    it's my last day working as a temp at the council. I'll not have the temptation to go spending in the shops so that's a good thing!!!

    Have a good day Katsu :)

    I'm sooo sleeeeepy this morning. Just getting through a quiet-ish day at work, then off to B&Q to choose paint for the bedroom ready for another weekend of painting.

    good morning

    I'm a happy chappy :) I looked at the jeans (size 14) this morning, decided to try them on, THEY FIT!!!!!!!!!!! WLOOOHHHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!, Next door Neighbour lent me some clothes this morning, cause she doesn't think that I will be in a 14 for long enough, to warrant buying a new wardrobe full.

    The kitten had a bad belly through the night so now have a right mess to clean up :( Luckily its only in the kitchen :)

    Need to seriously start making jewellery today too as the big cheese is fast approaching :) and i do not have enough jewellery at all.

    Ink for printer finally came today so now I can finish Nathans cards off too, ready for the big cheese.

    Escaped the morning job and now upstairs at work. I need out of my morning job so much.

    Decided to take the plunge and enrol on a course. Level 1 Computerised Book Keeping. I invigilated the level 3 and found it all incomprehensible but fascinating and think the way things are these days any additional qualifications that you can maybe get a job out of are helpful. Because my WTC stopped in April I can't get the concessionary fee and because they've changed the low income learner support threshold to before tax and not after I can't get the course paid for. I do get 20% staff discount and it's still money that I don't really have, but I really want to do it. It's 17 weeks and cost me £140 which is hugely cheaper than private providers.
