Thanks Nats - at least someone wished me luck (not a dig at anyone on here btw!)
Meeting went well, had to come home and slightly adjust the CV for that particular job - when I say 'adjust' - I don't mean lie in anyway - just make sure I focussed more on a certain element of my recent job rather!
Anyway - feeling a little sorry for myself today- not getting as much support as the beginning of the week, perhaps doing the 'big brave emms' hasn't paid off. Also getting a little paranoid about stuff - but hey ho - its all probably part of what happened monday :rolleyes: although I know a bit of it was there beforehand... just feel like I'm making all the effort?
Anywayssssss..... on to more constructive things. Today I have
Cleaned the bathroom
Called one of the direct debit companies (I can't find any paperwork for the other one to get a number!)
Called Mortgage co, can't take payment holiday unfortunately due to same as Retro - not enough LTV... but at least it has gone down at the moment!!
Applied for another job online
Cleaned kitchen
Off round a friends this afternoon - get cuddles from her toddler and bubba (my god daughter) - always helps
Hope you're all having a good friday and catch ya laters my little alligators!!

You've been VERY productive today, and I imagine you're still at it this afternoon.
Sorry to hear about the mortgage. I was so gutted when we found out. Funny how they change the value of your house without telling you, but if YOU think it's still worth x amount then YOU can pay £200 for a valuation I was told! Hmmm. Not really fair that, is it?!

Hey Emms - glad to see you're being as constructive as always! - Your idea to treat the job search as a full time job in itself is a great one!
I'm so sorry you're feeling a little down - but that's only natural! You would indeed be superwoman if you weren't feeling it a bit at the mo!
What are you para about? Is it to do with the mano in your life (Sorry - call me cynical if you like - but I somehow always assume these things are related to the other sex!). Feel free to offload on here if you want to! - you can always PM me if you want to chat?
Anyways - I am not going to wish you luck - because quite frankly you don't need it!!You're a very determined, tenacious young woman - with a sparkling personality to boot - so I've no doubt you'll be back at work in no time - and who knows - whatever's round the corner might just be better than what you're leaving behind?
xx
PS Hope you don't think I'm making light of your situation - obviously it's scary stuff when you have a mortgage to pay and no job - right this minute - but if you put yourself across even 10% as well in an interview as you do on here, then I have every faith in you that you'll turn it around sharpish!!0 -

I think Emms had put herself 'somewhere safe' and we all know what that means.
Cheer up Nats we will find her, she'll probably be in the box under your bed next to the red bikini with the spookilly quick fading bottoms;)LBM- finally kicked in 16/12/08 @ [strike]£41,862 [/strike] £0.00/ DFD- 24/12/13
