Gah, this is doing my head in. I'm sat at my desk in the middle of London, not a tree or blade of grass to be seen, and all I want is to GO HOME! Work is just so damn disruptive

Whats everyone else up to? Please make me feel better and say that you are working/studying - basically anything other than 'enjoying yourself'

I am slogging away at work too - frustrating thing is the horses live on a yard next door (literally 20 foot away) and I cant go do stuff with them.
frown.gif
Just been outside and can see them in the field, the two mares are flat out sunbathing....
laugh.gif
 
Same here and what's worse is that I've got nothing to do so a long drawn out boring day. I could go home, but I'm on a daily rate so not here = no money! Still got HHO to keep me company for the afternoon!
 
Stuck at work, 5 minutes from home, thinking of all the horsey things and gardening things I could be doing!

Slow week (end of month) so nothing to do. In fact, I have 2 orders to do, but I'm saving them for this afternoon otherwise it will be soooo slooooow.

Roll on 4pm!!!
 
At work.. also saving work for this afternoon or it will drag!!
Horses are 15mins away, prob also sunbathing. Wish i was too! Lunch soon though will have a quick sit out then, prob just make it worse to come bk in though!! Grr, why cant we all be sent home!!
smile.gif
 
At work too......
frown.gif
.......although, no job=no hosses

....although plenty of trees outside....I will nip home for lunch in the garden and then at 5pm its freedom time!!!

Horses all mucked out this am, so tonight I can do nice things...

Oh I'm so glad other people are in work with not much to do and its not just me. I am really just pretending to work as have nothing happening at all. I had one quote to do and (stupidly) did it first thing so now have NOTHING (other than playing on HHO of course
grin.gif
)
 
I too am in the office
mad.gif
Just went to collect some event stuff from our storeroom across the road and its glorious sunshine. Much rather be playing with the ponios.
 
Thank god for HHO - keeping people amused when there's no work to do
grin.gif


Is it just me, or is anyone else finding this week is REALLY dragging??
 
Its frustrating isn't it? Its so much better when your busy as before u know it, its hometime!! I'm quite good at looking busy now! although fridays are hard work as i generally want to be planning my weekend!!
smile.gif
 
Ok - so now you are all going to hate me!!!

I am 'working from home' today
smile.gif
- so far I have answered a couple of emails then nipped out to do some work on the lunge with my mare - had a nice cold shower when she finished and is out sunbathing and eating. I have a lesson on my boy at 2 - so we will both need a cold shower when that has finished!!

Have just popped in to a bit more work before tacking up my boy......
wink.gif


in my defence I was away with work from Sun - Friday last week.....
tongue.gif
 
I am house sitting at work, all I have to do is get my butt away from this PC and finish cleaning the house, I will then have the afternoon to myself and can go and spend time with my neds (they live at where I work).
 
Uggh slinkyunicorn, that was cruel of you. (but I suppose - grudgingly - I will admit that you have earned it!
grin.gif
)

Only thing I have this afternoon is a Review with my boss (always a joy... not
frown.gif
).
 
I'm painting!!!!! But at home, so does that count?
wink.gif


Horse are all happy, grazing or sunbathing, will do some more with them when it cools off later!!!
grin.gif
grin.gif


To all of you at work...I sympathise!
frown.gif
It's awful stuck in an office when then sun's shining and you could be doing something else!!
frown.gif
 
I'm stuck behind my desk in London too if that's any consolation.....

I'm considering going to meet Park Ranger for lunch and a chat......

Argh - it seems such a waste of a nice day to be stuck indoors!

Hope everyone gets to spend lots of sunshine time with their ponies tomoro!!
grin.gif
 
Im sitting behind my desk waiting for the phone to ring. Very quiet today, every one must be out in the sun (except me !) Only got 30 mins for lunch - lucky old me
grin.gif
sitting here thinking about whether to ride in the menage or go for a hack later - dicisions dicisions
grin.gif
 
Well I'm insanely jealous of you all because not only am I stuck at work with lots to do (this is my half hour lunch break) but I'm stuck here until 5.30pm and my boss is off work enjoying the sunshine! 5.30pm seems so far away!
 
I'm really evil.

been for a glorious hack on my connie and planning to school the other one once my lunch has settled.
 
I am revising..not allowed to ride the horse all week and he is 1 hour away anyway. Learning about triglycerides, unsaturated fat, and carbon bonds- thrilling!
 
I'm stuck in a sweaty office too with the fan on full blow, although it's drying my contact lenses out!

Then off home at 5pm, well down the yard (take my change of clothnig in the car) check on Mr M and Ro, then straight down to another yard to jump into the horsebox and off to pick some a couple of horses up and move them to some other fields, the rest on Sunday I think. Was supposed to be riding as well this evening, but thats horses for ya.

Then I will be going home and hopefully be back to watch Britains got Talant and I could kill for a nice cold bottle (well glass) of wine but OH is on a health kick and all chocolate, buscuits and drink is banned
frown.gif
instead we have cupboards full of pasta and rabbit food
grin.gif


why I am telling you this?
confused.gif
I'll shut up now.
grin.gif
 
Kenzo.....health FACT...a risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease is, in fact NO alcohol!!!

Yes indeedy, you are allowed, nay, encouraged to have at least 'a few' glasses of wine per week.
wink.gif


tell your OH this health-related issue ASAP.....I shall write you out a prescription for wine immediately
grin.gif
 
Orrrh god he's going through a mega fitness craze at the moment, body is a temple an all! ....hopefully it wear off eventually.
grin.gif


I think I'll call at the Co-op on my way back from collecting my car and buy myself a nice bottle of white, come to think of it I'll probably need it after sorting these two mares out, thankfully ones of them loads but on the other hand she bites and kicks so if you don't hear from me, I shall leave you Mackenzie in my Will
grin.gif
laugh.gif
lol other one shouldn't be too bad its only a 2yr old but a friendly at least.
 
Stuck in the office until 5 :-( watching the glorious sunshine outside and wishing I was in the garden on a lounger reading H&H (which I didn't get round to last night) and drinking Pimms :-)
 
I have just got back from hacking my pony round the crop fields with Popple running alongside
grin.gif
grin.gif
 
Sat at my desk with 2 jumpers on, freezing my backside off as some cretin has put the air con on "arctic".
What makes it worse, is my mother in Law has just called and said that her new pony is on the way and will be arriving any min. I desperately wanted to be there and am dropping hints as subtle as bowling balls signalling that I want to go home. To no avail unfortunatley.
frown.gif

Roll on 5 o clock, then i'm off until next Wednesday - Yip Yippee!!
