    Good luck Lynz, gosh you sound so busy and motivated. Let us all know how the interview goes on Friday - I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you. Dont be over doing it though - your health is so much more important. All the best OOPS

    Gosh Lynz - you have so much going on! I'm sorry to hear that the work situation is not resolved and that its got to the point of resigning, I really hope you find something decent, even if its just something to get back into work and keep the money ticking over!

    I think only do another SOA if you feel it'll help. When I've been in 'spend absolutely as little as possible' mode before I haven't done an SOA as its usually very tight and I didn't find dividing up the budget really helped - just getting into tightwad mentality!!!

    Glad you've had a productive day, will keep my fingers crossed for your job interview on friday! :T

    Just focus on one thing at a time and you'll definitely get there!

    Great to see you back fighting and kicking! As usual, you've motivated me to get off my butt and sort myself out! I've got 5 assignments to hand in tonight (only done 3 of them, oops!) and then i'm going to give myself an overhaul Lynz style! Time to dust off those cobwebs and sort money, sort the house, sort me! Thanks for the motivation!

    Business is really great despite not being able to work much in December as my five year old broke his collar bone and wasn't allowed to go to school. Fully booked up for Jan and half of Feb so very pleased. I'm half way through this sweedish massage course and can't wait for it to end as we've had 5 different tutors in 12 weeks.

    I'm going to get all these assignments done for next Tuesday and then I'm going to change a lot of things! Hope you're nearly through with your jobs for today though it was quite some list!
