    Very well done 115k :T I do hope the counselling is going well for you sweetheart? Big hugs (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Ok just a quick post, I have realised that I did not log off when I posted on Sunday :eek: Sorry if anyone thought I was being rude :o Of course I wasn't. I blame Mr Budgie and these computer lessons :D

    But Eselt good to hear from you sweetheart and I do hope that you can post more now? Hugs (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Budgie has been feeling invisible at work :( Long story but I realise its not the job I want to keep doing? Sensible Budgie knows she has no other option while Mr Budgie is still out of work. But my long term plan is to change my career path.

    It may sound corney but Budgie wants to do a job role where she makes a difference:)

    In my previous job I used to literally bounce to work, go in on my days off and loved it, then my lovely boss left after 4 years and I inherited a muppet. Stuck him for a further 2 years and then left.

    I have been in my current job for the past 7 years and I have gone through 4 managers already :eek: A fifth is on the cards too .................

    As you can probably tell, I do tend to stick with what I know. But I have an increased feeling that I need to change.

    In that note has NTC not been about again?

    Love n hugs guys and please take care
    God Bless

    Evening all. Came across this series of books tonight. Thought may be useful for Sea, Molly etc following on from the conversation we had the other night. I think there is one for the first 3 years.

    :wave: to Budgie, Eselt and everyone else. Elentan, I have nothing useful to add to the wise words you've received today but I do feel for you.

    I'm doing well, very limited bell-ringing tonight.

    2 AF for October please Shaggy and

    2 for the challenge Pen

    P.S. Have booked a short holiday for next week and another in November so will be struggling to meet target:o but I'll be doing my best and keeping drinking to moderate amounts.

    P.P.S. I hope you managed something fun today marru, no slacking!

    Another AF night for me. Did the ironing whilst watching 'the Full Monty' so that kept me occupied
    Trying to keep in budget.

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.
