Well, today has been a challenge! Bloody knackered after two nights of not sleeping properly! I got to work at 7.30, boss called at 7.45!! After 15 mins I had to ask him something and ended up having to do it in English as my brain just wasn't functioning!!
So we did the normal switch between French and English depending on which of us needed to speak their own language!!
When the first of my colleagues came in I said "let's have an english day"!!!!
She likes that cos she speaks and understands pretty well and likes to practice - and it is the first time since we started work that we've done it!!! The other colleague doesn't so we did half and half for the rest of the day!
Weirdly, the first colleague came in with some essential oil - if she was english she'd be described as hippy-ish!! But we have similar 'alternative' interests and she reckoned this particular oil would help with the muscle pain. Bloody hell, she was right
I can't believe that it has actually taken the pain away as much as it has. Not totally, but it's just uncomfortable, not Bastard Painful
and I haven't even put it on my area yet, just been 'sniffing' it!!
I know that's weird and I'm still not sure about it, but not complaining
And, today it's 12 years since that awful phone call from my wicked step-mother
I don't miss him any less now even after so long. Sadly, I don't have many photos of us together - and this one was quite a few years ago!! But I think I might try and get it printed so I can have it on my wall
