Unemployed…
We finally had news today at work and it wasn’t good. The company has gone into administration, which basically means the company can’t pay their debts so the bank is appointing someone to come in and deal with things. We will find out more from whoever is appointed our adminstrator tomorrow, but for now that…

When the going gets tough, sign up for a 5K?
I didn’t mention this in my last post on Friday, but that day was pay day. We weren’t paid. It’s Tuesday now and still nothing. And we don’t have any idea of when we will be paid. Needless to say this is very frustrating and horribly stressful. I’m already stressed out enough, I didn’t need this…

Snowed In
Today was my first day back at work and due to the snow that has frozen into ice over night, I’m working from home! Hubby is too and it’s always funny when he claims I’m disrupting him when I’m sitting here not making any sounds other than typing and clicking! Working from home or having…

The Noughties
I am writing this from the plane currently taking us to the US. I hate flying for a plethora of reasons; the current one being absolute boredom. I never sleep whilst flying, not for lack of want or need, but I truly can’t no matter how tired I am. Anyway, this month marks the end…

Happy New Year’s!
I had today off so decided to do a bit of shopping. I really want a nice, warm, cuddly bathrobe and thought they’d now be on sale. Off to Chippenham I go, first stopping in New Look to have a look at the dresses. They had this little black strapless one that I’ve loved and…

Changes Afoot
Well it is OFFICIAL!! I’m a UK Citizen!!! As of last week (12th November 2008) I am a full UK citizen. 🙂 The last step in what has been a long, expensive process is to get my UK passport. I’ll be doing that in the new year. YAY! Otherwise there is not a lot going…

Urgh.
Well it’s still Autumn-y outside, and colder now, so I’m happy about that. I helped a really old lady cross the street yesterday, too! That made me smile. Work is quite busy and stressful at the moment. I sat down with my boss today and we worked out a schedule for me for this month,…
