COMING FASTER

 Christmas is coming faster than a Bmw M5 its not even a month one more payday .

We are getting security cameras fitted to both the front and back of the house , I work late and get home in the early hours of the morning . Helen can't see who is outside or if any one comes to the door . I will also be able to see as it sends alerts to your phone if any motion is detected in real time.

If we have cameras the will be linked to our phones and tv with an attached 1TB hard drive that can record up to two weeks worth of video content in colour with sound its got to be a no brainer . Hopefully they will be installed this week .

The cameras went in yesterday it took him six hours the hard drive is in the loft and all is up and running .He is coming back next week to swap the cameras to wide angle lenses . I get alerts when any motion is detected by anything cats , birds and of course humans .We can view both cameras from the tv in our bedroom .

Will order Helens Christmas gift from The White Company you plug it in add oil and it smells not hard to guess what she as asked for  but with a twist I ordered the oils from Neom but  its what she wants might get her something else that also smells for her birthday or glitters.

STUPID CRASHED IT

Had the flu jab a couple of weeks ago a lot of my health care co workers have also had the inoculation yet people are skeptical about the cover vaccine , my thoughts are if its offered to you and you refuse and then get cover its going to be a very regretful decision that you made . But if you agree to have it and it works with no lasting side effects then its got to be a good decision  , would I have it at this moment in time I would go for it for  sure as I currently work in a hospital with covid infected patients if I was not working chances are  , then no I wouldn't but it is a hard choice to make.

What do I get Helen for Christmas she wants a Neom diffuser not a reed one a electric plug in one they are expensive I know she wouldn't turn her nose up if it was a White Company one which ain't that much cheaper , also it is her birthday three days later .

I have been thinking about a new tattoo not sure why or what is impelling me but I feel  compelled to get one as its been a few years since I felt the tattooist needle not 100% certain what to get I think I need something positive in these shitty times and I am thinking on the lines of something to do with music or art.

Work is ok staff are sick of wearing masks and goggles and forever washing and sanitising  their hands every time we go on to and exit a ward , but of course we understand the reason why .

My daughter's ex crashed his BMW M5 whilst driving at 140 mph all I can say is what a dick head luckily he was driving alone in the car and  no one was seriously injured or killed . A white van pulled out on him they probably didn't even see him coming and the van took him out broadside apparently  the van then end up on its roof on the opposite  side of the road ,the BMW passenger side was totally wrecked and the car is a total right off , the police took it away I guess they will check the onboard computer find out his speed I am also guessing his insurance will be void he will lose his license and job then who knows what else , I also know he spent £5k on the engine etc last year every two hundred miles you need to top up  oil it drinks petrol specially at 140 mph what a chav what a moron and this happened in broad daylight mid afternoon .

I have two hours short of four weeks annual leave remaining at work I need to get some hours booked in I have until the end of March to fit them all in , might have to save a few days just in case I get snowed in .

WELL STONED

 We picked the Yorkshire stone fire  hearth up from the stone masons yard o unbury . it was way too heavy and was just too long to fit in the car , we asked for them to cut it in half .I still struggled to get it in to the house and into the room I walked both pieces  on the edges through the alley via the back patio doors the day after it all fixed and in place job done .

The Yorkshire ripper is dead Friday the 13th brilliant news he lived far too long .I hope he hated every day in prison he should have been hanged .

Next project I need to fit a folding door on the under stair store room not sure which one need to find a half decent one .

Looking forward to the weekend not sure we are doing anything special fish and chips a take away some cider read a book , catch up on You Tube and Netflix total chill time sounds good to me .

Christmas is looming I am working 13.00 until 21.00 which is totally fcuked Christmas Day up I have asked for the 28th of December off as its helens birthday I have yet to have it granted .

ITS UP

SATURDAY - Had a busy week bought the railway sleepers i hand cut them to size to  make the fire surround size we needed picture of this is posted in previous blog post  we was supposed to pick up the stone hearth but it will not be cut until Monday which is a bit of a bummer  .

 Also the bolts that came with the tv wall mount to fix the hanging brackets to the tv where too short so i had to mess going out to get to longer screws obviously they have to be dead on the right size too long and they will come through the front of the tv not what you want .

Finally got the tv mounted on to the wall I used over a dozen fixings just to be sure its 65inch tv so its not a light weight it took two to lift  and position it on to the bracket anyway twenty four hours later and its still up so guess its good .

SUNDAY - The Christmas tree is up its early I know but what the fcuk we have moved the rest of the furniture in to place and the room is set need to alter a door apart from that and the stone hearth we are done , hopefully we will collect it tomorrow .

Holmfirth and Hade Edge is bad with fog its been foggy the last few nights its eerie we have a grave yard I want to go and take photos in the fog at midnight too scared lol .

Cider in the fridge a Indian is  on order we I went out and bought a joint of pork for our Sunday roast but we didn't get finished until late so we ordered from our local take away for a curry .

Going to spend the rest of the night watching Truth Seekers on Amazon Prime chill out time for a change .

BUSY

Recieved another letter from the police regarding the dreaded speeding ticket they are asking for £100 fine plus three points on my license or I can take it to court of course I am going to accept it I was expecting six points and a weeks wage as a fine so I was quite happy with the offer they have given me . I have since paid it and sent my driving license off for the points . Two weeks off flew by the second week i did some decorating i did the living and dining room the entrance hall and stair case bulk head and top of the landing in white , i had to buy a flood light from Tool station way too dark to paint probbarly . we have also bought a living flame effect electric fire that puts out fake smoke using water converted to steam looks highly realistic .New Houses dont have fire places just centeral heating which is highly effective the fire is for the effect of a real fire only we wont have the fire as a heat source. we have ordered a two inch stone hearth from a stone yard in Hourbury they are cutting it to size we should be able to pick it up this friday and i am making a fire surround out of some wooden ten by four sleepers , i bought a bracket to mount the tv on to the wall .

My daughter is having to close her hair salon once again due to lock down commenicng for the second time this year which is totally going to make life difficult for her , at least her son will be goig to school well fo rnow any way .
