    I am having an excellent day today and am really getting into this universe providing solutions stuff :T

    There are some really kind people who have really helped me find the direction I need to head in so thanks to all of them :beer:
    I am sitting back, waiting and watching because it is fate.

    Speak soon xx

    Hi Kittie!

    I shall subscribe to read your journey as I am trying to calculate a 5 year plan too! :D

    Hopefully you can inspire me as I am studying, looking to find a nice house although not build mine! :o

    Hey lilmissmup welcome, feel free to shout up whenever you want :)

    What are you studying btw? I'm doing an Open degree with the OU and then hoping to do a Masters in something like environmental sustainability or social policy even.

    I am doing an evening course level 3 BTEC in Animal Management but looking to try do a foundation degree in that or something similar within next few years too.....as well as moving house and having a baby (or trying for one!).

    I will be starting a new diary over here for 2013 but looking to get my username changed first, waiting to here back from admins.

    That sounds interesting lilmiss, is that larger animals you are learning about?

    Re the baby, good luck with the trying :D, my baby days are behind me thank goodness and besides the husband would hit the roof if I got pg :eek:
    Looking forward to reading your diary of successful events :T

    Its all aspects of animals, welfare, vet care, biology etc in all animals big and small.

    My dream is to be a zookeeper but realistically anything with animals would be good!

    Been in the motor industry for 10 years mainly doing customer services and sick of it now!

    Wages are pants too but working with animals will be even less money but I am only 28 so want to not spend the next 50 years hating my work!

    I bet you have to learn loads of things about each animal. A complete change to the motor sc dept though eh :)

    Good luck with this, it's great to have dreams to follow.

    Oo-oo-oo I'm getting really impatient for NYD to be here. It's the start of my 5 year journey - looking forward to where that will take me.

    I shall be paying for my next OU course later and once I've completed that one I can claim the HNC (Open) which is a little goal to complete on my way.

    I have also been having little 'episodes' I shall call them, where I have little flashes or thoughts coming into my head. I suddenly had a warning from somewhere which said not everyone is as they seem and I have journo in mind for some reason.

    I will have to see what unfolds with this one :(

    Well my day just gets better and better and if it improves any further then I shall simply burst!

    I had a free delivery code sent to me by Tesco so have bought a little over the required £40 spend which saves me the job of visiting them.

    More peeps seem to want to join in the take your lunch to work thread and I thank each and every one of them for their fantastic contributions. I don't mind running it as it is a community thread for the good of everyone - I do not have ego issues :D

    Lastly and most importantly of all my lovely husband :love: has said that he will give me a certain sum of money each week which could well see my projected £5000 savings figure more than double :j eeek I'm sooo excited.

    Lovely, lovely. Life just couldn't get much better :T

    Yippee it's New Year's Eve :j

    Can't wait for 2013 to start.

    Had another funny thought. For some reason I am seeing someone sat around a round table which has 4 straight backed-chairs. They are reading papers, not a newspaper but like a script or draft of something associated with a story.

    Hoping this will stop soon. Never mind whatever it is will come out soon. I shall sit back and let events unfold :D

    Will drop by laters :)
