  • Morning everyone!

    Boyf is off college today, he woke up not wanting to do anything and is really distressed, I feel really helpless because it's a family thing and there is nothing I can do to help him other than make cups of tea. It really hits him hard sometimes that he's so far from home.

    Anyway, enough of that. I have a time for a telephone interview on Friday, and some little challenges to do for another possible job in Germany, so fingers crossed for those. Going to get started once I've done my exam tomorrow.

    Welcome to the newbies - Keys sweetie I just saw your post above mine, don't aim too high at first, babysteps is the important part! Otherwise you'll run out of steam. Our houses don't get in a mess in one day, we can't expect to fix them in one day either! Try some half hour challenges rather than flying all day.

    Hugs and love to everyone, especially poorlies and those with BD's prowling at the door.
    Going to update my list
