I don't have time to make the sheep, the 11th is next tues, f**k! If I use all of my free time to make the sheep I will

have to rush everything else and give up my writing which was finally going right to do it. I wish I'd ordered the first

sheep I saw on Amazon the day I found out but I assumed I had till Christmas and I'm not good at choosing things

quickly. That's why all my other Christmas pressies have been planned for months.

Glass sheep will be arriving at local jewelers on Sat, hurrah! I will need to make a cute hoist for it so it can hang but

I think I can do that with some festive ribbon. I didn't expect them to have anything affordable.

Calmer now, just feel a bit sheepish about my earlier panic.

A lot of professional athletes seem to die in that 55-65 age group which isn't that old.

"Read a career summary of the Dynamite Kid on a German website recently. The most unbelievable thing about this was his daily routine at the height of his career:

-Morning: Speed to get out of bed
-Afternoon: Valium to sleep during travels
-Wrestling: Pain killers to be able to wrestle
-Evening: Beer and cocain to have fun while partying
-Night: Valium to sleep

With that kind of almost daily drug intake, I am surprised that this lifestyle did not take him sooner"

It is terribly sad how professionals used drugs to get by and the ordinary person, especially in the 80's and 90's.

I have lost a few friends to drugs.

I would gamble on his heart being enlarged with all that training and drug taking putting a strain on it.

One of my best friends died a few years ago and he had a heart attack - his hedonist years caught up with him.

I am excited to have used a parcel locker at Morrisons and it all went well. (apart from my printer ink being dried out)

I got a very good deal using parcel 2 go and it made it cheaper than going on the actual sites of the individual courier companies.

The post office wanted £13 to post my parcel via parcelforce and p2go quoted me just over £8 for parcelforce.

The best quote was InPost at £5.50 and I got to do a bit of shopping whilst there at Morrisons, although the lockers are available 24/7

Just to top it off I got 10 fish fingers for 72p and 4 cheese muffins for 50p. I also threw in a Pukka pie - yum.
