Soooo tired

Being back at work has it's ups and it's downs. While I like earning money, and the job's pretty ok too what with it's balance of office work and site visits, it's very very tiring...

Monday was a nice normal office day, 8.45 till 5. Yesterday morning I was up at 5am to set off for Leeds by 6am, to be at various sites from 7.30 onwards. I got home at 8.30pm (although I did have an unpaid stop off hour at Mums on the way home). Today I was in the office again by 8.45am, finishing at 5. Tomorrow I get a lie in and don't have to be in the office until 10.30am, although I do have to be in Lytham St Anns at 5pm. Friday I'm site visiting all day (just in Lancaster though, phew).

I will also be back in Leeds every Tuesday morning for the forseeable.

I'm just not used to it!!

That said, it is fun driving about. I was using the Sat Nav for a while which was great - until the battery ran out because I have no cigar lighter in the car to power it up with! I was offered one of the company Belingos to use on Tuesday, but what it being the first time I've driven one and it being such a long day I wasn't happy about it. CHANGED MY MIND! So I've asked for one to use Thu night and Friday and with a bit of luck I'll get one. Then I can use the Sat Nav properly and not get utterly lost!

I am enjoying my new roll at LN, but I am SO tired right now that I could just go straight to bed now and not get up again until 10 tomorrow. I guess it's just a matter of getting back into the swing of things again....

*yawn*

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
