    I am driving myself mad. wasted today. I always do this in the holidays. I wish I'd booked time off my other job instead of picking up extra shifts.

    But you can't put a wish bone where your back bone should be.

    see you all about 8 when I finish, come home and eat pancakes

    and then I WILL MAKE A PLAN for Lent.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Hello :wave:. I've been revising for a bit but it's not going well. Sigh. Never mind I made a bit of an effort. My control accounts don't match my creditors/debtors lists. Grr. I will have to go through it all to find the mistake - I think it can wait until tomorrow though.
    Pancakes tonight -OH is making them I think.
    Oh and in semi exciting news to everyone I got a new job. :T I've only been working 3 weeks and now it's half term. Only 15 hours a week though.

    I'm debating whether to get the knitting machine out and see if i can make some stuff but i haven't used it for 12+ years so can't remember how to cast on :(

    Just wondering if having some knitted stuff on my craft table as well as the jewellery may generate a bit more income?
