Snow Day!!

Its been a few days since my last post, its been confirmed that the meeting will indeed take place in mid february so I will find out whether I get to keep my job or not then! I really hope so though I also know that I am still a way off being ready to go back- hey ho!!! wait and see I suppose!

Got a call from one of my Drs today - my session had been cancelled due to the snow - she could get to work but her kids couldnt go to school!!! Not actually sure I could have got there myself though - buses are not (or at least were not) running up the hill to get to my area lol!!! it does look beautiful outside though! So instead of going all the way into the city for my appointment I got an unexpected snow day lol! I am however hoping that my appointment at the Drs isnt cancelled tomorrow... Still have this hideous chest infection which is not at all nice and is making me distinctly grumpy and my lungs equally so!!! Going to call them in a while and see!!

I have not wasted it as such - I tried to get out of my front door - haha, mmm - there was a drift of snow at least a foot deep so initially I gave up!! I phoned my dad up as I have booked to go back home for a few days, My brother and his fiance have just had a little baby boy. S is the most gorgeous baby in the world - but I am biased - Im his aunty!!! I booked the coach to do my 250 mile round trip on saturday and now Im hoping that come thursday all the snow - beautiful as it is, has gone!

Anyways - after a short chat to my dad, I called my cousin. K said that my goddaughter J was jellous of my snow- I was wasting it doing nothing with it, so I foolishly decided to build a snowman, haha!! 4 hours after starting said project im still not finished lol!!

Its more of a snow mound at present and I am actually unsure of how to
a - build the head and
b - get the head to stay on top of the mound at the moment!!

We shall see how it all develops as the day goes on!!

I joined a website online called twitter over the weekend - a friend recommended it to me and I have to say I am now addicted to it - I have been following tweets by phillip schofield and Jonathan ross over the last few days and there have been some rather amusing moments - especially poor Phils troubles attempting to get to work on this morning yesterday hahaha!!!!

Well - I have managed to get out today - in the yard as I said to build my snow mound, it has been very cold and that is never a very good combination with grumpy grumbling lungs! I have managed to stay relatively well though!! averaging 30 mins in the cold at one point - scalf over mouth and hat and gloves on mind! After this I did come inside for a neb and a cup of coffee (oh and to put wet and snowy gloves on the radiator!!!)

I feel like a big kid but I have promised to build the snowman and take a picture of it for J!! She will I am sure be amazed at the amount of snow we have had here - they only got a gentle dusting which lasted moments then melted away!!

Anyway I really am getting no nearer finishing my little project sat nebbing and blogging mmmm!!! But before I go back outside I am going to make sure my gloves are toasty warm and dry - though I am 100% confident they wont stay that way long!!!

Will blog again soon and hopefully will have news on my snowman project lol!!!

Speak soon
