Monthly Archives: November 2019

An early start today. Delivery and breakfast was the order for the morning. A fair sized delivery, but as usual I rolled up my sleeves and got on with it. Then sorted out my salad stuff for the beginning of the day. I made up extra as the day went along. Luckily enough I hadContinue reading “Saturday’s Post ☁️”

For some, it’s the start of the weekend. So cheers 😉 Walk to work in the sunshine (albeit a little chilly) and home in the dark. These dark evenings just get so many people down. Your closing your curtains early, putting on lights, and the body is getting ready for bed, when in actual fact,Continue reading “Friday’s Post 🌦”

Have to admit, I wanted to do lots this morning, I wasn’t meeting my friend till later in the day. So had planned to visit and tidy up my daughters grave. Wanted to take my travel penguin to the library and take some photos. I wanted to organise a review I’d just finished reading. AndContinue reading “Thursday’s Post 🌧”

Ever have a feeling it’s going to be one of those days? Well I had one of those days today….. It seemed every guest that came into the restaurant wanted to chat or moan to me…. The day wasn’t going right… Their kids were wanting expensive gifts for Christmas…. Why didn’t I have warm rollsContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post ☁️”

Had a doctors appointment this morning. I need this cough gone, but in all honesty I think it’s here to stay……on the way to their doctors i took these photos, as you can see, the town is in full Christmas mode!! They didn’t say outright that I have asthma, but I suppose it’s hard toContinue reading “Tuesday’s Post 🌧”

A wet and windy Monday. Work was pretty quiet, so I managed to catch up with all my salad prep and pot wash, I even managed to clean my fridge 😉 Rain seemed to keep a lot of guests away today. Which was probably a good thing. We were running out of our popular foodContinue reading “Monday’s Post 🌧”

I did a few hours at work today. I wasn’t going to, but with two members of the kitchen team on a few days off, it was wall hands on deck. That did mean i didn’t get to do as much as I wanted to at home. But once I got home (managed to getContinue reading “Sunday’s Post 🌧”

A long and miserable day. It rained on and off for most of the day. Delivery day as well, so I had to get a move on. Nothing worse than boxes becoming wet and fall apart in your hands. The weather, or the time of the year saw us really busy for breakfast and thenContinue reading “Saturday’s Post🌧”

Should have put this one on over Halloween! Oh well. If you make it, send me a picture 😉Thinking if doing this as a 3D picture. I’ll add it to my craft list 😉 A slightly damp day today. Did the rain warm us up just a little? Not sure, but by the end ofContinue reading “Friday’s Post 🌦”

A really cold day today. But I spent the morning reading and sorting out a few reviews. Then popped into town to grab me and my BFF lunch. After lunch we settled down to watch a classic film….. A serial murderer known only by a grotesquely apt nickname–Buffalo Bill–is stalking women. He has a purpose,Continue reading “Thursday’s Post ☁️”

It’s definitely getting colder!! Time to dig out the gloves and hat😉 Walking to work was a little bracing, but as long as it’s dry I’ll take that (it’s better than rain or snow) We had a flying visit from our regional manager and his boss!! And I do mean flying visit…. in … roundContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post ☁️”

A frost greeted us this morning. Luckily it didn’t make the walk to work slippery. It was delivery day today, so it was earlier start. I had help with the delivery today, so it was put away pretty quick. So I got plenty done, well that was until a meeting with my new shift leaderContinue reading “Tuesday’s Post☁️”

After the dramas on Sunday, I was hoping for a quiet Monday. Well I get to work, and find no one had done anything!!! A miscommunication between the management had my kitchen manager not getting in till 11!! She’s suppose to be in at 8, to start her day!! So we start the day aContinue reading “Monday’s Post☁️”

Work today. And what a day!! Plenty of drama and guests to keep me occupied. One of the waitresses was disciplined for being late, she didn’t take kindly to being told off, and then fireworks!! Seriously….. if your late, then accept the telling and move on, but to throw your toys out the pram!! ThatContinue reading “Sunday’s Post ☁️”

