Today's positives
- United won
- 'the man' picked up when I rang
Oh, sorry that work is not so good at the moment :grouphug:, have you completed your shiny new CV ?
However,
Yay for man stuff :j - just relax & enjoy it ... but NO MORE asking him out
Be fabulous, flirty & fun & let him do all the work ... that's what men are for ( when they're not carrying our shopping bags)

Do you know i've said it before but Lula talks a lot of sense, they aren't there just to carry bags tho.0

Ok, well there is the obvious
I'm thoroughly enoying my casual flirtation with work guy ... & I have to say that if I didnt have DD here I'd be such a tart :rotfl:

Still feeling quite down - and have been eating for England
Looks like my job is safe but a couple of friends look likely to be made redundant Not a nice atmosphere to be in!
Had a chat with 'the man' on Tuesday - not going anywhere but I think we can try to recover our friendship
Today's positives- Am having my nails done
- Lunch with a friend
- Get back on track with my diet
- Send my updated CV to an agency

Hiya Shoesy
So glad you had a chat with the manny. Sounds like it cleared that 'will we, won't we' thing.
Sorry you're still feeling low but enjoy your day and hopefully some beautifying and a gossipy lunch should lift your spirits for a bit.
Also glad you're not in danger of losing your job but having an atmospher sucks. We are having the same type thing at my work and it's really horrendous.

Big decision made - I am looking for a new job :eek: Have realised me and my current company just don't 'fit' I love my actual job but there is no progression, so no way to increase salary :mad: - so I have decided it's time to move on!
I have given myself 3 months :eek: So far I have sent my CV to 2 agencies, put it on Monster and applied for 2 jobs (neither of which I have much chance of getting but will give me an idea how my CV is recieved)
Strangely - now I have a plan/goal I feel better already My deadline is 1st December and I am hoping for a whole new Shoe Gal, am planning to get on track with other stuff too - diet, image, debt busting (think I'll abandon man hunting for while ) Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0 -
