Saturday evening

Good evening peeps,

Just briefly because I am too tired.

Yesterday I got up early and headed off for a hard day's work on the gardening team, then I came home long enough to shower and change before working a shift at the homeless shelter, technically my working day was then 8.30am to 11pm plus journeys to and from work.

So I was tired this morning when I woke, so I lazily cleaned the flat while still in pyjamas.
Then I was off running errands before going back to do another shift with the homeless.
The centre that cooks meals is closed at the weekend, so I was tasked to go and get fish and chips, I took one of the homeless lads to help me as that was a lot of fish and chips to carry, and then we all ate enough to feel sleepy. I think the chip shop thought they were dreaming when we brought the list of orders in!

My car smells of homeless lad and chips, haha. It was another good shift, and I drove home through the cold quiet night and tried not to think about Christmas, because last Christmas, as with all Christmases, was too painful, and last Christmas day was the last time I saw my friend alive, she died a few weeks after Christmas.

I am so tired and I have so much to do, I hope more volunteers are found for the homeless project soon as although I love it, I mustn't let my university work fall behind.
