    Helen, of course we believe in you, you are a determined person and you are not going to let things set you back and beat you. Get yourself into that routine for work, earn the pennies. Remember that you are beautiful and a worthwhile person, no-one is better than you, no-one is worse, you are an individual with dreams and plans, and only you can fulfill them. Good luck Hunni !:A
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Personal I know, but I don't believe in being positive OR negative, be realistic. I think if you try and be too positive you're setting yourself up for a fall. So set goals that are achievable and believe in yourself :j

    That's an interesting point of view....And quite possibly the way that I should be looking at things....but I DO like to try and stay positive if I can....just doesn't always work....Although maybe there is a difference between being positive and being happy...

    Tomorrow I am off to Colchester Zoo....I cannot wait!!! Soooooo excited!!! :j :j :j I have saved £20 to pay for the Entrance Fee and then my Friend that I'm going with is going to treat me to Lunch so it will only cost me £20 in total...which isn't too bad....But I'm sooooooo excited...and I get to take more Pictures which I love to do....

    And then I'm on a Course Weekend this Weekend...which is going to make it difficult to Work but I will still manage to do some Work around Sleeping....but I'm looking forward to being on the Course....should be an interesting Weekend...and whenever I'm at College it reminds me what I'm aiming for in the long-term....

    Today I'm at Placement for my Course....Should be seeing 3 Clients which is a little tiring but good at the same time....so I'm looking forward to that...

    Will be Working from 8pm tonight until I've hit my Target for tonight....

    So all is looking good right now....

    I confess, I did a bad thing, I ate a whole Yorkie Bar ! Get that flogger out Helen ! :( In my defence, Its been a shirty day at work, and it was damage limitation, ie, If I didnt eat it, I would probably have sacked someone ! :P

    Ouch! Under the circumstances I think the Yorkie was the best idea!

    Aww Mara....sounds like you've had a hell of a day...I think a Yorkie Bar was in order....and it could have been a lot worse...you could have ordered Takeout and stuffed yourself and then the Syns would have been MUCH higher...as it was, you contained it with just one Yorkie Bar....so Well Done!! :beer:

    I've had a bit of a crappy day....Only one of my Clients turned up out of 4 Clients....so I didn't increase my Hours much that I'm trying to get for the Course....we have to do 550 Hours across 4 Years of one-to-one Counselling....so that feels like quite a lot...and I'm only 276 hours into it!! But I WILL get there....every Client I see is bringing me closer to it...

    Off to the Zoo in the morning....I'm soooooooooo excited!! I could barely sleep earlier on as it felt a little like Christmas Eve and waiting to open all my Presents in the morning....I know it sounds silly to be so excited over a day out...but I haven't had a proper day off or day out for AGES!! And it will be lovely to spend time with my Best Friend as well....

    Just got to Work for the next few hours....and then I'll be off on my Day Out!! :j :j :j

    So we'll see how Work goes tonight....I'm hoping it will be busy...
