SOOOO Tired!

Ever feel like maybe you've taken too much on? I'm wondering if maybe I have!

What with doing the cleaning job 5 days out of 7, ferrying Yorkie too and from work, working for Avon, trying to keep my own business from going under, and now I am registared on my OU course which starts next month too.

I'm starting to feel that there are not enough hours in the day any more! And to make it worse I have lost most of this moring by over-sleeping! I woke up half an hour ago. In half an hours time I have to get out with some more Avon (requests from customers who didn't have the money last night, bless um), and then I have to get my self kitted out for two cleaning jobs which will take up my afternoon with almost as much driving as cleaning.

So why am I wasiting time on Blogger right now? Well, I have a 20 minute window (where I have done all the small jobs I need to do this morning, and I don't have enough time to start a bigger job) so I thought I'd update this. And ponder the grimness of people who miss-use public toilets.

Twice in the last week I have been to the Yatch Club (where you would assume people were 'nice') and have been met by scenes on YUK in the toilets there - which can only be used by members of the Club;

At the weekend one of the toilet rooms was covered in blood woth tissue from the toilet paper dispencer thrown all about the place. Apparently this is "not unusual on a weekend"... Lovely! And only yesterday the other toilet, when I opened the door, STANK... really really ponged, which made me cross as I have been using scented cleaning products and air fresheners to improve the smell. The reason this failed? Some one had left a dollop of poo on the FLOOR of the toilet! WHY??? For one, why poo on the floor then you are inches away from a toilet, and secondly, if it was (somehow) done by mistake, why not pick it up (with some paper) and flush it away!!! LIKE I HAD TO! Also, this same day, the middle shower room was trashed too. When I opened the door there were tracks of mud on the floor that looked like cycle tracks... and the toilet seat and lid were broken and filthy!

I've started up at the Campsite now... VERY posh! It's not realy a camp site, it's a trailer park for the seriously RICH! Big money! (mind you, people at the Yatch Club are wealthy too, so I'm making so assumtions). This job seems to be simple enough too. One staff loo, one public loo, staff kitchen, offices and reception. It's a 2 hour placement each day that I'm there and that is plenty of time but loads of polishing to do (which I quite like) to fill the time.

This afternoon I have my first shift at Age Concern too.

I have to keep reminding myself that I am a student again now, and this is a student job for me, not a career path. I wont be doing this forever. I'm only doing this to pay my way though this class and to top up the wedding fund.

I cleanied for aliving a while back and have seen the horrors that people are capable of. I can't imagine what their homes must be like. Obviously they can't care about cleanliness if they leave things in taht kind of state. If I did that kin of stuff at home I'd be picking fragment of skilelt out of my skull after the wife explained her stance on the issue.

Recipe: Pigsty Pie

This is one that we made up, although we are far from the first or only people to make a pie using pork or pork mince and call it a Pigsty Pie. So let's just say that this is our version of it. It smells great and reminds me of stuffing at Christmas, making it feel much more "naughty" than it is! This serves four people and it a nice 9 points per serving. You will need these for the mash: 400g potatoes 400g sweet potatoes 4-5 good sized carrots Salt Pepper Nutmeg Simply chop the roots, boil in salted water until tender, and mash! Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. The pie filling: 10 sprays low fat cooking spray (e.g. 1 cal) 1/2 lb lean pork mince 2 onions, finely chopped 3 apples, diced 1 leek, chopped 5-6 big mushrooms 2 tbs plain flour 1 tsp sage 1 tsp parsley Salt Pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 1/2 hot water 2 tsp English mustard Fry the onions in the cooking spray until they start to soften, add the mince. Once the meat starts to colour add the apple, leek and mush
