    eeek so many replies!


    And I am going out early, for New Years so no time to answer properly. I think Mum is a bit disappointed - I never go out and actually did want to stay in but best mate who split up with BF a few weeks ago has planned a night - her and her fella are back together but she still wants to go out. She is a very good friend and I am lucky to have her. and I will be home early.


    Mum is so tired she is already asleep on the sofa.


    I will be back with new year plans and maybe a new dairy. Well definitely. This is the first time I have kept one diary for a whole year. am fairly impressed.


    will be back, love to you all XXXXXXXXXXXX

    I had a decent night's sleep. have hurt back again so woke up in agony.


    Not wishing to seem overdramatic but I was so stressed last night I wonder if I did it in my sleep!


    Anyhow........the meeting. It went well. I was totally honest, bit of a risk but I happen to like this manager, he isn't a !!!!!! like the others - well ok that is horribly unfair. Everyone is under such a huge pressure it is amazing they still show up to work. And they all operate the blame game so it is a bit who can you trust oh no one....


    So yeah, he allayed some fears, confirmed my suspicions and generally made me aware of few things.


    I left feeling WAY better.

    Laptop over heated. I really need to get to grips with the new laptop but I love this one so much! It is set up so well.


    So plan for this weekend.....


    Up early, return clothes, supermarket shopping and then back here to declutter and move furniture around.


    Sunday will be dedicated to paperwork and sorting the bloody car insurance. I shall be back for advice.
