Resignation & all that belongs to my former employer have been handed in general manager said to Vince i'll read this later & get back to you,i need these signs doing for the toilets,had a lovely morning with a friend drinking coffee & putting the world to rights but the best bit was i was telling somebody that used to come in where i worked what had happened & she said do you want to come & work for me,i was well surprised,it's to cover holidays in a sandwich shop & help when she has a buffet & i'm going to see her in the morning to sort out the details
Well this will make you smile,Vince came in the bedroom this morning to make sure i was getting up & said polly's about i can hear her,walked onto the landing & she was halfway up our stairs,3 guesses who came to bed last night & left 1 of the room windows open!!!!
hope all are well & enjoying the cooler weather

Hey, Sister, looks like everything's coming together for you, I'm so very pleased, and Polly coming home, too.......will she bring you her babies?
Well, I am shattered, it's been a really busy weekend, but now I'm going to get to bed!
Hugs for you all xxx

Hey Carol, sounds like whatever happened at work was a really good thing in the end, the start of lots of exciting things. I am really pleased that things are working out so well.
Had a busy day yesterday so have woken up a bit tired, hoping a yoga stretch will wake me up this morning. This will be my first class since chemo started (have been having one private session a week during chemo) looking forward to getting back into it.
Have a great day all!
Love Jakki xxx
Good morning from a dull & damp lincolnshire
Thank you Jakki,am just getting sorted for an interview (first one in over 30 years) then lunch with a friend,got up this morning & feel more like the old me again & i think you're right & it was a good thing that happened but not in a good way,good luck with the yoga class
Hope all have a good day
Love & hug

I GOT THE JOB,she offered it to me there & then,at the minute it's just odd days now & then to cover holidays,sick leave,do deliveries & help with buffets but hopefully over the next few weeks it will get a bit busier & i'll get a couple of regular days a week,at the minute this will suit me just fine,i'm going in for the day next wednesday to see how they work
Hope all are having a good day
xx
Well done Sister, go girl
Dont go over doing it Jakk, you are no longer having chemo but it will take a while before your immune system is back on track. Be kind to yourself.
Actually that was advice I was given some years ago when I was first ill with my kidneys. Be kind to youself and dont feel guilty about it. Not carte Blanche to be selfish, but remember to look after yourself.
Thanks Gillian
I was so chuffed when she offered me the job
Well less about me,how are you doing,hope you're keeping well & you're rested & you are too remembering to be kind to yourself
