The World of Siân

Well, that's all of my previous ramblings that were typed out else where, I can now start getting up to date. When I am feeling inspired of course...........

Ok its November now and I am not much closer in getting my Christmas presents bought. This is due to my damn car!!!! I never have any money because of it grrrr. Well I have bought his nibs Christmas present which is a few bits and pieces and a mini break in London with tickets to an exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. Ooo how cultured are we? Luckily me, my mum and my sister have put limits on how much we are spending on each other this year for Christmas, this is great as I don’t have to worry too much then either. I long for the day when I don’t have to fork out loads of money on my car, or for the day when money isn’t so much of a problem. Why does it always feel like you are on a constant struggle against the world? It makes more sense now as Britain heads into a recession, that we’re going to have less money to spend and more and more people will be made redundant and loose their jobs. As reading back on previous rantings I can see I have had many a car trouble. After ...

I am so tired today, I feel like I have had no sleep, although I know I at least had some. Right it’s the beginning of October tomorrow, and knowing how I like to be organised, it’s time to start shopping for Christmas presents. I have no idea what to get his nibs; he has said he has already bought mine!!!!!!!!! This amazes me for a start that he has been that organised and bought it. I really need to get my thinking cap on. It is also his 21st next year and I have a few ideas what to get him for that. We have also started planning a party for him, which he doesn’t know about yet, I am hopeless at keeping secrets from him as well, and I am going to try my hardest not to let on what’s happening. I also have to have a big think what to get my friend, as I normally get her some sort of Archers product, but now she finds herself with child, obviously she can’t drink. It looks like I will have to resort to her second favourite thing, of pigs. There might also be an extra person to b...

Autumn is upon us and yet I am amazed at the amount of people who refuse to believe it and are still wandering around in flip-flops!!! I mean come on……who in their right mind likes soggy feet? I know I certainly don’t and can think of nothing worse. Don’t they know they could suffer horribly and get trench foot or something?!?!?! I can see the point of little dolly/slipper type shoes, to make one look dainty or to go with an outfit, but flip-flops, when it’s raining, complete escapes me. I suppose there is an exception, if you are in hot weather, and all of a sudden it rains, like it would in say places like Florida, then I am sure you could quite easily find yourself in that situation and it would be no fault of your own.

Ok so it’s been heavy rain here for weeks, so I thought I would finally invest in some wellies. I thought there is a need for them considering mostly when it is heavy rain I am walking to or from work and get drenched. My jeans become like sponges and soak up all the water from the pavements within a certain diameter of where each leg is and I leave a trail of dry pavement behind me. So at the Eisteddfod the other week (yes, I was being cultural), I went into one of the hippy type clothing stores and there were some delightful wellies. Needs must, as I was also up to my knees in mud as trust me I went on the wettest day of the Eisteddfod. So I donned my wellies and was very pleased with myself. I have however tempted fate and it has been dry every time I have had to walk to work. I have found myself yearning for a heavy down pour and me to be stuck in it with my wellies. The time came this morning, I was walking to work and it had been dry all the way until I was 2mins from the d...

Ok Today is not a Wednesday but a Thursday, much better. I am alone in the office all day, I find this most boring as not only do I have no one to chat to, and I have no motivation to do any work. Also I can not browse the Internet as it’s not working, much to my annoyance. Damn, I don’t think I have any rambling’s to put down either!!!!!!! What am I going to do?!?!?!?! Why didn ’t anyone tell me that as soon as you have a car you never have any money? It’s true and I would warn anybody thinking of buying a car that once this is done there is no going back as it seems a necessity and that you couldn ’t function without it. Thinking I was starting to get my finances back on track and my bank balance actually looking a bit healthier, POOF there goes the exhaust on my car, eeep !!!! So I decide to be very sensible and take it in to Kwik fit straight away. I get it there and not only does it need two parts of the exhaust done but also three new tyres and the tracking!!!!!! Soooo...

Aren ’t dreams weird? I had the most bizarre one yesterday whilst dozing. I dreamt that I was a Chinese MAN of all things, and I was running my own Chinese restaurant. Then a door swung open showing what looked like the yard behind the Chinese with two big skip bins. By the side of the bins were two men, I somehow had a gun in my hand and shot the two guys and then door swung shut and I carried on running the restaurant as if nothing had happened. I have no idea what this means at all. The shooting I can imagine is from the fact that his nibs was playing a computer game at the time where he was a hit man, but the whole Chinese thing, I have no idea. I am definitely one for crazy dreams though. When I was younger, about 5 or 6 I had a dream I was in school and everyone apart from me had one normal leg and one pig’s leg. I was trying to get out of the school playground but there were people everywhere with a pig’s leg. Even my best friend at the time appeared and asked why I did...
