Morning everyone,

1 AFD for me for December please.

Will be AF tonight too, as I have my carpy supermarket "chain gang" shift, LOL! Fortunately, (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it) tonight is my last shift there. I have hated it so much, I am inwardly delighted not to have to go back next week, however money-wise it is going to be a problem if I can't find anything else.

I was on a temporary contract which expires tonight and they aren't renewing it, so I have no part time job come midnight. Hope I can find something else in the next month or 2..... time will tell.

Got serious essay writing this weekend, although it's my last essay for the year, so once it is done, I can leap for joy and forget about academic work for a while and just concentrate on my placement (with a Community Nurse - I LOVE it!).

Me-wise, feeling pretty down in general. Divorce proceedings all filed now, I have precious little money, no social life, I am very tired, I can't see my family at Xmas and obviously can't see my ex's family as she will be with them, I have essay pressures and for some reason I have disappeared from the attendance list for our university Xmas party, so I can't go as the venue is now fully booked. No idea how that happened as I was on the list originally, but I was really looking forward to going and now I can't.

So because I am generally low, I've blown that up out of all proportion and got upset about it! Typical me! It is annoying though, as I don't go out very often and I was really excited about it.

A fitting end to a sh*tty year??? Indeed it is! :mad:

Anyway, whinge whinge and moan moan - sorry folks. I shall slink off and get ready for placement....................:p

Hugs,
Caz

That`s a real shame about your university xmas "do". It will be their loss that you are not there.

Morning everyone.

You're doing well Sim, looks like 2011 could be a good year for you!:D

Well done Miss P, a good start to Dec for you.

Hope you're ok Jo, the wagon is still there, jump back on when you're ready. Getting another AF day done might cheer you up a little. Take care.:)

Cazza, you're not having a lot of luck at the moment, but at least your studies sound like they're coming along well. Roll on 2011 eh?

1 AF for me please Shaggy & Pen (thanks for the challenge Pen, when the bells rang, I went to the gym and ran for 6 miles instead - double bubble!)

Take care all.

And so say all of us!!!! You'll feel better when you've got your essay out of the way, great sense of acheivement. And your placement sounds really interesting and rewarding too. Perhaps you should go round to Toby carvery and get stuffed!

Well done mark for running away from the bells! Activity is always best.

Sorry to hear you're still feeling a bit under the weather MissP, but congratulations to you and Pen on this week's challenge (and to me of course:)).

:Tsim, you're really are living up to your user name. Great news about the work and generally getting your life in order.

Sorry to hear things aren't going well jo, perhaps that nasty episode left you more shaken than you thought. Or maybe it's just carp in general.

Anyone seen RN, lately? (If you're lurking show your face). I know he said he had some RL issues.

Post has turned out a bit Budgiesque. Anyone heard from the lovely lady of our other furry friend HB?

Hope everyone is having a good day. I like Fridays:D
