    Hellooooooooooooo!

    Been out all morning on appointments. Have I said how much I like my job lately?


    :)

    All the time :rotfl:
    Never mind, it's good to enjoy your job.

    I couldn't get to sleep last night so that's probably a sign that it's time to get a job and that my feet were cold. Summer and winter duvet ended up on the bed!

    My life could be;
    1. In a job here
    2. In a part-time housing/regeneration job and doing a 1 yr masters in Newcastle
    3. In a job in Scotland
    4. In a part-time housing/regeneration job in Scotland and doing a 1 yr masters in Newcastle
    4. Homeless with no money

    I'm at a bit of a crossroads - need to fill the course paperwork in this weekend to provide me with a Plan B or a Plan D (numbers! letters!)

    Jo, Hope the class goes well. Remember to concentrate when your foot is on the pedal or you end up with a purse attached to your hand!

    Right have to get something to eat and then start ringing folk.

    Jo, that sounds good. I'm having an evening with my mum on Friday, going too see SATC2 and have something yummy to eat if I can think of something to make!

    Gonzo - I feel your Excel pain. It's been driving me nuts lately!

    Oooh! I really want to go and see SATC too! :j I think I will do Orange Wednesdays 2 for 1 next week - if I can convince hubby to go!

    Glasgow area. The man lives in Paisley. If I see something I like though I could equally do Edinburgh. Going up in mid July so going to do a bit of research and spend the Monday touting my CV round some of the Housing Associations.
