Hope you hear some good news today Jewlz!

My IA is that I feel horrible with flu like symptoms. 


Probably cos you don't rinse your dishes. ;) Seriously, I hope it doesn't develop into something worse. :(

Jewlz- that sucks! Fingers crossed for an update today.

My IA: I have to get up and go deal with 150 12 year olds. Would rather stay in bed and sleep....

Hmm, I just looked into fashion world. That would be an option if I weren't a size 4-6. :-\\\\ Perhaps I'll try to find something similar. Thanks!
They have home and holiday stuff...I hope you find something to start building credit ;-)
Just saw in the paper that Alnwick Gardens has cut 40 jobs this morning. No idea whether or I even have the job at the restaurant anymore, as I emailed a few days ago to find out when they want me to start and no response yet.  :\\\'( No word yet about the temporary job either, and no word about the factory. Sheesh.  >:(

Geez! hugss I hope it doesn't affect you!

My IA: Not feeling so hot. :( Not feeling bad enough to leave work, just enough that I keep noticing that I feel blah.

So frustrating.  I've got my fingers crossed for you, Jewlz.

Get some rest and I hope you feel better soon!

Oh no. I keep hearing of more and more friends in the UK losing their jobs, or getting their hours seriously cut, or being asked to retire early.  I think Europe has been even harder hit than the US. Hope you get some good news soon, J.

i realise that none of the people occupying the train carriage i board in the morning on the way to work are actually responsible for knocking me up, but you'd think at least one of them would have the simple human decency to get off their ass and let me park my massive bump down for the eight minute journey.

Upon return to Leeds yesterday, DH found 2 snotty letters from the Council saying everyone must keep the pathways free by cutting back their trees, bushes, etc. We have a very high wall out the front with massive trees behind it. He's already cut back the holly bush -- what do they want? No trees?
I don't understand how the British are such keen gardeners and nature-lovers but seem to detest trees.  ???

Know the feeling. My cubicle is right outside a conference room where they always forget to shut the stupid door! Tired of trotting over and "sweetly" asking them to shut it. Just shut up!!  >:(

Didn't get the temporary office job I really wanted. I really wish the woman yesterday hadn't told me to mark my calendar because it was a 9 out of 10 chance I was going to get the job. I'm so gutted right now I can hardly stand it. I should never get my hopes up. Lately, every time I do, I get kicked in the teeth. I can't even help feeling sorry for myself. And to top it all off, my boob is f'in playing up again, so I will probably be back in the hospital getting another procedure next week.  :\\\'( [smiley=sick.gif] [smiley=sa3.gif] [smiley=shame.gif] [smiley=bigcry.gif]
