Fidget and Dodger are officially both girls, and they’re growing so big! Their wings are getting long and their adult feathers are coming out in force! I’m gunna have more eggs than sense.

Last Sunday was fathers day and Christopher and Kelly drove down from Bournemouth with the kids. I also managed to finish season 2 of Orange is the New Black last Sunday and I’ve not known what to do since then. It’s such an amazing show and just like with Lost Girl, I cant wait for the next season to come out!

The weather has been picking up though. Too warm for me at the moment but hopefully I’ll get used to it soon enough. The nice weather has meant the ducks have been able to go out for a while every day to get some fresh air time. They love their bucket of water!

I’ve currently turned my phone off for the first time in a long time. Its getting really hard to have a day to myself lately and I don’t think I’m used to it yet. I’m used to having so much free time I don’t know what to do with myself and these past few weeks have been so full of things its driving me a little insane. If its not work, I’m babysitting so my friend can go into work early, and then I also get asked to babysit for other things too and then when I’m home I’m looking after the ducks or my mum or both. I don’t know if I’ve complained about it on here before, but my cousin hasn’t been paying his rent to my mum very consistently. I spent about £82 on Monday doing the weekly shop and getting electric so that my mum could stop worrying about money. She’ll complain to everyone about my cousin until the cows come home and everyone tells her to either put her foot down and demand it or to kick him out (That's my view) but she says she can’t. I ended up getting so fed up of the constant back and forth on this subject with my mum that I ended up writing my cousin a 5 paged letter basically asking him to start being considerate and put his rent 1st and to be honest, it seems to have worked. For how long, however, I do not know. It’s chilled my mother out a little for the time being though, so that's a plus side. Now she’s just worrying about money for party food for my 21st in… 4 weeks? Eek.

Last night I had these weird dream where I was an angel flying around the place. Apparently I had two sisters who were also angels and we were being looked after by our two Grandmothers because both our mothers were missing and we were hiding from the Dark Wings who are the male angels with black wings who basically enslave female white winged angels and use rape as a way to show their power over the females. It’s been a while since I’ve written about my dreams on here, but they’re always so weird and interesting at the same time! It was kind of cool to fly in my dream though, but for once having wings instead of just being able to float along. I was also a little bit like a magpie apparently because I stole shiny things from humans and one girl found out about me but was cool with it and tried to help me escape from some Dark Wings who were tracking me down.

I could seriously write novels if I weren't so lazy.

Anyway, time to go try to not be lazy and do something productive.

I got my two ducklings! Last Wednesday my sister decided that it would be best to have them as soon as possible because she had lost half of the ducklings already from drowning. I babysat Wednesday afternoon so Dawn could go into work early and when I got home my little duckies were there ready for cuddles! Zoey arrived shortly after and we had some fun letting the ducks run around my bedroom for a while. Zoey slept over Wednesday night and it was actually pretty fun. We drunk a little Smirnoff and tried a joint which we agreed was disgusting and it didn't even effect us. Well, it may have affected Zoey a little, because I’m pretty sure she got the munchies. I made her some fries and hash browns and put Bacon salt over it. We stayed up until maybe 10;30pm, which is early for Zo, and laughed about the silliest things. She’s sleeping over tomorrow night, too.

Arent my babies adorable, though? I can tell them apart from their beaks, and their names are Fidget and Dodger. Mainly because we dont know what genders they are at the moment; They’re only 4 weeks old.

Other than ducky news, I’ve been working every day since last Friday, including babysitting and picking Rachel up from school twice. Been keeping busy, that's for sure. And the other day when I sat in the garden with the ducks I managed to get sunburnt on my shoulders and shoulder blades. At least it filled in a little of the missing section from last Junes swimming costume tan line from the burn I got. I had to sleep with a damp towel on my back last night to soothe it though, so its not too fun.

If I didn't write about it already, the Saturday before last I actually went to Dawns for a games night and ended up sleeping over. Sunday was pretty fun, too. We went to the shop and got some BBQ foods and then popped into the Range, where I bought some glue and a scrapbook so I can finally start my Happy Memories book. It’s to look at whenever I’m feeling down so I can remember all the things I have in my life to be happy about.

I’ve started watching Orange is the New Black on Netflix and it took me 3 days to get through the 13 episodes of season one. It may have taken over from my obsession of Lost Girl temporarily. Alex is.. Well, I would say a 11 out of 10. Bad ass and mysterious is something I like in a person in shows. That, and the hilarious sidekicks in shows. They’re always pretty awesome too. I still have season 2 to get through, which I’m sure I’ll power through when Ive got time. I actually got my mum watching it, too!

Anyway, I’m ready to get into some PJ’s and see to the duckies for their bed time. I hope you have an amazing day and I will talk to you soon!

BUH-BYE <3

 

I just officially booked my September flights! It was more expensive this time than it was the previous two times, but it was a good job I saved up so much money for it. Depart at Noon from LHR on September 13th and arrive at Washington Airport (My favourite) for 3;15, and then end up getting to McGhee Tyson airport for 6;15pm in Knoxville. Will’s picking me up this time because Misa will be down in Ducktown visiting her Aunt Bunny for, I think, a family wedding. But I’ll get to the house and crash, and when I wake up Misa will be there and it’ll be awesome. I can’t wait to go to my American home <3

I’ve got something like £400 to play with until I get paid next Friday (Which is Friday 13th DUN-DUN-DUUUUN) so I think we’re all good. I'm totes magotes rich.

So, I’ve been all go since Wednesday, and I’ll be all go for the next week and a bit too. Oh my days. Wednesday night I had AJ and Tara sleep over, and then Thursday I had my hair cut. Then on Friday I did my usual bakery stuff before getting driven home by Liam so I could change my clothes, and then we went around to four different co-op stores to do a wines and spirits test purchase (To make sure they ID’ed me) and then as soon as I got back, the delivery was in so I had to rack that away. Bare in mind I was still in my leggings and new awesome boots. Speaking of my boots, I HAVENT SHOWN YOU! EEK.

So purdy. Anyway, on with what I was doing Friday. After I finished work at oooh, maybe 1pm? I went straight to Dawns for a few hours and Babysat from 5pm until Nigel got home. I got a whole pizza for doing that, haha. Saturday morning I worked from 6am until I think 12 and after I had come  home and taken a 3 hour nap, I hopped in the shower, got changed and went over Dawns again to have a games night. I ended up sleeping on the couch, which was the first time Ive slept at dawns. It wasnt too bad. Pretty comfy actually. Sunday we spent just relaxing, popped up to Tesco and the Range to buy a few things, and when we got back, the kids spent some time in the paddling pool and we had a BBQ! It was pretty damn cool. But I feel like I’ve been NON-STOP! Its crazy!

I have to work Monday-Wednesday, and babysit Wed from 5pm onwards, then Thursday is my day off but I babysit from 4pm onwards so dawn can go into work early, and then I work Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Yeah. I work Sunday this weekend. And the reason behind it, I am not all that impressed with. The usual baker for Sundays basically can’t be responsible enough at her mothers birthday night out on Saturday. She cant control herself when it comes to alcohol, apparently, enough so that she wont stop herself from drinking so much that she wont have a hangover for the shift she should be doing in the morning. And today she called in sick and put everyone in a bad situation all because of… wait for it… a toothache. oh, children.

Oh well, at least its a little extra money. I got my £40 thank you vouchers today, and £20 I gave to mum to help for Milk and stuff. The other 20 went on reducing the overall price of my plane tickets.

Anywho, I have to take my tablets now so I’ll leave it at that. I hope you have an amazing day, dearest reader, and I will keep you updated!
