Well, its been a mixed week. Had a crappy old day in work Wednesday, and am generally feeling a little under-appreciated at work this week - am sure it will pass (it normally does), but sometimes I can feel the enthusiasm being pummeled out of me. As usual, my review pointed towards me 'meeting expectations', and as usual I am fobbed off with the claim that my company has 'high expectations' that I am expected to meet.... this always makes it difficult for me to give high ratings to my staff too, as I have to take the company definition of these ratings into account. It sucks! Would be nice if some of my ideas, and my ability to work with others, were noticed a little more. Anyway... that's my usual rant of the year over with!
Haven't done an awful lot outside of work. Last night, I cooked our fave meal at the moment - Lentil and Aubergine curry, which I have to say is bloody delicious. Its more of a tarka dhal than anything else, but man is it tasty! I will print the recipe here some time....
Got no real plans for the weekend... probably watching football tomorrow, and hoping to do something nice and 'couply' on Sunday, as this will be Mark's last full weekend off for a while (boo). Am planning to cook a malt loaf over the weekend (gosh - how exciting!)... I WILL be a domestic goddess one day! ;-)
Much love - have a great weekend

PS. A HUGE Happy Birthday to my Dad for Sunday. He will be a staggering 58 this year! Bless him... still as young as ever (he still thinks he is 20!).
