23:37 Oh noes, I found some dark chocolate balls that I won in a prize... and now I can't stop eating them!

07:34 Radio news this am. Recession, job losses, recession, downturn, job losses, new HRT scare. Just great. Listening 2 music only from now on :(

14:53 Just back from awesome lunch w/ Saskia! Total blast as always. We love to frighten the natives in Cafe Revive! Folk eavesdrop 'cos we laff!

23:22 Very, very tired, but feel pleased with work done today.

09:19 QI is awesome too! Another big fave of mine. Interplay between Stephen & Alan is priceless. :)

15:49 Feel slightly spaced by various kerfuffles today, but tomorrow is a jolly lunch with Saskia!

19:00 Brain feels totally fuzzed tonight. Am *so* looking forward to day out tomorra! Yummy lunch, coffees and the bestest company!

21:13 Worried about hubby's job again. It's not looking good. And he's in his lateish 50s. When jobs come back, they'll go to younger guys... :(

22:52 Owe emails to lots of people. Must get on this & stop being so bad mannered. Need to be much more organised.

15:59 Rewriting, reworking process was very satisfying, but am a bit tired now. Also fed up of itchy face from this allergy/reaction thingoid.

19:08 Mmm... face calm for moment. Am enjoying a bag of Pom-Bear teddy shaped potato snax. A fine dining experience... LOL

22:56 Txting a journo, when one has had 2 beers & is a crap txter... perhaps not a good idea! LOL

19:06 Much v. intense editing/reshaping today. But *enormously* satisfying.

19:09 Bollox, forgot to get tin of mushy peas at Tesco.

08:28 Thanks to all kind tweeters who posted about Alice. She should be home mid morning when himself picks her up from the vets. :)

08:32 Sigh, feeling fed up because face is itchy from rosacea. It's flared again. Doesn't look too bad, but feel as if I could gouge my chin off.

09:19 Wondering what have accidentally touched face with to trigger rosacea/sensitivity/dermatitis flare? Am such an idiot. Faceful of E45 today.

11:55 Anti-hists + late Poirot last night are making me drowsy.

13:25 Is twitter ded?

14:05 Alice home & fine. But himself may have got speeding points rushing around to call at vet during the day! On top of £108 vet bill... sigh

15:04 Ah, some disappointing news...

15:13 I am so fed up now...

15:42 Think I might enter the Euromillions tonight. Win that, & I could just lie about, eating chocolate & not have to worry...

15:43 But at least there's new Numb3rs & NCIS tonight to take my mind off things.

17:19 Hmmm... disappointment now turning into a stimulating creative challenge! Sometimes this job just blows my mind! :)

19:10 Thanks to all lovely tweeters who expressed concern re. my angst. Am now enjoying a new challenge & glad to have it! All's well etc etc. :)

07:54 Poor Robin Schone! I hope she's able to make a full recovery.

08:46 Determined to do better today. Will whip words-ass and also try and catch up on some admin and emails!

10:42 Taking a few of downtime after my static cycling. Enjoying v. nice cup of instant costa rican and a banana. Then to work!

14:38 Mmm... day getting a little bit out of control somehow. Due to various, including cat barfage. Alice is out of sorts, poor baby.

17:53 Oh dear, Kitteh Alice had to go to the vet. Her barfage & coughing suggested throat obstruction. She's had to stay/be anaesthetised. :(

19:22 Alice is fine now. As I suspected, she'd eaten a big piece of grass & it'd got stuck. She's stopping at vets overnight 'cos v. drowsy.

My day in tweets:

07:54 Another bitter cold day. Am as good as hibernating at the moment. Fear icy conditions as may slip and break something, like old ladies do.

09:13 Why do I ache all over? It's not from over exercising... I'm far too idle a git for that!

09:46 Gonna get on my exercise bike now, see if I can loosen up and shake off the aches. It's worked for me that way before. :)

12:04 Yikes, the hero in this story of mine is a wicked horndog. 20 years younger than heroine, but at her all the time... hee hee.

16:13 Am getting v. annoyed waiting for a particular email.

18:47 I have got to chill and calm and not get vexed with people. I can feel myself ready to go Mrs Angry again...

20:25 Only 1K words today. Have given up & am watching Ice Road Truckers.

07:36 Current story seems to have gone off the rails a bit. Need to herd it back on course. And stop mixing metaphors too. LOL

07:37 Am starting to pay for that 2K words in around an hour. Shoulders & wrists rather sore. A steady pace of around 1K per day is better for me.

07:38 Another bitter cold day here in West Yorkshire. Glad I work from home. Himself has to go out, as 3 day week seems to be 4 day this week.

08:11 Drinking Twinings 1706 Blend tea at the moment. Delicious! Might be better than Yorkshire Gold, methinks...

09:20 Not dressed yet, but have written 100 words of current story. Steering it back on track. I hope.

10:55 One piece of Christmas cake left. Eat now? Save for afternoon tea break?

13:48 Well, have written my 1K words for the day. Good going, eh, before lunch!

14:29 Broke kitchen timer I use for writing, but have now discovered timer on my phone and love it! So loud & sounds just like an alarm clock!

17:48 Sigh. Liked my story when first started it, then hated it, then liked it, now think it's a shambling mess again.

20:42 Am worried about a friend.

20:56 twitter seems a bit bolluxed up tonight

21:10 Oh dear, am very, very tired all of a sudden. Massive yawning.

21:31 wot the blinkin eck is up with twitter? Stuff's arriving in the wrong order...

09:56 I'm back to drinking Capt. Scott blend tea. Cheaper than Yorkshire Gold & nearly as tasty. Still worry about dying in a tent though.
