OMG Nerves

[shopgirljoan]

Off to Surrey in an hour or so! I have a busy week with two job interviews which is awesome, but I had a meltdown about not having done the washing yet. I have plenty of sodding time to get my clothes ready, and I've done a massive cleanup, I still started to feel so messy and gross like I live in a junkie squat or something! Then the dress I was going to wear today didn't fit like I'd have liked and I ended up having a massive crying jag on the phone to my mum, all about things I should be excited about ffs. It's partly that Paul has gout and a corn which needs to be removed and can hardly walk. He's in so much pain and has been signed off work for 10 days and is thinking about going to his parents for the week so he doesn't think about drinking or getting up and doing stuff. His mum is going to be mean to him. I had to put him together a package of books and food when I helped him home last night. He's so miserable and I might not see him for a week and I don't know where this leaves any of our normal activities or his work - it may have turned everything on its head!

Meanwhile, I wonder if anyone would like to see some old family photos? Ironically none of them are the side of the family I'm seeing, as my mum scanned and sent them. They're behind the cut.




Various of my late grandma in bad prints. The redheaded young lady is my mum :)


Various from mum's family holidays as a child (she'd had them all out to re-visit the places on Google Earth!)


Ditto


The funniest photo ever from my parents wedding, where nobody is looking at the camera! ETA: I lied! My grandma whose birthday it is is next to dad there along with other people I'm seeing today:)


Me, many moons ago


My first party, where I made an almighty twat of myself, I think I was 12 or 13.


Air guitar heee!

Well that was fun! Time to get dressed now.
