I have no idea how to insert a scream into text so use your imagination!

Possibly I have concluded for the first time today that this whole car thing is really getting me down. I am not sleeping right because of it and it crops up all too often, it’s just driving me nuts with the speculation and possibilities.

Neville called earlier at around 16:23 but I had dropped off to sleep so missed him. I suspect he’s calling to say it’s ready to be picked up but don’t know. Even if it were, at that time I’d not have been able to sort the paperwork out prior to the weekend so couldn’t have collected it. What I suspect and the reality may not, as is often the case with this car, match up. He could have been calling to say it had failed the MOT and now I have a large bill to add to the already mounting costs before it can be completed. He could actually have phoned for any number of things but because I don’t know my imagination is going over time. I am as uptight as can be and it’s doing me no good at all.

Add to this the other ‘background’ concern of Matt and what’s happening there and I just know my unfinished business is what is causing my current bit of shite.

I need a month and this should all be over … he hopes (pointlessly)

Yes, just two days to go and we are on month 9. I remember cancelling an order for a car once because they said I had to wait 5 months and here I am 5 months after buying the Sebring and still have no real idea when it may be ready!

A taxi from town to here should never cost £8.40 early evening – end of.

Zoey has taken to blocking the loo again so today I taught her how to unblock it with her having to place her own hand in a toilet full of shit. Maybe now she will reconsider just how much toilet paper to use. (probably not)

I have taken a diet holiday for a few days because I have just been feeling really down and ill. I figure that cutting down on food without also exercising more is just pointless anyway.

One more full week of school holidays to go here, that’s a week longer than most school kids get. On the plus side, most kids should be away from town next week so going there will be a little more bearable.

At the moment I am double booked for grandparents visits. Kris’s parents are supposed to come here on September 9th as are my Dad and Kath. My opinion is, Kay & Geoff invited themselves, they have not so much as spoken to me about it to see it is OK so when they eventually call I shall say sorry, but we are busy that day. It’s been over a year since seeing my Dad so I am not putting them off.

I am mentally spending quite an amount of money right now. Physically I am not so this has to be good! So far I have in my mind bought a new car (2nd hand runabout), booked two holidays, redecorated the entire house along with flooring, landscaped the garden along with several other things too numerous to list! A lottery win right now could prove most useful as I actually do at least have some focus right now on where it would start to be put to good use. (About as likely as Zoey being sensible with toilet paper)
