  • well, the mountain of washing up is done (I have no idea how that much accumulates in 24 hours).

    I've also applied for the job I was ummming and aahhing about last week. It still doesn't 'excite' me (seond main responsibility is 'be lead for Health and Safety for department' :rolleyes: ) but it is full time and would mean after my deparment moves, I wouldn't have a 45 minute journey each way to work.

    Even if I don't get an interview, it's the first full time job I've had the confidence to apply for since all the stuff I went through with Cruella so I feel that's a step in itself.

    Well done BB.

    Buffy, you need to either do as Bunny says and talk to your mum about things (I know this may seem impossible) or start looking for somewhere else to live otherwise your health will suffer! is it possible that this stress has triggered the acne BTW? I have ezcema which is often stress related so my skin often tells me I'm stressed before my brain has recognised it!

    Brr! Went out for a quick walk and got absolutely soaked, complete change of clothes and still trying to warm up. Cooking some windfall apples that I found when I was out though, so lovely stewed apple smell in the house :D

    Well done on the job application BB :T

    We did a scientific experiment yesterday - compared Baileys to the cheaper Tesco version. Tesco version won :D

    I love Baileys at Christmas but never bother any other times of the year. I guess I dont feel guilty having the 1,000,000 calories a glass at Christmas:rolleyes:

    Well done on the run Bunny:j

    Pleased you have put in for that job BB.

    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
