    I expected the summer job money in today but it hasn’t arrived. Monday is the pay day and with it being bank holiday I thought it would come in today. £10 win came in.

    I’ve tackled some cleaning bits in the house and decluttered enough to warrant a tip run. One room looks notably different now the sides are clearer. I’ve started to clear the spare room again and will finish that tomorrow.

    I’ve contacted the university to ask to defer and my fate is now in their hands.
    I shall let fate decide. It’ll give me time to find alternatives and sort things out.

    Sorry to hear you can’t accept the course. Is it for something completely differently from your current career?

    Uni has messaged to tell me ‘not to worry’ they really want me to do the course and will work round me.

    I’m crying. I’m so emotional about it. 

    It’s similar to my job role but the highest I can go in anything so will open a lot of doors for me.

    Thank you. It was a rollercoaster for a few days where I was ecstatic I got on and then low that I couldn’t do it.

    So many of my friends have also offered to help. All ones that DD knows so I’m hoping I can rotate so it will only be asking one person once.

    Morning,

    I’m off to an air show for the day today. It’s on a beach so really can’t wait to get there. I’m not driving either so that will be nice to sit back and relax.

    The £125 owed was paid last night. I didn’t doubt it would arrive just wasn’t sure when. No sign of last of the summer money so it will have to be Tuesday now. 

    Last few days will be busy before returning to work. I plan on making the most of the holidays.

  • Happy to hear the news that it all turned out well in the end . Enjoy the airshow and being driven there . My DS is going to one just over the border so assume it's the same one 😂
