    Hello!

    Got a call back from the job and theyve asked me to attend one of their seminars tomorrow evening and then have a chat with the guy that runs it, bout hours and start dates etc.
    Which is all sounding really positive.

    Downside is that my area manager informed me today that I'll be given my 4 weeks notice on monday and they expect all managers to work it, otherwise we wont get any notice period pay nor any redundancy pay.

    DH's advice is to give them one weeks notice, on monday, and then be done with it..... which i dont want to go down that route and part with the company on bad terms but in the long run I need to have secured employment.....

    Its all so stressful!

    Awww Bella, hope its not as "painful" for you and you're not too sad!

    Gordon is MENTAL tonight, hes being a savage!

    I think its coz he was alone for 4 hours, then saw me for 20 mins at lunch and then had 4 hours on his own again, and now he just wants attention and to get rid of pent up energy, but he'll tire himself out in a minute and then be zonked LOL

    Thats truly freaky!!! Gordon has been harassing Phezzy but hes not entertained with his dinner :)

    Thanks Hypno hun..... I reckon I've got 6 more hurdles to overcome and then life will be good again....
    So theres
    1 : Get job offer
    2 : Negotiate good terms of new job offer
    3 : Get early release from existing job
    4 : Get redundany pay from new job or from old
    5 : Get items from old job that are going free/low cost to clear listed on ebay
    6 : Start new job

    Ahhh thats really pants hun, I hope you feel better real soon, just take it real easy and give yourself lots of "me" time....

    Ive had a nice chilled morning of taking Gordon for his injection and then in 2 weeks we can take him out for walkies!
    Also found a nice farm shop which is about a 10 minute walk from our cottage, and lovely parents who came down with me treated me to some veggies for a nice stew! YUM.....
    Will try that one for tomorrow night I think, will chop it up and throw in the slow cooker tomorrow when I leave for work and should be ultra yummy by the time I get home xx

    Bit concerned about Gordon as he hasn't had a poop yet today from breakfast at half 8....... hes eaten two meals and had quite a few drinks of water.....so its got to come out at some point surely!:(
