Wednesday was wappy

Good Morning ,every one I didnt get an entry done yesterday,,,,,,,, The day ,as some do ,just flew by,,,,,I was busy in the morning I read a few more emails ,I did Maurices pack up he's on another six night stint,,,,I got myself ready and I was picked up by Karen ,the tenant participation manager ,and we joined some more people who are on the committee,It was more to finalise the fun day the company are putting on for the tenants ,and it sounds alot of fun ,the main feature is to be a reenactment of the civil war by the Sealed Knot Society,I was talking to Brigid,who says her friend plays the part of a merchants wife and does the most amazing 'black embroidery' intriguing I will be checking that out.,,,and passing on what I learn about it in due course .The second item on the agenda was of course the news letter ,and since I had told Karen my news about being featured as a silver surfer ,she wants me to do an item on that ! ie what a manager does when she retires ,and because I went to the energy saving day,,,yes you guessed it ! ,,,,,,,Today is the day I go off to Oakham ,with the guys and gals (sound like Jimmy Saville !)at the over sixties club .Oh before I go on ,I have a big apology to make to Oakham ,I am afraid in my last entry I moved Oakham into the next county ,,,,,Oakham is of course in Rutland ,and I should have known better,,,,when my son Derek finished agricultual college,he got a position on a farm at Burley,On The,Hill ,  just outside Oakham,and his claim to fame was being the youngest farm foreman in Rutland ! He has now gone on to do greater things ,working for the Thames water board,managing the transportation of sewage from one end of the country to the other !,,,,,,,,,,I,m getting side tracked here I was telling you why I didnt post yesterday,I came home,from the meeting in time to have a cuppa with Maurice before he went ,,dealt with some more emails ,then Donna and I were emailing each other on and off all evening ,about some graphics for next week ,and as usually happens she is giving me inspiration from her lovely graphics....remember the Relax one I did about 'my time 'when my children were little, and how I found relaxing in the bath ,gave me much needed space ,,,,,,,,,In between all this I was answering alerts ,then had a nice long chat ,to Jeannette (travels) Ifinally cleared the emails ,,,,,and at about eleven o clock I was ironing work shirts,you can tell where my prioritys lie emails then shirts lol ,,,,,,,,,And so dear friends I am now going to prepare for my day out,Hope you all have a lovely day ...with love from 

 

 

   Thank you Sara for this lovely sig xx

I'm curious... when you iron shirts is it always collars and cuffs first?

Hi Jan, it was nice to talk on the phone, I don't get to talk to many people all week while I'm not working! So you finally got round to ironong Maurices shirts!! He would've ended up as wrinkly as Scooby if you hadn't! I hope you had a lovely day in Oakham and I'm intrigued to know what black embroidery is. Jeannette xx

I to am wondering what the black embroidery is like.

Have a good day.
