  • it is such a relief not to be in my old job.


    Was thinking how I normally felt at this half term. exhausted and scared, overwhelmed.


    Don't get me wrong I was knackered yesterday! but it just isn't the same ground down to your soul misery I felt last year. It was in Feb that I went to the doctors and got diagnosed with anxiety, stress and depression. he wanted to sign me off work but I wouldn't. Did not want that on my medical records.


    I suppose the then bf got me through that period - not that he exactly knew. Everything happens for a reason right? ;)




    In other news the school asked me to apply for my job - am on a temp contract right now.


    I have decided not to. Bit of a risk. but playing safe for the last 7 years hasn't got me very far. So I shall go back to temp work and supply work. I want freedom and choice. It might be tough moneywise but only if I am stupid. (always possible!)


    This decision leads me to my next decision.


    I should go for a longer bt - mine runs out in October.


    and that really the 650 for the car insurance and my current debt of 4400 need to be bunged together on a new card. probably my Tesco's card.


    we shall see.

  • It will be much easier to be accepted for a BT while you are working/have worked in one place a wee while. For that reason I'd apply now/soon. Market leaders are offering 31 months 0% I believe which will buy you lots of time. Xx

    Yep that was my thought also.

    I think I will pay of the car insurance this month and move the balance to my Tesco's card if I can.

    Today was a bust! Was trying to rehome a fish I have which is far too big for the tank or at least will be once he grows. I drove which I hated for 40 minutes, got there to discover that their tank was smaller than mine!


    Was so furious. no one cares about fish. They must the most disposable pet ever. I know they aren't cute and fluffy but if rabbits or dogs suffered the things fish suffered people would be horrified.


    So needless to say the fish came home again.


    No clue what to do with it.


    moneywise aside from the wasted petrol I don't think I spent anything. Although am looking for a REALLY big fish tank on e bay!!

    Animals are my big weakness, am daft about them, should have had kids! wouldn't have time then! My real life friends think I am nuts.


    anyhow today's conundrum. There is a smell in the house *looks at the dogs* hmm don't think so *looks at guinea pigs* no not quite.


    It sort of smells like a homeless person on the bus. I don't think I have one of those.


    very puzzling.


    must investigate.


    this week I REALLY could make some inroads to my goals.


    List


    1. smell
    2. washing
    3. hoovering
    4. move boxes out from under bed.
    5. meet friend for window shopping
    6. empty wardrobe.


    must take some meat out of the freezer. got potatoes in the fridge. and veg to do in the microwave.


    ok. should not sit here watching The Wright Stuff.


    must get on!

    Wet towel left somewhere?
    Something gone down the back of bin rather than in it?
    Something spilt and forgot to mop up?

    Had a lovely day :)


    did hoover and did one load of washing, went out with my friend and it was loads of fun:)


    I have two chalk paint samples:) and many plans.


    dinner was very nice and I cooked it! The dogs may have got some left overs as my portions are nuts but I won't make a habit of it.


    oh dinner was Chicken and bacon, mashed potato, veg and loads of butter.


    am a bit worried about my health. I get so tired so quickly. came in at about 6 and slept for almost two hours, felt awful out. weak and achy.


    Part of me thinks I might be run down or maybe I am really unfit? OR maybe I am ill in some way.


    was meant to go to the docs this week, but my doctor isn't there. The one with appointments available is the one who misdiagnosed my skin cancer (which I STILL need an operation for) as acne.


    It just hit me today, my friend bought paint - 3 small tins she is 10 yrs older than me and was walking seriously faster then me! and I always wanted to sit down!! think I might be getting a sore throat - so am probably just ill normally!

    They always want me to have blood tests and I am rubbish with needles.

    any how this post has taken ages to write! So long that in that time I have watched an episode of Criminal Minds and am now watching Extreme Hoarding on Channel 5.

    Have a greed to do 2 lots of tutoring tomorrow so that is good.

    am watching that hoarding programme. hmmm. can see how it happens. Currently I have work every where!
