    They have given us the day off due to the snow situation. I will fill in my driving licence form today so my day is productive plus I have plenty of work to be doing from home.

    Same here....but iPlayer is grabbing me :)

    Trying to plan my interview lesson and dealing with the slight disappointment that whilst we are nearly ready to exchange on the house, completion has been pushed back a month!

    That means you have more time to plan it all. It should mean less stress hopefully???

    It is so quiet here. Noone has made a noise on our street all day.

    I must be ill as I have prepped a stonking lesson. :j

    Yes, it's just that with the situation at home that flares up at a second's notice, I could do with getting out....but I know that once DD, KW and I are happily settled in our little housie, my stress levels will fall a lot, no matter what job I'm in. They are both very calming influences on me (well, DD most of the time, lol!)

    29th June is the date for our move now, I might set up a countdown calendar!

    29 June so that means we will be in summer season which is a great time to move. Try to chill this weekend.

    All is well here. I am supposed to be prepping but I keep finding excuses not to. I have just bid on a jumper on fleabay that I didn't need fingers crossed I shant win the bid. I also spent £5 on naughty food from corner shop & nice lodger collected it in his car. :j:(

    Oooh, it's horrible when you do that, make a bid then hope it doesn't win! At least when you buy from a shop, you can return it easily :)

    I've got my lesson looking lush, now just need to think about what the heck to talk about in the interview!! Bleugh...

    You will be great. Just research the school and go through the job description. I am certain you will get it already.

    It's been raining here all afternoon. Quite a bit of snow is still here though.

    I haven't done any work.

    My parents roof is leaking from all the snow, they have water in their rooms. Everyone in their street has the same problem. I can imagine the whole area has it and the insurance doesn't cover any of them. I can't believe how nasty and untrustworthy insurance companies are.

    Thank goodness we have savings. Thank goodness for MSE.

    I spent almost £3 on food and charity things at work today. Yikes.
