Hello everyone!  It's been quite a while (4 months) since I last posted on here - apologies...

During that time I became more and more down about the whole job thing :o(  To the point where I didn't want to make any more journal updates.

However, and I know we've been here before, I've finally had some good news and got myself a new job, in a new ( Read more... )

Well, it was all going so well and then, from what seemed like nowhere, the gods thought they'd play with me!  To explain, what I was verbally offered for the trainer job was not what was written on the contract. In fact, it was several thousand less than what I was told! :(

I had to wait the whole weekend before I could talk to the Trainer manager ( Read more... )

Well, lots of things have been happening since I last made an entry, so I'll list them here...

1. LadyC (my old car) has sadly left me, but MissC (my new car) is now on the scene. Yep, the Celica has now been replaced by a much more modest Renault *ahem* Clio, but I must say, she's great! :)

2. KayW, LittleSis, Tom and a bunch of friends all went the ( Read more... )

It's been well over a month since my last journal entry, but not because things aren't going well..., no, quite the opposite really, everything is starting to make sense a bit more and I might be making some changes :o)

Had a great weekend this last one just gone. It was the i2 summer BBQ, so

Twas a great week last week, finished off by a great weekend! J

No work on Friday, as I had booked it off to go to Brighton to see a friend of mine, Vicky, from my days at University. Was a lovely journey down there, since I particularly like travelling on trains (but not in an anorak sort of way) and by the time I arrived the weather was really ( Read more... )

Well, I've had a fab week so far ( Read more... )

Twas a great weekend!

Breaking up early from work on Friday I went straight to the physio, which is working out very well. She recons I'll be back to full movement in about another 10 days! :o)

Friday night I attended the beer Festival with Biro-man and SmallTracey. We were supposed to meet up with
vorno, but the queue to get in was just too ( Read more... )

Was out last night with SmallTracey and we went to what used to be called the Pike & Eel, for a pint of something nice. We chatted and caught up on things and browsed through some very interesting magazines...

Tonight I've got Tiger coming over for a cuppa at the towers residency and a well overdue catch up with him. He's in the group of people that ( Read more... )

Sorry for the lack of entries, but I've had some very up and down emotions at work again (so what's new :o))

I'm starting to look upon these negative times as positive now, as it means that I'm actually starting to take action and do something about my situation. I'm looking into a lot of areas within my current job and the industry as a whole and ( Read more... )

A fantastic weekend was had!!

Friday kicked off with me fitting the cant-rails to my fence posts - finally, after having them sit on my patio for the past 5 weeks!

Friday evening was Homemade Pizza night; Biroman came over at 19:30 and after 3 bottles of the red stuff, some yummy homemade pizza and much conversation, he left at 1:30am!!  Twas a ( Read more... )
