    Glad to see that your week is going so well. xx

    Thank You hun.....I'm glad too....

    I have to be realistic though....I'm not going to get to £890 this Week as much as I want to....It simply hasn't been busy enough.....and of course I will Ill on Monday Night....

    So I'm pretty gutted about that....but have managed to tweak a little....And I'm still hoping to get almost twice what I got last Week....that would be AMAZING!!

    I'm going to absolutely slam the next few days....Get as little sleep as I can do....and just do my very best....

    £890 was never going to happen, i think you said before that £600 was as much ad was possible. Even £500 would be pretty amazing for the week. I reckon you could do that with the busiest times still to come.
    Keep plodding hun, youll get there. X
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Hey Helen, doing well this morning. Am really proud of you too. And your blog is getting pretty addictive. Everyone on here is just really keen for you to succeed which is lovely to see in itself. The power of human kindness and all that...

    Thanks Hun....I think £890 WAS a pretty tall order....I have been shooting for it but it's Thursday and I've only made £225....So yes, I'm aiming for about £600....I just hope it's busy across the Weekend!!

    I am so gutted that I can't make as much as I want....but £600 a Week is a pretty darn good Wage....

    Also, I just wanted to address something that I think Shovel Lad said in a past Message on this Thread - He asked if I was taking care of NI and Tax....I'm obviously self-employed....so far over the last 3 years I've not had to pay any Tax because my overall Profit is less than the Threshold where I have to pay...And yes, NI is in the pipeline to pay every month....So that's all sorted.....Just to put your minds at rest :)

    So, right now I'm on £220 for the Week so far....And another fiver to go and I'll get there....I can JUST ABOUT stretch to 11.30am if I HAVE to....so I really really want to get to £225 before I go to my Placement....

    Thanks Pesto, procedure is tomorrow, today is prep day :( . Just a check up really, there is a history of bowel cancer in my family and i apparently carry the marker gene too, they check me every three years ... Better safe eh .
    Enjoy the placement Helen .. I don't really understand what a placement involves in your course, but it will be a change from looking at your four walls.
    Good news about your bank account , shame you have to hand it all over to other people tho ! ! Never mind, one day soon .........
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Hey Hun....How is today going so far? Hope it's okay for you and not too disruptive to your day....I'm thinking of you hun xXx

    Well, with regards to the Placement, I'm Training to become a Psychotherapist but we have to have experience of being a Therapist.....so we get a Placement where we have a Client and we are the Therapists and we have Sessions with them every Week up to a certain number - Could be 12 Sessions, could be as many as 25....Plus I have Supervision once a Month on a Wednesday to make sure I'm not harming anyone emotionally or doing a bad Job....

    Hope that explains things a little better hun....

    I'm back by the way :D Just getting ready to Log On at 8pm for the duration....I'm pretty tired at this Point but I know I have to carry on tonight....especially as one of my Regulars said he might Call me and he's usually good for 2 or 3 hours...so let's hope he Calls...He might be able to keep me awake!!

    Anyway....that is that....
