
accompanied her
and managed to pick up this!

next years calender :D
currently I have a personal calender
where you put your own photos/pictures
in for each month
the idea I would draw each month
but I ended up having a break from drawing
and missed 4 months
so this time I thought
"if I can find a nice calender I'll have that instead of the stress"
so yep I found a cute one ^^
mama also brought a guinea calender but a different shape 
and photos to mine 
so we have 24 cute guinea photos to look at XD

came home and read whilst being with pigs
and kippy i needed a rest

then tonight gonna do a bit of dancing
and a few things on my laptop

tomorrow I will be uploading a dance as well

thats all for now~
