    Thanks Pippi, my brain has gone to sleep. I have three sections I need to write: profile, key achievements and skills. I know I need to go over the job spec, reply to what they want and put the replies into those categories. Veeeryyy tired, can't concentrate.

    I might print the stuff out and go to sleep and then get up early to do it. Will shoot it over to you in the morning.

    Even too tired for x stitching :eek:

    Goodness me. This is probably the best CV ever, my BF proofread it, Pippi proofread it and now one of the Matrix ladies has taken her red marker on it and I am pretty much rewriting it now. I am quite tempted just to send it off but now it is such a mess after all the moving around and cutting and pasting so I might just hold my horses and get it done properly. And the thing is that I already work there so they already know me.

    I am now officially on holiday so as soon as the CV is gone I shall flop. DD going to see her dad tomorrow meaning I get to go to my acupuncture treatment. I have no ambitious plans for tomorrow as I know now how tired the treatment makes me.

    OMG I just got an email from the solicitor, she wants more money. I so need this promotion to be able to afford her.

    Given up on CV, will call the pro tomorrow, head hurts, logging off and crashing...

    Oh GP today said that one solution for my head trouble could be beta blockers :eek: (off to google them...)

    I have had good advise today re CV, just need to put it in good use.

    Head is better but still not quite right.

    Acupuncture great but have left me very drowsy.

    I think I am going to allow myself a quiet evening of cross stitch and worry about job applications tomorros. BF will be here so can bounce off ideas from him as well.

    Oh and BF has a job interview, problem is that we are going away on Tuesday so hopefully he can call on Monday and ask if they would be happy to reschedule it until we are back.

    Can you imagine if we both get these new jobs :j then after my credit record clears we would be in a brilliant position to apply for a mortgage.
