Well today is my birthday...........another year older!! I took a days leave today, as I prefer not to work on my birthday. Decided to have a lazy day, weather is pretty crap......the thaw has started and it has rained most of the day, that horrid really wet rain, if you know what I mean. We had considered on going to the cinema to see 'The Little Fockers', but the write ups were pretty dire, and as there was nothing else on that we fancied, I decided not to bother. We had also considered going out to lunch, but after eating and drinking rather a lot over the last few days, decided nice meal at home was all I fancied. So we made a quick dash to Asda for supplies and then came home and bolted out the horrid weather and settled down with a glass of wine and a good movie!
It has been a lovely Christmas for hubby and I, the first that we have had time off together, without having to sell our soul to the devil to get annual leave.............as is the case when you work in hospitality!! I had two rest days on the 23rd and 24th December, and as I was down to do middle shifts on the 25th and 26th, I got those off too. I did work yesterday and then as I took a days leave today, I am now not back to work until 11pm on the 31st!!! The three night shifts and another three days off............tough life this. Hubby on the other hand, had the week before Christmas off as anual leave. He was due back to work on Tuesday 21st, but then discovered he did not start back until Wednesday 22nd, working until the 24th and then off until the 29th!! He actually did go back on the 22nd, as the called him and asked if he wanted some overtime. He then works the 29th, 30th and 31st, before not going back until the 4th January 2011. He has worked out he will only be working 14 days in total in December.............and he says I am part time!!!! Our Christmas has been quite quiet. We had a lovely lunch at home together, before going round to my dads for the evening and Boxing day. We have really enjoyed having a lovely lazy time together, not worrying about work, or even being bothered by it.
As I suspect this will be my last blog of 2010, all that remains is for me to wish you all and happy and prosperous 2011.
