DreamerHelen's New Diary - "Ad Astra per Aspera"

DreamerHelen

Well I think it has FINALLY sunk in.....I CAN make my Target....and I DID make my Target last Week which I was really really pleased about....I worked my little butt off and I got there finally at about 9pm last night....

Sooooooo pleased with myself

I then treated myself to what I call a lie-in this morning until 4.30am.....and now I am awake to do the morning Shift and make a start on my new Target for this Week....

I've got a Weekend on the Course this coming Weekend which means I won't be able to do as much Work at the Weekend....It's also a 3-Day Weekend so I'll be doing Saturday, Sunday, Monday on the Course :eek: Which is going to play havoc with my earning Potential....but it's got to be done so I am just going to have to Plan Plan Plan and make sure I work during the Week this Week...

So I'm just going to go for it....

Thanks hun....I AM going for it....I made £40 in 5 hours this morning and I was really pleased with that....

I have this Year and another Year after this one....so the Course officially finishes in November 2014....however I won't be able to apply for Jobs until the following Year as I will have hours to do to complete the Course Requirements....most people will be in the same boat as it's almost impossible to do the hours required in the time you're given unless you give up Full Time Work and do this Course as if you were working Full Time....if that makes sense....

I'm at Therapy this Afternoon....am seeing a new Therapist and it's a Man!! I've never seen a Male Therapist before...and I'm really looking forward to it, if a bit nervous as well....

I'll be Working the overnight Shift tonight and then College tomorrow Evening....So it's all go this Week!! But that's good....Makes me feel like I'm getting somewhere if I'm busy...If that makes sense....

Right...gotta go grab a shower and sort myself out (that could take a while :rotfl:) ... Catch you all later xXx

Youre probably asleep, so Ill whisper this ..... Hope the afternoon went well, The therapist wasnt too rough on ya ! Or maybe you were rough on him .... Poor man probably had no idea what hit him !

Been another grgeous day here, 18C when i went out in the car at lunchtime, Had a picnic lunch with little brother, Its amazing how well we get on now we are all growed up, We used to beat 7 bells out of each other !

Work was hectic, I really need to take on more staff, but the board of directors are a bunch of miserable ..... bleepity bleeps and wont allow it. Never mind, Ill be able to retire in 15 years !
I love my job really, spent the afternoon reducing stock for a sale , must go look out for bargains, Xmas isnt so far away ! LOL :money:

Just realise that this is the last month that I make a payment on my car loan !! Woopeee ... Will be good to have the pennies stay in my account for a bit longer, I always seem to have too much month left at the end of my money. This will be us debt free apart from the mortgage ! Feels great !

So, Time to go for a float in the bath, I have a good book on the go right now, so will relax with that until I fall asleep and drop it in the water ! :rotfl:
Good Luck for a profitable night hunni xx

Morning Everyone....and what a beautiful morning it is!!

Therapy was GREAT yesterday....although I got hopelessly lost and ended up walking for 25 minutes in the wrong direction....But hey, at least it was exercise... :rotfl: Found it eventually and my new Therapist is brilliant...someone that I think I can get along with really well....

Tried to Work in the early hours this morning but it was absolutely dead dead dead....so decided to go back to bed and Work from 9am onwards....so I'll be doing 4 or 5 hours now....Got a £34 Target in mind....so I hope I can get there.

I've been realistic and put in my Plan that I'm not Working when I get back from the Course tonight....I always plan to Work and then always feel too tired...so I'm not even going to plan for it tonight....just come home, sleep and then Work during the day...I guess this Job is good because I can Work whenever I want to...so that's quite handy...just have to put the hours in.

I'm at College tonight so will be leaving by 4.30pm for that....am looking forward to it...should be a good night....

Apart from that I'm just Working today....and trying to stay positive...

Oooh things sound as though they are coming together - nice to hear you so positive!

Thanks hun....Things are definitely coming together....slowly but surely....

Did some Work this morning but it was really quiet again and I decided to Work a little when I get home tonight instead....at least it is better paid at Night....

Going to do some Flat Cleaning this Afternoon....washing up and putting out rubbish and just general sorting out....

Ahhhhh but I have lovely Venetian Blinds that cover up any grubby marks

I'm sleepy right now but I daren't get any sleep before College because I've only got 2 hours before I have to grab a Shower and get ready and if I oversleep I'm in big big trouble....So I'm just going to try and stay awake....Once I get moving I'll be fine I'm sure....

It's an absolutely beautiful day out there....will be nice to go out and get some of that Sunshine when I leave for College...

Morning Everyone....

Feeling really down this morning.....I'm behind with my Council Tax and I got a Summons yesterday morning....and that's just for 2013....I'm still behind with 2012 Council Tax and when I phoned to make an Arrangement they told me that I hadn't kept to any of the other arrangements so they couldn't really help me....

So the upshot is that to avoid the Bailiffs I have to make a Payment of £500 in the next 2 weeks....And I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to do that....

There isn't anyone that can help me....my Mum is at her limit of how much she can help me with finances....so I have to figure this out on my own....

I've worked out a Plan but it means doing about 100 hours each Week for the next few Weeks and that feels really scary....Although I guess I CAN do it....

So anyway....this morning I feel really down....Just wondering how I'm going to get through all this crappy Financial stuff....I don't want to take out another PayDay Loan as they have their own problems associated with that....I guess I just have to work my butt off and hope it will be okay....

Any Suggestions people? I don't want the Bailiffs here....
