    We-ell. Almost a blank canvas.

    My background is divided, I have either worked in finance (credit control mostly) or in education, and I feel torn between wanting to start studying towards something in accountancy, or something more on the social sciences scale, with a view to progressing into counselling - this comes from the education side which has largely been involved in special educational needs.

    So what is it you do now? A list of pros and cons is always a good place to start. Writing things down clarifies them for me
    I don't wear heels much because I'm fairly tall, but would a low heel be a compromise? These are nice, non? Well I keep eyeing them up for work but I need new trousers first.

    For anyone with legs other of a width that isn't standard HIGH STREET then go to Duo - they're fab, I want some of the Bern style this year...

    Hubbles is 6'1" and I'm 5'6" so I can get away with heels. I have some lovely Miss Sixty cowboy boots but they're pull on and the effort is just too much at the moment:p I'll probably get something with a mid stack heel such as these... so long as I can be confident I'm not going to fall if it gets slippy/snowy

  • Very nice BB - can you manage a slight wedge at all? I find them a good alternative to heels - the emphasis being on slight.

    DS is in a GREAT mood compared to last night - and he has WALKED today! ACtual proper steps, towards me, and then OH :D:D:D :T :T :T he is 11 months today :)

  • May I ask a question? (a non-perverted one for once)

    I know we all have DFW goals, usually with a DFD in the future. I have been thinking about a few other things in my life today and I was wondering - do any of you set (flexible) timetables for other goals? Such as having a two/five/ten year plan etc.
