Sounds promising

Just giggled at some typo's in my previous posts - how did you manage not to correct them Caz?

Right. Plan of action. The job is going to change at some point so more than likely it will be this time next year which is the sensible option given the training etc needed for the other team to take on my work and the annual cycle that we follow.

So next month I am going on this 2 day course which is apparently great and is the start of the next option in my working life. Secondly, the exam that I failed I am going to re-sit, hopefully in October. I picked October as it gives me time to revise the area I failed in (which I know) and time to get organised and definitely pass it. Once the SHTF next year, hopefully I will be in a good position to move into another role, hopefully in the same company.

Ok who stole the weekend!? We have had a great time but I seriously cannot believe it's Monday morning and I'm back at work!

DD had a fabulous little ride on the pony. Something clicked and they have teamed up and it's lovely to see

We went ge0caching for the first time this year, so that may be the start of it all again. I enjoy it and it gets us all out. Nice picnic too. We had Sunday lunch out meaning I got away with not cooking :T

The weekend went that quick that I was literally drying the school uniform overnight infront of the woodburner! Everyone has on what they should have this morning, but yet again it was a skin of the teeth job!

I'm starting my revising today which will take me right through to October when they exam will be, I've been given the go ahead to reschedule and work are paying for it. :A I know I will pass this time and then I can get my CV updated.

Grocery wise I've overspent by circa £25 however that's still lower than average for a family of 4 so I'm pleased. Pay day on Friday meaning this week will also be spent preparing for that. It will also be the last pay I have until we go on holiday - that's flying round.

Tea this week will be chicken and veg/rice type dishes as we need to shift a few pounds to allow for and make way for the holiday. I've found a nice looking WW chicken dish so I'll see how much time that will take.

Yard tonight then a bit of knitting again to get Mam's scarf finished. I need to pick DS's scarf back up as that is a nightmare that one and it won't be anywhere near done for winter if I don't start soon! I thought it was going to be easy too, how wrong I was!:rotfl:

Productive morning. I've managed to get a couple of hours revision done on the topic that I did poorly on for the October exam.

I've also started the ball rolling to get the reschedule put through (nothing is ever straigth forward in this place, red tape and politics).

I have had a salad for lunch which I made this morning and I feel full so let's see if that lasts longer than an hour.

To do today:

Check when MOT is due
Order Dad's b'day gifts
Send ebay sales (* 2, very small sales)
Update the holiday details (passport etc) into their system
Make kids do their homework
Prepare school items for Thursday for DD
Empty the car and next to my desk at work as things seem to be doubling there.
Make tea from FQ's blog.
Update my blog.
DD to ride pony
Hang washer on clothes horse
Put another load in (could be two if had more drying space)
Put load on timer to be washed in morning to put on line before work
Walk the dog
Think of exercising

So a few things left over to do which must be done today.

Additionally I need to:

Buy an anniversary card and gift for my parents for tomorrow.
Iron everything tonight! No excuses as no yard tonight.
Make flapjacks as too hungry at work.
Do 2 hours study for October exam.
Relist items that didn't sell on ebay.
Do at least one [EMAIL="sw@gs"]sw@gs[/EMAIL] survey.

I need to try and get back into [EMAIL="sw@gs"]sw@gs[/EMAIL] and other surveys. Especially now as I'm not doing job 2.

I am trying to keep a £200 float left over from my bonus which I am going to move to a separate account on Thursday night (pay day Friday). Even with doing this I hope to be able to pay almost £500 off my CCV next month. It's holiday month so may be an ask too far. Watch this space.
