I dont think Lou would like that sort of smut on her thread

I think she decided on none

I was a cat too, but no chance of that happening with 2 dogs in the house

We have had a lovely weekend, fireworks last night and a good few glasses of vino.

Boys had their drum exam today which they have both passed
Managed not to be persuaded to have a takeaway tonight despite OH's best efforts

Good weekend all round............sunny skies at the moment

Trying to stay positive............. Maybe a rant will help
  1. I have 2 accountancy exams first week in December the quality of teaching has been so rubbish that I cannot see me passing either one of them unless I lock myself in a room for the next 3 weeks.
  2. I am being observed next week at work and I have been told that it will be one of the classes that I was wishing wouldnt be
  3. I just cannot seem to pay off anywhere near the amount of debt I wanted to as there just seems to be one thing after another to pay out.
  4. I am nowhere near sorted for Christmas and dont even know what to get anyone.........
Rant over

rant away - it's your thread.

1. do you have time to lock yourself away? could you ask for more info or help?

2. You are fab, try not to worry and it's sods law that it'll always be the ones you don't want that are picked!

3. would suggest a big push MB or something but you don't really have that much time these days so just take comfort from the fact it's going down however slowly...

4. Join the club! I ignore it till Nov then panic!
