Hi guys!!!

Im SO sorry I havent been posting this week!!! This site stopped working at work and I've barely been at home to log on!

thanks so much for all the amazing messages Im really touched! It's been a brilliant week!

There was a drama getting my results last Thursday as the email didnt come through but my friends got theirs so I worked myself up into a state and finally managed to log online and find my result, unfortunatley this was at work and I immediatley burst into tears and sobbed my heart out at my desk (open plan office, 70 people nearby)!

Lots of hugs and kisses ensued and I spent the entire day in a daze with the biggest grin on my face ever! We all hit the pub in the evening and it was very MSE and everyone just plyed me with booze all night, we went dancing in Chelsea and everyone slept over at my colleagues house as no one could manage to get home! (I got the bed! SCORE!)

So pleased I had booked the Friday off to sleep off the hang over.

My parents were in London for the weekend and we did nice things including Hampton Court Palace, they went to see Warhorse (and loved it!) and I took them to the rugby club to meet my friends. When we went for drinks after dinner we bumped into D, that guy I was seeing recently which was a bit awkward as I was with Mum and Dad but they went to the bar and I had a chat with him which was nice.

This week at work has been SO busy, havent had time to go horse riding or boxing, just been working hard. I do enjoy my job and definitley don't want to change it but am getting so frustrated with the amount of sh*te I uncover everytime I look into something, I don't have any time to do my daily tasks because I'm always correcting my predecesors errors as she was LAZY and didnt do anything!

I had an email from CIMA just now, I am a full member and can use the letters after my name and my certificate is in the post! I can't wait to get it, going to get it framed and hang it on the wall. I'm still so pleased with finishing but it almost doesn't feel real yet that I am done! I think it will hit me when my friends at work have exams and I don't.

The day I got my results my boss spoke to management and my payrise is being discussed with HR I could get it this or next payday so I still may two more months to be skint! She also warned me that the budget for next year is awful so I ought not to expect to top range of what I have been told. We will wait and see!

Tonight I'm going to a comedy show, my friend had two spare tickets so me and my flatmate are joining him and I'm not going to drink as I'm riding in the morning - two horses, they're all back from their holidays so there's more horses than people!

Other wise a quiet weekend planned and I plan to tidy and do my spreadsheet and budget for the month. I need to stop celebrating and get back on the MSE wagon or I really will run out of money.

Right, back to work!

Will update you on the debt numbers over the weekend!

We will let you off for not posting - just this once, mind you. The celebrations sound fab, all the more as you actually got a bed to sleep in later!

Thank you! I like that, could be the name of the next diary... what do you think? Is it time for a new diary? Maybe once I get the payrise? I feel bad creating a new one, I like this one - is that cheating on my diary???
