Yep, looking forward to finishing work

Just realised that I will have a heap of annual leave when I return from mat leave so wondering if I should say I will go back on a 4 day week (and take 1 day off per week til the end of my contract Jan 2011) or will I go back to a 3 day week and take 1 day off per week so I only have to do 2 days. Considering the project was a full-time job up until mat leave I think I might be better to do the 4/3 day option. Anyone got any ideas?

I did the day off a week think with both my kids - helped me a lot but wasn't popular with my boss- others just tag it on to the end of the maternity leave

good news here in the starnac household. DH got the job he interviewed for yesterday. it's the job he really wanted and we can really start busting the debts and saving for a deposit now with the extra wage coming in. we are so pleased. :j

Fantastic news - I didn't know you went to church - we do too. Someone from mse sent me a pm yesterday saying they were praying for me which is nice!

Ruddy woman at the gym hasnt emailed me back which is annoying....

keep going with the gym thing - if that fails report them to the lunchtime money programme or local newspaper - see if that gets results

Morning ladies!

Unfortunately don't have a very good mobile reception at the flat and dongle dind't work too well, couldn't do my scratchies as it wouldn't load the last page, was really slow as well. I'll try it tonight again in my room by the window, but not holding much hope. 60p at least lost in scratchie money...:(

Dinner was nice and flatmate wasn't in, so had the place to myself and bf. He's not too fond of cats, but was coping ok. Sometimes he's bit too polite though...if that's possible.

hope you manage to get your internet access sorted - I wouldn't survive without mine now!

It is bit annoying. She can't seem to make up her mind about sky/virgin... I'll try to make her feel bad about it the next time I see her saying my line manager lent me a dongle but even that's not working...Just get a move on woman!

I don't want to missing out on my scratchies as my amazon books will be still off-line till the weekend, I need some money coming in, how ever small it is. Plus I have loads to put on ebay which I can't obviously do atm.

that's really nice of them. yes we go to church too. it is my sanity. with everything else that's gone on church is the one thing i can rely on. i don't think i could have coped without it.

DD isn't well today. she was up most of the night being sick. she's asleep at the moment and hopefully she'll feel better later on.

waves to everyone

tirlittan

Waves back!

starnac

hi tirl, great news on the move.

tirlittan

Thanks starnac.
It's been lovely and peaceful so far. Not all things are still sorted and I think it might take up to a month to get everything right, but I like the place. I'm hoping it'll only be for a year though...

Hope DD feels better when she wakes up.