That was a busy day!! I don’t think I stopped for two minutes!! A delivery that was pretty big (a really unhelpful driver) and staff that had gotten drunk the night before, and didn’t bother turning up for work!! I put most of the delivery away myself. Then set up pot wash, all the whileContinue reading “Saturday’s Post ☁️”

Can’t believe we are two weeks into November!! Not sure where the days are going?! Today was an interesting one. The cleaner had somehow shorted the electrics to the salad cart! So we had to offer the salad, then go into the walk-in fridge, and put it into a bowl for the guests! It wasContinue reading “Friday’s Post 🌧”

Doctors today, we chatted, and now I’m on a course of antibiotics for a week!! Then a new appointment for just over a week’s time. The stalls are now up and opening for the Christmas rush. Trees and decorations are all over the town. Caught up with my friend for lunch. Chilling and watching aContinue reading “Thursday’s Post ☁️”

A cold but sunny walk to work today. Chatting to my friend as I walk seems to make the walk quicker. Work again was a busy day. Gossip was rife, it seems our manager may be leaving, but I think they are all reading too much into it. If the manager is going, then thereContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post 🌥”

That was a looooong day 😴 Delivery was on time, but I got the pleasure of doing it all on my own!! But I got on with it and got it done pretty quick. Then there was putting it away and getting ready for start of the day. It was a steady day, just theContinue reading “Tuesday’s Post☁️”

As you know, I had a hospital appointment last week for blood tests, well they did something to them, or the system went down. But needless to say I had to go back and repeat the procedure!! The traffic around where I live is bad enough, but roadworks near and around the route to theContinue reading “Monday’s Post ☁️”

On the 11th hour of the 11th month, we stand still and remember the ones who died to protect us. Less we never forget. 🦋

Went to see my son today. Weather although cold, was bright, so it made for a nice walk about. We had lunch out And then a nice walk along the canal, and then back to my son’s home. Dinner and a chat finished off a really nice day. 🦋

Cheers. Hope you have a good weekend. A cold walk to work today. Luckily I had help with the delivery today. Than around midday the rain started. And stayed till late evening. Had dinner out with an old work colleague and friend. We chatted about her holiday, and my nightmare day at work. And byContinue reading “Saturday’s Post 🌧”

Getting colder. Time to think about changing my scarf to a thicker one (I tend to wear chiffon in the summer) and looking for the gloves. Walking home is now in the dark. I don’t listen to music (I usually chat to either my BFF or my younger sister) Work was another busy affair, thingsContinue reading “Friday’s Post 🌬”

Went to the circus a few days ago. Grace was very excited. This circus is a little different. They do t have animals, it’s a people circus… clowns, acrobats and magicians. Yes it was all her own hair, and she swings through the air, by “hair power” We had hot dogs, popcorn and candy floss.Continue reading “Circus Visit 🎪”

Back up to the hospital today for blood tests . The doctor is almost certain that it’s asthma. Can’t do a peak flow test until this cough is under control. The wait in the waiting room actually took longer than the taking of my blood. In fact I probably could have walked to a fromContinue reading “Thursday’s Post ☁️”

Still fighting this cough ….. we think it’s probably asthma🙄so I’ve been taking it easy. Listening to music and resting. Normal blogs will resume soon 💋 🦋

Today would have been my Gran’s birthday. She sadly passed away (over 30 years!!) but i fondly remember her. She was always there with advice and a tissue (usually a wet one to wipe the little ones faces 😝) Today was my day off. But spent it on the phone trying to arrange a doctorsContinue reading “Thursday’s Post”

Yes I know I’m a week late …..

Still fighting this cough …..

Busy day at work (think people were still getting over their boozy weekend) Prepping and keeping Pot Wash tidy. Running back and forward!! And then as it’s half term this week, you have the school kids to contend with!! 🦋

It’s my dad and sister’s birthday this month. This is my dad Heather is on the left (it’s her birthday this month)
