I Have Kittens

I have TWO little girl kittens....born on SATURDAY! They will live with their mother and sibblings on a nearby farm for another month or so....then it will be tabby cat-ville for me!

I took some pictures when they were two days old....I will post more on my photo site asap

So what else has been happening. Its been a functional week so far. I had my reassessment at Cannon's and Jodie added some more torture to my schedule!

She told me I had lost 2 % of my body fat over six weeks. That's one in the eye for the people at Newcastle eh? I had my blood pressure measured by a nurse in Burntwood and that is normal too.

I also did a yoga class for the first time. I feel obliged to go to Esporta every alternate session to use this free week pass I have....I think I would only join if I moved to Stafford - which I still hope to do.

I got a bit of a knock back from the Burton Mail. They wanted as article for their monthly OUR TIME magazine. But now, although they still want it - they don't want to pay me for it.

It astounds me how badly people treat journalists. You wouldn't consider not paying a plumber or electrician would you?

I think people who have images of reporters as being nasty are pretty dumb....

The most nasty people I have every met have almost without fail been 'businessmen'. Its always the reporters who get shit upon, especially on evening papers.

I was talking to a friend, a former journalist, last week and we were saying the way journalists get shouted at and bullied by men/women in suits in ivory towers would be unbelievable in any other profession.

AND the average reporter earns HALF what a NURSE does......and nurses ALWAYS complain about bad money and long hours.

Rant over......meeting Vickie P for lunch then badminton tonight at Oak Park.
