    Its my Day off:j

    I have a quick training session to do this morning and then nothing planned for the whole day, caught up on the housework over the weekend as we had people coming round so just have to tidy up a bit.

    Sun is shining but its really cold...........dont mind I am not at work:D

    Weigh in tonight, I had better have lost something this week otherwise I will be impossible:o

    Catch you all later and have a good Chewsday:cool:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Morning everyone,

    today I will be fending off the 'any news yet?' phone calls and texts. I'm not due for another 10 days so they have started early.

    My brother and SIL are coming to visit this evening, they live in Norwich but have to go into London for the day, I'm really looking forward to seeing them.

    Hugs to all who need them, Bunny I hope you get good news about the job, I'm sure it would be ok, but bloody hell you'd think they'd ask during the application stages if it was that important wouldn't you.

  • Funny you should say that Toto-I think that is my main upset over all this-they have had my application for over 2 weeks and just noticed AFTER they offered me the job. I suppose it's a vote of confidence that they are willing to try and see if there is a way to have me work there but for me the worst thing is all the feelings it has ploughed up over the living and breathing monster that goes by the name of 'mydebt'. I am getting those feelings of inadequacy, overwhelming sadness, failure all over again and I fought so hard to get away from all that negativity...anyway-DH has been ever so good and in a 'manly' sort of way has pointed out the my track record is pretty damn good on the interview:job offer ratio and to just keep going and I will find another job Im sure....

    Anyhoo, enough dwelling-did my Virgin party last night-50 mile round trip drive and it was PANTS. I did a really good 'presentation', we played games that had them screaming with laughter, did a wonderful makeover-but they only spent £100-barely worth me making the effort. I am so tired of doing them tbh, I will be packing it in once I finish of the bookings I have now-Ive lost my Virgin mojo.

    So, for the rest of the day, I shall be job hunting.

    Toto, I hope you pop soon my lovely friend.

    Morning all

    Toto..you droppped yet?:rotfl:

    well ladies this morning I put on a pair of jeans that normally I have to squeeeeeeeeeeeze into.....and they fit perfectly:j:j:j:j:j:j

    It is the stress or being in love?:think::think:

    or the stress of being in love;)

    who knows but:T:T:T:T:Tme:D

  • skinny malinky jinky!! well done babes! probably hit the nail on the head with the stress thing... but nice if it gets you into your skinny jeans!

    morning all others... i'm going to try not to be a moaning ole faart today and spoil everyone's day... but needless to say nothing changed overnight! however before i shut up, i have a quandry........

    Erin is going to Brownie camp on Friday 21st for 2 nights... i am dreading it. What am i going to do for 2 nights without her around? Am i going to have to spend 2 nights in the house with Big G... ordinarily i would suggest that we go away somewhere for a night, but that would indicate i give a shiit and want to spend time with him... or should i try harder and go somewhere, one last ditch effort?

    answers on a postcard please.....

    Alternatively i might just go out on the ran dan with friends...

    Ah Maz:grouphug:
    that is why i went a bit nuts on Friday night:rolleyes:,cos after Shannon went to bed it was just me and him.....obviously my situation is slightly different.....and I spent all day thinking about it till i couldnt stand it any longer:cool:
    i feel for you I really do Hun:kiss:

    If it seems that bad I would go out with my friends TBH:cool:

  • not bad, just boring.......

    i'll ask him what he wants to do when she is away... if he says nothing, or has other plans then that will speak volumes... will probably end up going to my sisters or somewhere... the joys! he might surprise me and say he's booked a hotel and is planning on whisking me away somewhere but i can't imagine it somehow! and if he did i would probably feel like a fraud.....

    on another happy note i won £40 on the weekly bonus ball draw from last weekend, which paid for the Brownie camp, £35 nicely.... so that was good!!
