    Out of 220 pages (had a slight recalculation from last week!) I have to change 3 words. Yes, 3 words. Then it will all be signed off and I can submit it.

    Woooo hooo!!!

    I have opened the bar, and the drinks are on me, ladies!!

    Thank you so much for your positive vibes for the meeting. They helped HUGELY! I got told off a little for not going through my boss for one thing, and instead, I went over her head to my bosses boss. I know I should have talked to her first, but I only went to the person above her because I know she was so incredibly stressed about stuff going on in the office and I didn't want to add to her load. Besides, I got a quick answer from my bosses boss. :o

    So, I need to make my little amendment, run everything off again (there goes another poor little tree!), get it all signed (which my boss has agreed to do) and then I can get it copied, bound and submitted.

    WOOHOO well done crickett :)

    Good morning

    Sun is lovely here, WM been on 2 loads on the line drying, just waiting for dishwasher to finish, then I have 3 black bagsof next doors to wash :) their machine has broken again :(.

    Also next door has had a wardrobe clearance, and has 5 black bags I can go through to see if there is anything suitable for sewing, before it goes to the charity shop :)

    Cleaned through,I'm dressed, just catching up on here, emails etc, then it's sewing :) doing quite well this week, sat in the shop yesterday and made a few peices of jewellery.

    Great news, Crickett. :T:T:T:T:T:T

    I can't help wondering if the 3 word change was requested to justify your boss's existence? :rotfl:
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?
