    so sorry to hear about poor Beechie, that must be horrible to see your pet in so much pain....:(. good luck with the interview. I gather that garnier caffeine stuff is good for bags under the eyes. Or if you are really desparate lanacane REALLY sparingly applied...

    thanks for your reply. you say what i think, but everyone else seems to think it is far too complicated.....

    Sorry I've dropped in too late to wish you good luck for today. I do hope it went well for you and you knocked 'em dead. Also hoping that you arrive home to hear that Beechie's condition is improving.

    Wow...what a rollercoaster :rotfl::rotfl:

    Up at 4am...having for the first time since the breakdown" 3 years ago "sweated the bed".......it was soaking....and therefore quite frightening :eek:

    Interview went well I think (it was short...but they are inviting me back to meet the staff ....think that might say something???? :rotfl:)...and they didn;t throw out my salary request :D

    Also they seem very happy to go for my proposal of 3 days a week "try me out" 'til March to start off with so I can complete my current contracts. :T:T

    Popped in to see Beechie on way back...he is [STRIKE]one high[/STRIKE] feeling much better on his opiate pain meds :D

    There is no more gas in his guts so hopefully this "episode" is now over the acute phase and he should be home by the weekend :j

    Got home to find an email offering me the census co=ordinator job...which income wise is 350% less than the interview job :o...hmmm big decision...which one do I take :rotfl::rotfl:

    Guess I'm feeling a "tad better" tonite.
