Snow - Bah Humbug.

I'm ill. That sucks.

Coughing (yeah thanks asthma) sneezing temperature joy. Being ill means I'm not allowed out in the snow at all But all the Bristol buses are cancelled so not sure how many of the 'Brizzle Crew' will be in anyway. Now it's even stopped snowing, I tell you I'm not amused today. Really what do you expect...

Naturally, this means travel chaos, school closures, horsemen of the apocalypse and so on. Got to love England's reaction to snow.

Gordano seems to be bent on staying open whatever happens. Monday/Tuesday we had crazzzzy amounts of snow and STILL it stayed open, compared to todays piddly amount not much hope. But gotta feel sorry for the year 7 who lost a tooth to a snow ball :(

Maybe some good will come of this though. I can lie in bed and try do some homework as the teachers seem to be going totally crazy with it at the moment.

On a totally new front, last Saturday I was confronted for the first time, with the true reality of death. At the home where I work one of the residents 'passed on' and I was given the task of calling the funeral directors and then showing them to the body etc. Gotta say it was all abit grim. Then I get to the room and see this small, frail frame, clasping a wedding ring box in one hand, I had to bite back the tears.

But, being confronted with the reality that is death really made me think. That could be me,I could be lying under a white sheet tomorrow (hopefully not but still) But yeah, it's made me really value what I have I think. I've decided I want to smooth down the rough bits of my life, because it could be me.

Well anyway, I'm now gonna retire to my bed.. well I'm already there, I'll justturn off the laptop tbh. Bye now :) x x
