Get an email to say unfortunatly I have not been succesful in a job I had applied for with a little friendly message at the bottom to say I had better re-check my c.v as I had written I was 92 not 29!! eeeek!!

pull out a so called weed that I recognised but asumed was a meanie and then get told that its actually a passiflora!! I only bought one the other day hence why I recognised it!! doh!

Ring my mother and when she answers and questions why I rang then inform her she rang me, after a few rounds no you rang me I then realise I had actually rang her!! then cannot even remember why I rang….. grrrr

Go to use the camera to find the battery is flat and the memory card is full and get so frustrated until you put the pics on the computer and find my two girls had been busy …. aaahand then feel really bad for muttering rude words and being told off by a nearly 3 year old for my language!!

heres a couple of pics on the card!!

sorry have removed pics for safety reasons
bless em

anyway thats me for this evening, nothing to report

love to all

Ha ha Mookins I lost the plot years ago, but I think everyone has days when you just have to count to ten and start again. Two gorgeous girls you have there.

......... when you look for the teatowel you had a moment ago and find it in the fridge - which explains why the butter is still on the worktop!

....... when you can't find the secateurs that you had in your hand and spend precious minutes trawling the garden, re-tracing your steps, hunting under plants you've just used them on - then find them in your back pocket!

You've only got to look at those two lovely happy faces to be cheered up. They are what counts, not all the other stuff!
It's better to be described as 92 and then find you are only 29 than the other way round. Could be why you didn't get the job but I bet it gave them a laugh! It's good to cheer people up even if you don't mean to - just go on being 'you' Mookins, you make US laugh :o))))

KIDS! ! ! ! !

You're welcome Mookins, it's only the truth. By the way, if you didn't get the job because they thought you were 92 then that's age discrimination!

19 Aug, 2009

 

Hope I look as good as you when I'M 92!!

At least there are some jobs around Mookins. If you can get an interview then I'm sure you'll persuade them to give you the job!! I don't think it is always the best qualified who get the job, it's often the one they like the best.
Good luck! :o))

20 Aug, 2009

 

thats right, I have been applying for anything and everything, so many places have nothing at all so am quite lucky really

am sure I could make em smile once I get my foot in the door hehehe
