  • Hi all x

    Thanks to Natty and Bossy for the threads x

    I'm still being rubbish at keeping up with the thread. I'm hoping that next week will see a stop to the madness as I will be only working at one job. This working 7 days is knocking it right out of me.
    I've been managing to keep up with the laundry but that's been about it really. I don't start till 1pm tomorrow so should be able to get a few things done beforehand.

    Thank you for the new thread Bossy.

    I'm back from my holiday we had a busy weekend with a big party for DH's eldest daughter's 30th birthday. It was scorching hot, so glad we did it Saturday and not soggy Sunday.


    Big day today. I've dropped DH at the station, he has gone back to paid work, working as a consultant. first time in 7 months.
    I have an interview with the NH5 in Che1msf0rd. I really want this job!
    DS2 enrols at college for the second year of his College BTEC Course. He has 100% attendance and achieved the maximum in all the Units he completed last year, I hope he sticks with it and doesn't get distracted.


    I am going to practice some audio typing now in preparation for my interview. I will tackle the bathrooms this afternoon while I'm torturing myself about what I should have said and done in the said interview.


    CY glad to see that you've seen some cricket. Thinking of you x.


    Dusty must catch up soon x

    Dentist for me this morning as I broke a tooth at the weekend :(

    Then I shall 'do' the bathroom and possibly start to tackle my ROD which is actually the garage!!!

    Then I may go work for a couple of hours as my classroom is still in need of sorting and tidying then I have circuits at 5.45pm

    Right must get moving as the dentist awaits!!
    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last
