    Hi all just a quick pop in.

    Wow weddings, hedgepig poo, pavlova, Dolly, jellybeans, raspberries, offers of champers.

    Twins OMG  image   I have twin brother & sister five years younger, when I was eight I asked Mum if I could go to boarding school. imageimage Might have been more to do with midnight feasts that I'd read about in my June & Schoolfriend comic. image Does anyone remember Lucky's living Doll ( called Tina) ?

    Pdoc glad you got to G and all the best to Mum.

    Got some plants to put in pots and deadheading to do.

    Fridge/freezer sorted online, delivery Wed' a.m. so that's my morning spoken for  and SM in afternoon...role on Thursday. image

    Well the colour will be blue (since its our favourite colour). All other plans however will now be on hold as the bosses have just made three people redundant and we're waiting to see who is next.

    Not amusing that all three of those wages for a year are less than the new machine they brought earlier this year that sits in the car park unused. image

    Tonight I shall be sending my CV to agencies and the lot. I haven't been here long enough to benefit from redundancy money so I'm jumping ship before we sink completely. A job in Tesco will do me until I can sort out changing my career.

    Ooh Clarington, not good image I hope you get something sorted soon, keeping everything crossed.

    I've been working from home outside this afternoon, sorting paperwork in the sunshine......vitamin D has to be the best cure for everything, I've decided imageimage

    Hi KEF image



    OL, that sounds good, hope you feel better soon image



    Clari, i was made redundant last year, along with most of my department, its not always a bad thing, lots of them have gone on to do things they never would have been brave enough to do had they not been forced to. Something better may be just around the cornerimage

    Oh I hope so Bekkie. I've a fantastic opportunity that *could* be presented to me but funding is a problem so it may not happen. I know I'm capable of it, I know that I could make it so much more than *awesome* with a big spoonful of *hell yeah*.

    Anyway I find out on Friday if I'm out so the weather had better be good for the weekend!!

    Clari, good luck, hope all goes well for you.  If you do get made redundant on Friday, maybe its the nudge you needed for your new venture.....when one door closes, another door opens. Best wishes Clari x

     

    Mmmmm pavlova,  yummy....no no no I'm on a diet

    I don't honestly know whether to say fingers crossed for you to stay or go Clari, it sounds very much like you could do with a nudge in the direction of following something much more meaningful for you.  Anyway, whichever way you want it to go most that's what I'll wish for you....if that makes sense??

    Clari - been there so know a bit of how you're feeling - but as one door closes another opens - hope it all works out brilliantly for you image
