weird day in many regards.

after getting up early (not as early @pcmcreative but still) and biking to Nottingham station I bought a single ticket at £11 as it appears you cannot get a return onboard that you can use the next day – i’m sure you can in the station.

back in burton I biked the four ish miles home to swad from the station, organised a bunch of stuff and sat in the job centre with an iPod low charge and my mifi – previous to this I sat in the pub having a quick morning coffee and getting my 20% off for being foursquare mayor again!

As always the job centre was bleak and I wondered how i was going to stretch out my remaining £24 seeing as I needed to get a single the next day back to notts, hard life this six months in – really not planning for another lame december, had two of them in a row in recent years.

electric meter showing £13.47 over it meant I would have to put at least £20 in to get it back on, even then I never had my iPod charger on me to rejuice what has become my main media device (I’m typing this while Ella sleeps)

Ella got dropped off at five and I told sam the situation about the electric, we worked out the power issue between us and she lent me her iPhone charger. I can just leave in ellas nursery bag when I drop her in the morning – great plan!

We grabbed a medium fruit bowl from the new sainsburys in swad (biggest now in Derbyshire) and headed to the till when ella got all excited and red faced – she’s got quite the crush on a boy called sam. awww.

we walked home, did the electric thing charged the iPod, went to the pub on the corner together (thought seeing as I have been here three years and was leaving soon I’d try it out) and had a pint and a fruit juice then home for snuggles and bed for around 8pm.

Candles flicker to my right side, electric storage heating is on and my princess is wrapped up – she liked the stories this evening.

I’ll miss this initial phase of raising ella here but I know it’s on to bigger and better things in terms of location – I gotta be where the connectivity and connections are!

time for sleep soon.. . Sent from my iPod
