25th-Jul-2008 07:20 am - Pressure.........
If there's one thing I hate to get in my life at the moment, it's pressure - the verbal/moral kind!

I've got a friend who's running a stall at a local fayre this weekend... and I said that I'd try to be there to help for a few hours... - note the bit about try!

However, I've had a demand for over £300 this month - and coupled with the idea of travelling to where they are, the cost of the petrol and paying for several hours parking on a Saturday...... it would cost me an extra £10-12. That doesn't sound a lot - but my income is breadline at the best - and I've told her this - and that I'm not doing anything unless there's a pay cheque at the end of it!.

So - I've tried explaining this to her - and she just doesn't get it! All I get from her is 'I'm expecting to see you there!', 'Be there!' and See you Saturday!'. She's also on a pension - a reasonable one - and thinks that the breadline doesn't exist.

I've been thinking about this a lot over the last 12 hours.and I've felt myself close to a panic attack several times because of it!

At this moment, I'm pretty much geared up to say stuff it! I can't continue to repeat myself - because when she's not listening, it's not worth it! Anyway - this weekend in particular, I just want to have a quiet one - partly because I'm missing my parents rather badly this weekend, and I've got a lot of thinking to do! And I've got other things to take care of - business and stuff - and something I've been prevaricating about for almost 2 years!

Today there are only 2 birds in the nest. One appears to have flown away leaving the presumably younger ones behind. Mother and father bird haven't been back too often; I guess they're teaching the young one all the necessary birdly skills. All things being equal, I'll bet that there'll be only one bird in the nest tomorrow.

The last 2 birds seem far more frightened of me than the first one was. I don't wish to disturb them so I'm leaving them as alone as I can.

No idea if this has been posted yet. Received this in an email and felt the need to share.

... I have been mostly skiing.



In other birthday news, I have a space invaders t-shirt, a mini bluetooth gps that works with my phone to do sat nav, a Blues Brothers dvd, lots of choclit and a Thunderbird 2 keyring. I've had sushi for lunch and the weather is set fair for a bbq with the prospect of plenty of BEER. I am happy.
