quiddities

Have submitted a enquiry form with a museum. Fingers crossed.

I have at least 200 books. I think I’ve read about half of them. The rest are impulse buys from charity shops and course books from Uni. I really, REALLY, should get round to reading them all. I’ve stopped buying books until I have done so. The main obstacle left if the library, my card is always maxed out and I always have reservations just waiting to be picked up. Must find willpower!

Bridgework, bah. £1k arrgghhh. At least I managed to stall until after Christmas for that payout.

Day 2 of tidying the box room. That’s right day TWO of the BOX room. How, HOW, did I manage to fit so much stuff in here. Yeah, I know get off the internet and tidy… but it’s soooo BORING.

Had to cancel an appointment due to work and now bit of the tooth I was supposed to have filled has broken off grrrr... Hopefully there’ll be enough left to save when I go again in 11 days.

Yup, that old excuse. But honestly, I just can’t be bothered. Roll out of bed, put on uniform, scrape back hair, go to work. Day off? Roll out of bed, put on sloppy clothes, slop about. Got to stop.

I’ve already made a start on this. My teeth were a mess – been to dentist, having lots of lovely expensive work sigh but at least when it’s done they’ll look better, my breath will be better (god, I hope it’s not bad now), and I’ll feel better for it, no more woe is me my teeth are horrible.

Hair. Just had that cut. Had lovely long, long locks but they were tired and messy. Now I just have lovely long locks. Plus I can do more with it now it’s a manageable length.

Started putting make up on. Well, I have for the past three days. The test will be to see if I keep it up. I don’t use loads of slap, just enough to even my skin tone and what not.

What really needs work? Erm, well, I’d like to loose a few pound (ok a zillion pounds) because that makes a difference but I am going to have that as a separate target as I can still be pretty and fat.

Clothes. My wardrobe is sooo old. Been looking at old photos and realising I really haven’t done a major clothes shop, well, ever. But first off I need some new bras. The ones I’ve got at the moment are more ‘comfy’ than ‘supportive’. Need a bit more ompf on the bra front then we’ll move onto what goes over it.

Hair. As in legs, coughfacecough, and erm, anywhere else it is but isn’t pretty.

Nails. Yeah, how do you do them again?

Feet. Byes byes dry skin. Or so I’d like. Pedicure please!

Think that’s about it for the wish list for now!

Starting the weight loss thingy again. Haven’t put what I lost back on but just following a new plan so have decided a fresh start in recording.
First goal is 5%. Hopefully by the end of summer.

Mother finally dragged me to a dentist after she had to put up with my pathetic wailing when I got an abscess which was ‘orrible though amused everyone else when the pain went and my cheek swelled up like a demented hamster.
But yes, dentist. Nice bloke but expensive. Yup, private not NHS but I think it’ll be worth it seeing as most of the work needing doing is repairing what my last NHS dentist did! I’ve gotta have 5 teeth out (though 2 of ‘em don’t count as they’re wisdom) and 6 fillings. Ok, so most of the fillings are new work but all the rest are on already damaged teeth from the previous guy.
But oh the cost. It’s gonna be between £1000-£7000!! It all depends on what I have done to the missing teeth. The really expensive option is implants which I think I’ll have to by pass for now and settle for a couple of falseys at the back. Either way it’s gonna upset my goal of getting debt free for a wee bit.
After all my dedicated teeth brushing I’ve been told that it’s my diet that’s damaged them all. Sneaky, sneaky secondary factor scowl.

I thought with all the sorting and chucking that came from moving house my room would be almost spartan by now but no, no it isn’t. sigh The curse of the smaller room. If I had stayed put then it would be alllll sorted but now due a drastic reduction in storage I still have a way to go. If it’s not done soon then I’m just gonna have to resort to a couple of bin liners!

Yay! Tidying up to move house and we find old baby records with my blood type on, score!
Still want to donate though.

2 weeks today and I shall be there. Really can’t wait, I NEED my holiday.

In 26 days I shall be setting off to visit my friends up in Edinburgh. SO EXCITED !!!

Oh god, it’s getting worse. I really, REALLY need to do this ASAP. Ans I don’t have a day off until Monday, and then I’ll just kip and it’ll be ANOTHER week before I even consider it. Drastic action is needed. I’d do it now but I’ve gotta get up in 8 hours. Excuses, excuses, and one day an avalanche of stuff will bury me!!!

My cousin is a driving instructor for the police and has told my nan he’d be happy to give me lessons for a tiny fee. Wheee!!

I’ve had my check up and have a new prescription (in fact it’s improved, oh so smug!). The problem is I suck at picking frames, especially now they’re all chunky and statement making. Need to grab a friend or two and get them to help me.

It’s been 3 years since I last had an eye test and seeing as my glasses are literally falling apart I best scoot along to my opticians!!

and I’ve just lost a filling. Suppose this better get moved up the list. cries like a sissy

Oh for crying out loud! Just had my anti-depressants changed. Need to find out if I can still give blood whilst on these and then if I can wait 6 months for my system to settle down. grrr..

Gah. I was intending donating blood next week but I’e got a cold so I can’t until a couple of weeks after I’m better. Think I’ll leave it to the New Year, actually, think I have to know. Stupid colds.

I have too much stuff. I think this main stems from my time at Uni as I had two lots of stuff – one for Uni life and the other for home life. I’m not at Uni anymore but I still have everything but this time in just one room. Not the only reason, the fact I’m a bit of a hoarder doesn’t help.
So, declutter. Declutter, declutter, declutter. groans
