1:53 am

I think Rob is right... every time I have a nightshift, my bowels give me hell. :(
2:08 am
grannyrose

2:09 am
sprite

:(
2:09 am
grannyrose

well it could be. a change in your biorhythms.
2:10 am
sprite

guess my body reacts very quickly to being overtired. Ah well. Not gonna let it stop me.
2:10 am
grannyrose

could you take whatever med you take when your bowels are like this, before you do your shift?
2:11 am
sprite

usually let it run its course (pun not intended) and don't take anything. But it is a good idea. I might get something and give it a try.
2:11 am
grannyrose

try immodium. it works well for me.
2:11 am
sprite

Very wet earlier, then sunny for a while and clouding back up now. I have 6 whole hours to myself and got excited by the sunshine but have now changed my plans form gardening to a bit of housework then crafting. Once I've babbled.

We are going to have rain this afternoon. Siiigghhh. are you in North Wales or South Wales?
3:04 am

south Wales, about half way between Caeerphilly and Merthyr Tydfil - where are you?

Just looked Wraysbury up. Never been there but it looks lovely.
3:38 am
mattygroves

It's very pretty - a lovely little village. Just a lot of aircraft noise - unlike, it seems, Isleworth (where we moved out of), we get take offs here, which are louder
3:42 am
hydra

We are very well placed, between Uxbridge and Northolt, so hardly hear a thing. Just the occasional helicopter, or the Queen's fly-past!
3:42 am
hydra

I meant 'between Heathrow and Northolt'.
3:42 am
mattygroves

Oooh, nice.
3:43 am
mattygroves

Wraysbury has a cricket club, a bowls club, a tennis club, a football club, a windmill, a village hall - it's so English it hurts :)
3:44 am
hydra

As Northolt is a military airport as well as a civilian one, Heathrow planes can't overfly. My chief bugbear is the chavs with the ear-splitting motorbikes and cars with no silencers, that race past my bedroom window at night. As my mum used to say, 'every Eden has its serpent'!
3:44 am

I must visit Wraysbury. It sounds delightful.
3:45 am
mattygroves

Do - we could meet in one of the two pubs, both of which are great
3:46 am

I don't drive though. I'd have to look for ways of getting there on public transport.
3:46 am

There are a couple of bus routes here that start at T5 Heathrow, if that helps...
3:47 am

Yes, that would help. I just saw your ee cummings quote on your profile. I did my university thesis on his poetry. I think he's wonderful.

i think that's what's getting to be - retirement in view, but not attainable for some time. robert browning got it wrong when he wrote, "a man's grasp should exceed his reach, or what's a heaven for." by the time i retire...

Our govt had the age limit for retirement pensions set at 67 (probably in hopes that more people would die "in harness" but it seems that the new powers that be are putting it back at 65. Not that it will be much. last time I got a notice about it, I was entitled to the lofty sum of $442.00 a month :)

I'm pretty sure there is something you can do with the cpp that involves sending photocopies of your kids birth certificates in and your child rearing years will be compensated as if you were working. The deal covers the concurrent years from the birth of the oldest until the youngest reached age 12 .

oh - too bad! I've never taken advandtage of it as I figured it would all be clawed back anyway --- sometimes it doesn't pay to save and make good investments during your working years!
9:11 am

true enough - you get punished for saving
9:17 am
rururocks

here in the usa.. they prevent you from early retirement by docking your monies if you are still earning too. Forcing one to retire at 66 and the attrition rate at that point is fairly high

there is no double dipping here either
9:18 am

same here as down below - the slackers, the under-the-table-wage-earners, the 'i didn't know you had to claim tips' service people - they get the max allowances

6:10 pm
lilliann

Godthaab, she doesn't go to a private school
6:11 pm
godthaab

Oh, sometimes I get mixed up between British Private and The Rest of the World Private. Is it a public school that us colonials would call Private?
6:11 pm
lilliann

it's a normal high school
6:12 pm
lilliann

we don't pay for her to go
6:12 pm
godthaab

Oh. Well, I am a big fan of uniforms in the education system.
6:14 pm
lilliann

so am i, until she's now not officially going to the school because she is doing her G.C.S.E's and on Friday she will have left for life.
6:14 pm
godthaab

Very Excellent. I bet she's happy about that! How many G.C.S.E.s?
6:18 pm
lilliann

They're not allowed to stay in School in between exams as they aren't officially students' anymore, which is ridiculous as some live a fair way from the school and there is no school buses laid on and nowhere for them to go to in between and even if they live in a nearby village, by the time they get a bus, and get home, it's time to get on another bus back to school, so they miss out on revision time!
6:20 pm

Us colonials? Godthaab, I hate to be the one to inform you but we drove the British out over two hundred years ago and have not been "colonials" since.

stidmama

well.... it was a very difficult year, aloyisius. That's two in a row. I loved teaching middle school, but so far the effort of the littles is pretty extreme. Not sure my body is up to the challenge! Might end up moving back up to the older kids... but not yet . I'll give the littles one more year before I decide.

middle school .. whew.. that is why I taught high school.. understand
10:26 pm
Aloyisius

I was so "bad" in middle school, I don't know how my wonderful teacher coped.. but I will remember her forever
10:27 pm
stidmama

:-D I enjoyed the energy of middle school -- but... I like the "sweet" littles too. Tough decision. Have to see what my hips do next year... have been on cane and crutches a lot this year. :-(

stidmama

I really enjoy the middle-ages and those kids need to have adults who love them BECAUSE of and not in spite of who they are as they begin to move away from childhood.

oh rats, sorry to hear that stid! Arthritis?
10:29 pm
stidmama

no, the stupid-dumb dislocating thing.
10:29 pm
Aloyisius

ding dong it! must be painful
10:30 pm
stidmama

yep, that's one way to put it... X-) but only two more kid hours and then I can rest and recuperate. If I can lose the stress weight I gained I think I'll be back to functional again.
10:30 pm
Aloyisius

well, stid.. you are my lucky charm too.. fw.. any clues needed before I do hit the sack?
10:31 pm
stidmama

How about you? Enjoying the retirement, I hope?
10:31 pm
stidmama

My cousin (a bit older, closer to Mother's age actually) in her retirement is teaching classes in watercolor and drawing. She's so talented... and now she gets to share with others.
10:31 pm
Aloyisius
