    Hi all!

    I am ok, thanks Cath :D.. Just busy juggling with daily life, and I am putting in a lot of hours into searching for a new job, meeting recruitment agencies.. All that on top of a busy day does not leave much space for anything else..

    Things are starting to move in the right direction work search wise.. Hopefully something good will come up soon..;)

    I am off to see War Horse at the cinema tomorrow afternoon with a friend..

    I still need to have a serious go at the pile of paperwork in the home office, and also sort out the books/DVD's and old laptop to raise more funds..:o

    Hope everybody is well, and excited because today is the last day of the working week! Woohoo! :j

    Cheers

    Evening all..:j

    Hope everybody is ok?

    I have a job interview tomorrow.. I need to work on it tonight.. I don't really fancy the job, mainly due to the huge commute it would entail.. However in the situation I am in, I can't overlook it.. I still have a mortgage to pay & bills.. The good thing is I won't be in work at all tomorrow.. Lie in in the morning and afternoon to myself (that is if I don't get stuck in stupid traffic)..
    The recruitment agencies are lately being much more proactive than in the last few months.. Looks like the job market is moving in the right direction.. It's still tough but am getting there.. I have just about 7 weeks to find a job..

    I think it was Tilly that praised gardening lately on her diary.. I would love a small greenhouse.. I only want a few plants like parsley, basil, chives, maybe small tomatoes, peppers, chillies.. My birthday is coming up soon so I might ask for that.. Any suggestions & tips gratefully received :D

    Thai curry is on the menu tonight.. All prepared, so just need warming up :p

    Money wise, it will be clearer at the end of the week after payday..

    Cheers

    Good luck for tomorrow Froggy :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • Hi Froggy, :jGOOD LUCK :j for tomorrow. Will be thinking of you and sending loads of positive vibes. You could always Rent a Room if the commute is too much - not sure whether Elvis would like that though x

    On the gardening front, I will post a few suggestions for you to think about, in a few days.

    Best wishes Tilly x

    Good luck again! Have you thought about the train if you don't like the journey?
  • Hope you get the job mate!
