Wednesday already – and what an up and down week so far!

So main gossip – Jayson had an interview on Monday and then another one on Tuesday and then got offered the job from Monday on Tuesday! Mixed reactions though as while it is awesome that he’s been offered a job (straight away!), it’s not really something that he wants and it’s all the bloody way up in Watford – I mean I don’t think that it could be any further opposite where I work or want us to live!

I am trying to encourage him to keep looking for another job – something that he will actually like doing – but the lure of money is very strong – especially when we are very very bad money position, plus we have to move out and it is the most expensive time of the year *sigh*

I spent most of this morning looking for properties on the north side that won’t make it any longer for me to get to work and will still be okay for Jayson (if he take the job in Watford he wants to drive there) and after looking at all the nice, 2 bedroom houses on the Southside in our price range – there is options of studio apartments and that’s about it on the Northside in our price range. I can’t believe how huge the difference in quality and size there is south compared to north – it’s so shit!

I almost down to thinking we should just get as big a Studio apartment as we can get – shove all our stuff in it and get a 6 month contract – then hopefully by then, overdraft paid off, we can find Jayson something part-time he likes and thats in a more accommodating area of the city!

So bit of tension at the moment – Christmas at the end of the week and then a busy week and new years and then we are basically going to have 1-2 weeks to find something to move into – and then 1 week to move out and sort it all out! *huge massive raspberry*

Right other bits of info: had a really nice Christmas work party – went into the city near Bond Street to a place called the ‘Loop Bar’ where we had a very tasty 3 course meal and lots of red wine – then downstairs around 9.30ish for a bit of a boogie – and I swear I didn’t think I had drunk that much – so I texted Jayson to say I was coming home (he was going to come and collect me if I was drunk) but I was feeling okay – but by the time I got back to the house – omg almost legless – but Jayson had a good laugh at me slipping all over the wooden floor trying to remove my tights.

Early morning up which my head really really wasn’t happy with and over to derrick’s place to try and fix his computer – so we spent until 6pm there – lots of dramas and then went out to Jen and Simon’s for dinner – got a text message after dinner from Derrick to say the computer had stopped working – but didn’t spoil the night and I was very happy as I got taught how to play poker and ended up taking everyone’s chips in the first round!

Had an okay sleep and then back over to pop’s place to fix the computer – ended up looking like the cpu had overheated so we bundled it back into the box and pop’s took it over to the guy he brought it off that evening to be fixed.

We got back to the house around 5.30pm and joined Ciaran sitting in the loungeroom awaiting our house meeting – by 10 we realised Marco wasn’t going to attend so had a brief chat and figured were moving out – Marco stumbled in around 10.30 and then emailed on Monday to say he was at a family thing and the meeting wasn’t ‘confirmed’ – really annoying.

Monday night we went down to Rita and Hamish’s place for roast dinner which was really nice – exchanged a few gifts and had a few drinks then home around 12ish.

Last night I got home to a dark and cold house – some fuse had blown at the electricity plant so every second house had no elec – and it was sooo cold in the house! (Jayson went to visit some friends for the evening) ended up in bed at 7.30 with a jumper, gloves and beanie on reading by candle light!

So tonight we are going to Grant and Sarah’s for dinner which will be nice – Jayson has some work on Thursday and Friday so not going to be staying over – but will be nice to see them both before the craziness of Christmas!

Hopefully I can try to write more often so I stop writing these long rambling posts!

Hope the Christmas spirit kicks in soon!
