    Oooh, I meant to say- the guy who I'll be working closely with in my new job was back yesterday. He was really pleased that I've got the job and started to get excited about how we'll divinde the work etc. Then in the aft at a meeting we said I would be moving jobs and a woman I really respect came up to me afterwards and said that from the first time she'd met me I stood out and she always wondered why I had undersold myself by doing my current job. Nice feedback to have! She also moaned about the nasty boss and how rubbish he is!

    Morning all

    Dusty - thanks for the cordial link. I might try that this year
    Rach - it's great to get that sort of compliment - well done you!
    Happy anniversary Quillion - and you just be a lady of leisure!

    We have rain this morning. But it's quite warm. I need to go food shopping today. I shall also tackle the master bedroom. It's not too bad so shouldn't take too long.

    Just wanted to say what a lovely bunch you all are! I don't very often stray from the pregnancy thread as there can be some horrible people about who twist everything you say!
    You guys are all lovely and I'm so glad I decided to join you :D

    I got into work early today so will leave early as well, this will allow me to fly BEFORE OH gets home. He got really annoyed with me last night because in the advert of BGT I got up and started tidying up random things! He'll be watching the footy tonight so I might stay upstairs and work on all my bedrooms to get another star or two!!!

    I can't believe I have managed 2 stars already - everyone is laughing at me cos they think I'm nesting!!!

    3 more days in work then off for 3 weeks :j
    My birthday in less than 2 weeks :j
    Baby will be become 'viable' in 6 days :j

    Mummyof5 -Happy Birthday
    Quillion - Happy Anniversery
    Toots - hope you arent suffering from doing too much yesterday
    SarahS - it takes a long time to come through doesn't it, I was wondering what had happened about your job.
    Triker - hugs for you, and for Rosepink
    Rach - sounds like you are on the up which is great.

    We have been away for a few days, and I have had a major attack of CBA/BD since. House is a pit, and I still can't be bothered - last week is the first week I didn't get every star :o. I must at least S&S and hoover today before we sink back into CHAOS.

    Supposed to be off with the boys this week but I have picked up two new projects - great to have some more work but terrible timing. Need to take them out this morning to compensate for the time they will be spending with the electric babysitter later :o.
