GeddaGripLou.....

I was feeling a bit down.... can't be cheery all the time can we? If I was cheery all the time, someone'd have to check my handbag for Prozac! Anyhoo, I'm normal (ish) I have my ups and I have my downs.

I'm in my wallowing phase at the moment; I have cups of tea and make little or no impression tidying the house. This in turn gets me down so I make another cup of tea and wallow a bit more.... God, even I'm bored of myself so bless you if you've continued to read!

The Entrepreneur called, she's off to the Ryder Cup today. More accurately she's parked on the M4 due to a 'police incident,' and I didn't have the heart to tell her that play's been suspended due to the fairways flooding. I apologised for my mood and we worked through some updates on some writing I've been tinkering with....

When I put down the phone my curiosity was ignited, I was intrigued to try and find out what constituted a 'police incident.' (See I am still alive inside my shell of doom...) It turns out someone may have jumped from a bridge onto the motorway. How awful must you feel to be able to do that?

I've snapped out of said malaise.

On a BIG up-note, a twelve year old (who is talented, witty, clever and very perceptive...) thinks I look/act like Susannah Constantine in the new TV parody starring Trinny and Susannah.  . ........................Hey wait a cotton-pickin-minute! I've just read the blurb on this programme and it says.... 
'High maintenance: Miss Constantine meanwhile is portrayed as an emotional lush always with a wine glass in hand and incapable of coping without her personal assistant'        ..........................hmmmmmmm!   ........................... Actually that does sound like me!


That's me on the left....

Here's the link to the show, it looks jolly funny. (Not one for the kidlets!) Spoof Trinny and Susannah

  1. You are allowed to let tidying go every once in awhile. :)

  2. Brenda Grolle: If only it were just the tidying... but you are right: I may have just run out of energy for the first time in two years. I've finished my children's book and it is a huge anticlimax. Next is the quest of locating an agent for it!

  4. Sounds like you need a few days R n R. Don't knock yourself for it.

    Trinny & Susannah are doing a tour of the Netherlands right now for a show named Missie Holland - Mission Holland. Apparently they are in my town sometime soon - I think I shall stay in hiding! OMG - the thought of doing the 360 degree mirror is terrifying!

    Hope you have a great relaxing weekend - glass of wine in hand of course!

  5. Sorry to hear you're down. It happens to the best of us. Have the wine and relax - the housework isn't going anywhere!

  6. Tea fixes everything a good night's sleep and a hot bath can't :-)
