rach

solway - did you fall off the food wagon cos of having the blokey around? i spend loads more when OH is here as we eat more and also eat more expensive stuff! he is more fussy than me and i like to make nicer things then!

think he'd go and get a kebab if i fed him my slow cooker stew with veg and quorn tonight (which was gorgeous!)

Rach, sorry to hear about the job - I was so hoping that it was going to be good news for you. Big HUGS to you! It's not silly having a cry about it - I felt like crying the other day too when I was rejected, but I'm feeling a bit more postive now, especially since all of the support I've had on here. The jobs were obviously not for us, but it's good that you had positive feedback.

thanks sexymouse, i think its just that even though you tell everyone you're not expecting to get it inside you are hoping so hard that you are! i know there must be a job out there for both of us - it's just a slog finding it!!!

hi all, sorry about your job rach- so horrible when you are waiting for that phone call and then it isn't what you hoped for.


Hopefully will start working for Teletech Nov 19th. Won't be able to sit on here then!! Can't really work during the day so hopefully everything will work out for me as we could really do with the extra money.

Anyway have stopped on the kitchen this evening as had to pop round my mums to pick up DH driving lincense and stayed round and had a lovely cup of tea and some peace and quiet
