    Hugs for you DB.

    Checking in for the last challenge day and I confess to having a couple of slugs of DH's beer , almost before I thought about it.

    So maybe 3 and a half days?
    Trying to keep in budget.

    Hi all.

    Hope you're all well.

    I have my interview tomorrow, at 11am, for the taxi job :)

    Even though the boss said (on Tuesday, when I called about the job), that it'll "just be a chat about the driving", I'm still a bit nervous - ridiculous!

    My stress lies with the fact that my CV is a mess / heavily - edited, due to my mad drunken lifestyle, these past 10 years.. hence, I won't be taking my CV..

    Neither the boss, nor I, even mentioned a CV, as I think it would be a little 'OTT', for just a taxi driving job!

    He just asked me to take my driving license.

    So, that's what I'll do - Keep It Simple and all that :)

    Tomorrow, I'll have some money, and I'm feeling a bit flat as it is, so I know that I'll be tempted to go for 'a drink'..

    A plan is required!

    Cheers,

    Sim x

    I'm planning to go and sign up at the Gym, tomorrow afternoon, or go for a swim instead, for more of a natural high!
