    Hypno, I've only just caught up on your diary, so I'm a bit late with this, but for what it's worth, I think you are making the right decision with regard to your course.

    You say you are throwing it all away, but is that really true? Haven't you learnt anything from it? The course isn't JUST about the result on a piece of paper at the end, and the skills/knowledge you have gained in doing the course will still be yours to keep for ever and ever. :)

    And I agree about the karate admin too. We have all been saying you need more time for yourself, and yes, frequently I have been astonished at your superhuman ability to keep pushing yourself, but sometimes I have been a little worried for you too hun (because I do care about you and want you to be happy, with a balanced, healthy life....I'm a mum, I can't help it! :rotfl:).

    One thing that occured to me - are there bonuses etc in your job? I was thinking that maybe if you did streamline your life, and had more energy to devote to your career, your bonus potential would most likely increase accordingly, and therefore you may not be as out of pocket as you expect?

    I hope you are having a nice day at work. Take care x

    I don't have anything else to add, except what everyone else is saying probably echoes your thoughts.
    With regards to the course, snaggles is right, an awful lot of skills there. I would look into credits for the course that you have done so far, each unit being worth so many. If then you wished to revisit in the future then you can transfer your credits to the course. Worth a thought.

    Having difficulty posting - don't know if anyone else is having the same problems or is it just me (and Pania).....

    Morning guys! Well, we have a techie shortage in the hypno household.......we are having to share a laptop at the moment and the old steam driven pc didn't accept any posts from us yesterday! So, little chance to get on MSE :mad:

    Most of you will know that yesterday Pania was made redundant, so the early part of the evening was spent looking for jobs with her (her broadband has been cut off by her employer already :mad: ), coupled with switching to free bingo - poor P, every time she wanted to do something "serious" I needed to buy free tickets........I don't think I got my priorities right......sorry P :o

    Needless to say I won nothing - there's karma for you!!

    Today - work, karate, skiing.....finding time to eat somewhere along the line....hoping for a lift part way to work so I can save on the bus far a bit, and continuing the latte/egg card challenge!!

    Have a good day everyone x
