Paphos People

For the first time since I joined PP I did not get on the computer this weekend and the reason was I had to work Saturday morning - not normal but I was asked since things are in such a mess. So Saturday afternoon was spent shopping (food) as our supplies were getting low because I was watching the pennies, so now that we have money coming in I have spent this months wages on topping up the cupboards and freezer that are now all busting at the seams, plus we bought a few treats.

Sunday which should have been relaxing was spent washing, ironing, housework, preparing and cooking a Sunday roast but I did manage to get a couple of hours in the sun.

This week I am going to have to get myself organised at home so I can spend next Saturday and Sunday relaxing - hopefully in the garden. At least I have this afternoon off and tomorrow - Yipee! Would you believe it only just started work and now looking forward to my days off soooooooooooo much.

I would say welcome back to the world of the working classes, but as I have been off sick for almost two months I'd feel a bit of a fraud.

You will soon get back into it all Trish and organise yourself so that you can enjoy some leisure time. At least you have the opportunity to earn a living now and you can stop worrying about money.

I know what you mean - when I went back to work full time it was a nightmare, but you will get yourself organised, honest! Not bad to get a day off in the week though, I agree with Neil, you certainly sound a lot happier, and you can tell us all about it on Friday night.

Hi Trish.

Pleased to hear you are happy, nothing better than shopping, I love it, especially for food. As for lesuire time I have only Sunday and I clean like a maniac.
Last week my daughter and I 'blizted' the shop, it was really disgusting. I was embarrassed about the mess but can't be sewing and seeing to customers, etc and cleaning. This weekend I cleaned his computer room as he says he will do it himself but I hate to see it that way. He came home after his 'rounds' (mams, sisters...you know his day off.) and I have to tell him what a good job I have done otherwise it would go unnoticed. My mam is always telling me to relax but I can't.
Maybe when you settle in you will have some time to enjoy with Steve. Maybe you could find a cleaner now that you are working to do a day or two.

Jill.

Thanks all, it is great to know you have people who support you.

Pete - daren't put on here what I really think - bearing in mind I did name the hotel. Will tell all when I see you on Friday.

The positive things are I am not drinking so much - it was starting to worry me, plus I seem to have more energy and a lighter step. Everything seemed so much trouble before I got the job. I would think I will do it tomorrow, then tomorrow would come and think oh well and it went on and on. Funny thing is before I even knew I had the job I started spring cleaning - washing out the kitchen cupboards and the outside of them etc etc - must have sensed one was coming up plus that was even before I was called in for the second interview.

Even treated myself to two tankinis from Peacocks yesterday getting ready to have the relaxing times at the weekend and not feeling guilty about me not putting into the kitty, even though Steve always says it is our money I have always worked and found it extremely hard.

Jean - well it is Bank Holiday today and I will take whatever I can get as I do work hard trying to organise things in the office since there has been no storing or clear out since 2002, so six years worth of diaries, files etc. At least I am gradually getting there.

Trish, Phil was used to preparing quarterly accounts when he worked in the UK. When he started work here they were several years behind with the accounting reports. He couldn't believe it. So don't stress about the 2002 stuff. It will get sorted. Siga, siga as they say in Cyprus.
