Where on earth is everyone this morning???

Got some scary decisions to make today, and really need to find some motivation.

Weather is grey and rainy here today.

Hope everyone is well.

    Well it looks like me, fermi and a cactus!

    Just approach it one step at a time lizzie b.

    I have a very exciting day planned. Ironing, cleaning and looking at jobs. Might knock a few more tiles off the bathroom wall aswell.

    My day sounds pretty similar to yours Butti, making the house look presentable and ploughing through the ironing. Coupled with trying not to make my head explode.

    OH is coming home for lunch today though so at least I have that to look forward to.

  • Morning everyone,

    OH is still here, I love Iceland and not just for it's cheap chicken!

    I've submited my OU assignment and it's not my best that's for sure. I'll be happy with 40% which is a pass just!

    Not much happening at work today apart from reports and guess what more reports!

    Lizzie - you'll be fine with the decision making, promise!

    Still waiting to hear back about the job, I think I won't hear for a while as they're busy sorting out leave issues with the volcano and distributing payrises!

    I've given up my school placement today, I still want to teach and I know it's going to be a long hard slog, but I hope I've made the right decision in giving up this placement and I can find the presence of mind to figure out what to do next.
