Fabby high but some bad news too

Bad bad bad Sara LOL...I installed civ and civ 2 and then spent yonks playing civ 2 LOL...Not played civ3 before and am not gonna install it just yet...Can't get hooked on it again or i be in trouble and never get anything done ROFL

So i went out and dropped off G's meds for his trip...Then on way back i went into the paper mill...I've never been in their shop before...Well i was in heaven LOL...They had so many different colours of card and paper with so many different finished...Rows and rows...Huge sheets and smaller A4 size sheets...The A4 size sheets on the purple shelves you could fill either a plastic box or a cardboard box up...I used the cardboard box....Which is your A4 size and about an inch n half deep...Same size as when you go buy a packet of printer paper...So you can imagine just how many sheets of paper and card i have in there (well over 100)...And all that cost me only £4.95 :o) Loads of pearlescent finishes with different textures...They also had massive punches which you can use to make your own apertures on cards with for only £6.99...So i bought one today LOL...They also had translucent paper with different finishes to it and in different colours...Bit like coloured tracing paper...One woman in there asked me if i knew if printer ink would take on the metallic/pearlescent card...Said i didn't know but to ask the woman behind the counter...Unfortunately i didn't manage to overhear their conversation...The woman had 400 orders of service to do hence wanting to know...I'd have liked to know too...So next time am out there i will be asking about if you can print on the various papers/card...See can make my own cards with these different finishes and textures but i will need a better creasing machine first...My cutter can cut normal straight edge, wavy (it's a bit pants), crease and perforate...The perforater bit works well and so does the straight edge...The other two don't work as well <sigh>

I've had bad news today...Got a letter from the social worker...She's got a new job so has left :o(  So am without a named one again...I'll be phoning the head of the team and demanding a new named worker LOL...I know they are extremely short staffed and chances aren't very high...Thing is G will be 18 next march and once 18 you transfer to adult services...So i really need someone during this period...Not like am going to be in the head of the teams hair for that much longer so he can just jolly well accomodate me <ggg>...Why is it everytime i have one i really like, who is good, helps a lot and actually listens do i lose them after a couple of years <sigh>

 Need to go pick up Gs prescription for more puffers as i forgot on way home DOH!!!...Just remembered and he needs one to take away...Got to chuck some clothes in the tumble drier and pack all his gear tonight...Some of you i am about to send email to...I don't want to post these pics here as it is public...I do want opinion from those i send it to though please :o)  Pic of Gs new haircut...Grumpy didn't want his pic taken hence the glower and looking up at the camera LOLOL...It has been highlighted blonde again but not so much blonde as before and a lot shorter than what i left him having done...But hey it's his hair and he can do whatever he wants with it...If he wants to dye it tartan with pink spots i don't care...His hair and he's the one who has to live with whatever is done to it....Besides i will heavily encourage both him and M to do what any other teenager does to their hair...Just because they are ASD doesn't mean they have to have some regimental bog standard hair cut or colour like MrsP seems to think LOLOL
