    I have to thank you all - it's amazing what a difference one weeks flying has made. When I settled down for QI earlier - loved the paper bit - I didn't feel at all guilty. Cleared a v small hotspot that had started in about 1 minute, and wondered around actively looking for something to do, and THERE WAS NOTHING! House is fresh, clean and clear! Cat is wondering what is going on!

    I am loving it, and will keep going - will (weatherpermitting) tackle the car tomorrow, in absence of a list - have a great time off, Pigpen!

    Hi All
    I have had my consultation & now know what I am dealing with 'Leiomyosarcoma' which is basically a rare large cancerous tumour in the womb.
    Hugs LL, I know it was a massive shock (I can only imagine how you felt) but at least you know what it is now and I am sending massive vibes that it has all been removed and you will be now be OK.

    That bank have phoned me...gist of it is D are passing the buck and blaming B & C. They have seven days...countdown has started AND I expect my charges/costs covered...trouble is anybody phoning here is getting a terse 'hello' when I answer the phone:o cos I am so cross...
    At least with TWO payments going missing I so KNOW who's at fault...
    Have you thought about writing to D in a formal letter? sometimes they need to see it in black and white to act - maybe by email and letter? It's easy to fob you off on the phone, but letters and emails just seem to add more bite.

    Was going to catch up and do some housework, but I didn't get anything done as another rush job just came on... typical, so this answer has been sitting on my computer for the past 3 hours!!! Hey Ho...

    I will go to see my client tomorrow morning and THEN I WILL CLEAN, I PROMISE!!!

    That's a great idea! I have been to a Teaching Fair in Bristol, contacted TDA and GTTR - not one has mentioned this! I will get onto schools first thing [strike]tomorrow[/strike]oops Monday, to see if there are any Unqualified positions available - usually difficult in Devon, as the positions are highly sought after....but fingers crossed! Thanks Flylady Flower
    No problem, I am sure that is what Nikki is doing, she will probably be able to help you more than me. Good luck with it all.

    It was great advice, Flyladyflower - I am looking at the website now! Bit confusing regarding the available places, but I will call on Monday. Have also e-mailed regarding a Citizenship place I was approached about recently - by hook or by crook!! Not getting this job (Civil Service, not teaching) has sharpened my efforts - and if I can get employment based training, I'll be chuffed to bits!

    Everyone has been supportive, and given great advice. All that's left now is for me to act on it....

    That's me cooked for today - lots to think about!

    Night all, CYT x

    Morning All

    I've caught up with some of the thread but not all so hugs to everyone whether you need them or not!

    I've hardly done anything this week so I've got loads to do really and Aunt Flo is here who won't help at all!

    Well I'm going to start now with a HHC.

    See you in a bit
