    Hi and thank you so much for your good luck wishes.

    All went really well, I have no experience (sp) what so ever but they knew this so I was just myself and enjoyed my very first interview ever !!! they have said that we will only hear from them if we are successful in about a week or so, whatever, they were very nice people. There were six of us today and they have been doing the interveiws all week. We will just have to wait and see.
    Hope you are all well and have a good weekend and thanks again Twink And AnW`sMum
    love and hugs

    Hello everyone and huge apologies for not being on the thread for a while, I've had huge problems with my PC and it's driving me mad! So, sorry everyone and I hope everyone is ok.
    I've been mad busy too, I was in london earlier on in the week for a meeting and am off to south Wales next week. What with it being financial year end, I'm having to work out budgets and targets for the coming year and being held accountable for all sorts of strange anomolies!
    I have though, booked some time off at Easter, but, to be honest, I'm frightened to death of stopping. I feel I've been coping so well (with all your help), so far and I think it may all catch up with me if I stop. My boss says I need to have time off otherwise I'll have burn out, and I supposes he's right, I'm just so scared. I may take Rosie off somewhere for a few days so that I don't just sit at home and think.
    I've made an appointment with the hospital where John was, with the consultant, the staff nurse and the patient liason officer. I'm not looking to apportion blame as to why John was discharged, just to not even make it home, but to answer question and to make sure others wont have to go through what I am going through.
    I've had an estate agent around today to value my house. I've done this so that I can update my will as we all know, you don't know what will happen and I don't want my children to have any added pressures if any thing, God forit, should happen to me. I need to make provision for Rosie as I don't have parents and obviously no John now.
    John and I had plans to move this year, and after the valuation today, it would still be possible for me to move if I wanted too. I will speak to all the children tomorrow and see how they feel.
    Well, I don't have plans for the weekend (aren't weekends awful without your love?), so I'll just see how it goes.
    AnW's Mum, I hope you are ok, thinking of you.
    Mandymoo, well done for getting through the interview, that's the worse part and you should be proud of yourself.
    Jbatista, I'm thinking of you at this time, look after yourself.
    Molly, I'm so glad you are hanging on in there.
    You are all such brave lovely people, have a lovely weekend, I'm yet again going to go back to deciding on a new PC........Grrrrr
    Hugs to all,
    Stormy

    Morning everyone :)

    Glad it went well mandymoo, hope you can get throught the waiting period this next week til you hear. I always find that the hardest. Sounds like you had a good day.

    Nice to see you bacl Stormy :) you make me feel out of breath with all the running round for work you have to do! Time off at Easter sounds good but I know what you mean about stopping for a break. When they sorted the hols at work I just told them to book school holidays off for me, I found out yesterday that they booked a week at Easter for me as well. We would have taken the caravan away for the first time this year (as we did last year) but mum has plans for me!!!! Think I mentioned the 3 room swap round well reckon that's me sorted! But we shall make time for a few days out all the same. If you do decide to go away Stormy and are headed in our direction at all and want to meet up then you would be most welcome.

    Right better go and get ready for swimming lesson for Alice and then bellringing competition for me this afternoon.

    Take care everyone and I'll catch up with you later.

    love n huggggggggggs
