    Right, I now know what the exhausts are so will be turbolisting if have the energy tomorrow night or on Tuesday to list tues night. I actually listed the phone on ebay now - hurray!! :D Sold another voucher as well. Think I'll sell my money off vouchers as I don't really like to spend over £60 at tescos - although maybe i'll keep one for 2 weeks time and sell the other 2.

    Hmmm

    Hi all! :D

    Well, sold another book on Amazon tonight so will be sending that tomorrow. Also going to take the kids to storytime at the library and trying to sort out the pigsty that is my house. I am feeling a little down at the moment (yes, again!!) as I feel like i'm continuing to bash my head against a brick wall with OH both in relationship terms and in terms of the money. All the money I am raising doesn't actually seem to be getting me anywhere - he is still buying his booze - although has 2 nights off a week now so has improved a little. Started telling me off again though - this morning it was for feeding the fish, yesterday for leaving the camera plugged into the computer !!!!!!. Life's too short.

    Might go to bed shortly - so tired! Will list those exhausts tomorrow and try to list the clothes and other items so that I can just get rid! :)

    Hope all are having a good day.

    hi Sea

    Sorry to hear you are feeling so down - not surprising with OH so unsupportive. I hope you have a good night's sleep and a good time with the children tomorrow.

    Have you heard any news about your promotion at the school yet?

    Hi Sea, sorry to hear that things don't seem to be getting much better. Hope an early night for you helps things in the morning.

    I'm getting an early one too I think, and likewise I will be tackling the house in the morning - my first client has cancelled, so I have no excuse really....

    Sleep well x

    Hi :)

    YEs, I know I'm going full time, but as I feel sooo rubbish at the mo I really don't know if I can get my threshold application form in by next week as tht's the deadline for my head. I would love to, but the application form needs full proper and careful attention and I just don't know if I can do it at the mo! My head seems full of everything and I am just procrastinating about it all, especially the form. My wages will increase anyway through going full time, but the threshold would be another increase.

    Just need to get out of this trough really - not sure how to do it though.:o

    Oh sea, i haven't got a single word of advice to give you but want to send loads of sympathy. I know what it's like to have an urgent and important task and just not be able to do it. Miserable.

    Could you harness the resources of this wonderful site to get the form done? Post the questions somewhere (jobseeking board maybe?) and get suggestions on the various points to make and buzzwords to mention? I got good help with a resignation letter there some time ago.

    Sorry if this is an inappropriate suggestion - I don't know anything about thresholds and have the greatest admiration for teachers.

    Thanks hon - that's good advice. really I just need to get down to it - apparantly it should only take 3-4 hours ish but I also need to find all the evidence for it and since i came from a school that wasn't so good at record keeping (we were more concerned with keeping the kids in the classroom!). I should get my !!!! in gear - it's worth a few thousand!!!
