Day 6

I know i have missed day 3, 4 & 5, this is not because i smoked but because it has been the weekend.

Friday was a good day.

Did the usual of going to work and then going home. Didn't really do much and Friday night me and the gf spent it cuddled up on the sofa watching TV and a film.

Saturday was shopping day.

Me the gf and my son went shopping with a friend of the gf to C'bury. My plan for me was to get a pair of trousers, a pair of shoes and some t-shirts.

So I left the gf and her friend and took my son with me, first stop was a clothes shop and the last time I took my son in here I couldn't concentrate as he kept running about and guess what no change, so when I do catch him he asks for a hot dog, now I know I should have bribed him and told only once i have brought some tops but I couldn't be bothered, so we left the shop and went for a stroll. Unbeknown to me i have walked straight past the hot dog stand and have made it to the end past all the shops with no hot dog in hand, so we turn around and on the way back I stop in a couple of shoe shops but the prices almost make me cry so I leave and we finally find the hot dog stand and we go and sit down whilst my son finishes his hot dog.

We deiced to walk back up and visit Next as he is after some sun glasses, which is a slight problem as he seems to have a bigger head than most children, not that you can tell until you try and find a hat in his size. I bump in to a friend of mine on the way, she is with her daughter and her mum so we all walk up together. We leave then in next and go and get the glasses for him, whilst doing that i get a call from my brother saying he is now in town and where shall we meet, so I tell him where we are and when he arrives we take a wonder to the pub.

Now there are loads of bars but i need somewhere with a beer garden, so I need a pub, luckily my brother has now been living here for a couple of months so knows where to go, well that's what I thought, when we do finally arrive I am impressed he knew about this place. Its a 14th Century pub that has tables out the back and some sun but some great choice of ale on. So we go and sit in the garden whilst we have a beer which was nice and my son is perfect.

Once we have supped up my brother goes to meet his friends and i go to meet up with the gf and she is paying for something when my son does a runner, now I am thinking he is just inside the shop next door, so I go in and can't see him, I look down each of the aisles and still nothing, so i walk round the shop and realise there is a door at the other end, so I go out and there he is running back to me, so I let him know that I am not happy with him with and why he shouldn't run off.

So once all that is done, I could go on but how much more about shopping do you want to hear, we go home and relax for a bit (oh I didn't get any of the items I wanted).

So Saturday evening the gf goes out to an Ann Summers party, I think she did this so she didn't have to watch one of my Manga films (Japanese Animation), so I call a friend up and he comes round with supplies (JD, Vodka, Lemonade, Coke and nibbles). So we have another DVD marathon, we seem to be having this once or twice a month now where we sit and chat and watch a two to three dvd's in the night (whilst drinking of course) The gf got in about 2 half 2, a bit worse for wear and we finished up about half 3 and I then head up to bed.

Sunday was was spent taking it easy in the morning (slightly tired and hungover). When the gf got back from work she didn't seem in the best of moods and seeing as our son was asleep I told her to lie down for half an hour. My son woke nearly to the minute was up on the half hour so I got him dressed and the gf got dressed and we all went to her mums for a bbq as it was the gf's younger brothers b'day on Friday and her elder brother is going to the US for 3 months. I ended up doing all the cooking again, I sort of moan that I do it all the time but then I do enjoy it and its the alpha male gene in me that says only I can cook the food well.

So after the bbq we head home and my son stays up to watch Dr Who and after that he goes to bed and me and the gf just lay on the sofa. We start watching her program and I can tell we are both knackered so I suggest we watch it in bed. Which is what we do and then promptly fall asleep when it is finished, the time was Ten o'clock :)

And today is Day 6 of not smoking.

It hasn't been to bad but did feel the urge/need on Saturday night when my friend was round as we would normally pause the dvd and nip out for a smoke, which we did this time but instead I just watched and drank :)
