Four Seasons In One Day

Well not quite four seasons – but so much has happened in just one day today I can’t quite believe it…..

First off I had a massive sleep last night so I feel so much more sane today than I have felt in about 3 weeks. Had a nice morning to myself – popped to Bromley to exchange some trousers for my husband (it gets more exciting, honest) and was having a leisurely coffee at home before picking up the Tobester when my phone rang.

My agent. Not my personal management agent who I do hear from occasionally – my commercials agent who I haven’t spoken to for a year. I’ve got a job – someone has booked me just from seeing my picture on their website. £500 for a day’s work, photographic, in Slough and no, I don’t have to get my tits out Moxie before you ask!

Excellent news. I’m ringing round trying to sort out childcare when agent rings again! Same agency, different person – audition for tomorrow for another photographic job which would pay £600 for half a day’s work if I get it. And since Rob is off tomorrow I can swan up to London and be an actor for the day! Lovely

Then I check my email and see that I’ve got a code to buy tickets for Michael Jackson even though they don’t go on sale to the general public till Friday. I know someone at Toby’s nursery has been up since 6am trying to get tickets. I go to ticketmaster and just see – and get 2 tickets for his show. I plan to flog them for a profit. I know I’ve tried this before but Spice Girl tickets weren’t such a great bet. I think I’ll be fine with Jacko.

Then Rob rings. He’s got a promotion – to senior management – with up to a 10% pay rise. We don’t know how much he’ll get or his new title yet – he’s going to get a letter from HR but his boss just wanted to let him know!

Then in Oscar’s school bag I see a letter about Parent – Governors – there’s a vacancy….and I’m considering applying. Something to get my brain whizzing anyway!

So all that happened from 11am onwards – my head is in a bit of a whirl. We’re about to order a takeaway from Royal Gurkha to celebrate (can’t believe I want curry but it’s just so good and not spicy and I’m craving peshwari naan!)

Let’s hope tomorrow is fun too – cross your fingers for me!
