Had a good day today! Spoke to my vet/boss about the job I want. Actually he asked me if I was going for it and when I asked how he knew he said he's knows everything :p I'm assuming my friend from there told him and that he isn't actually psychic! Anyway he's really excited for me and said that it would be the perfect job for me. Also said to make sure he's my reference :D Spoke to the nurse as well and they've both said they will help me prepare as much as possible. I did a training session on reception today and got to phone a client about a tortoise (eeeek!), answer the phone, and do two card payments :D
They've asked me to take in any info I get with my application pack so they can help me as much as possible. SO excited!! :eek:

Have spent the rest of the afternoon tidying like a crazy person. The living room is a bit more tidy and I've had a big clear out and tidy in my room. Got all my Ebay stuff ready to post....there's a few hours left on my clothes sale btw. I'm geoffthegodofbiscuits if anyone is interested ;)

Well a twist has occurred! My friend at the vets who started as a volunteer and works part time has been offered (and has taken) a training position at a training practice!! Now everyone has always hinted at me being next in line...So yeah, eeek!
I still desperately want to go for the PDSA job, which they know and are supporting me. Just making me wonder if they will offer me something whilst I'm waiting to see if I get an interview or whether they will pass me over because they know I am looking for something else. Gah!!

SW wise I totally suck this week! Went out with my friend to celebrate her news and the pub we went to had Desperados, which is one of my fave beers, so I gave in thinking it would be about the same syn wise as a Budweiser. Apparently not! Getting a few different calorie info from a google search, but I'm gonna go for the middle and say it was 9 :eek: :cry: So I've totally gone over today. FFS! I have some saved, but I was supposed to be saving for my evening off on Friday. Ah well, absolutely no chance of losing next week and will prob put on :rolleyes: Probably wont get weighed next week :p

Green Day

Breakfast: 1 Weetabix and 1 Chocolate Weetabix (HexB1 + 1), raisins (2), banana, skimmed milk (all milk HexA1), and Splenda.

Lunch: 2 Quorn sausages, scrambled eggs, half a tin of beans, 2 slices of wholemeal little bread (HexB2), and 1tbsp of tomato sauce (1)

Tea: Quorn pieces, some tinned tomato's, spinach, red onion, and a micro veg bag mixed in. Fettuccine and HexA2 low fat cheese.

At the cinema: Pack of Snacksters (5)

Drinks: Diet Coke. Coffee. A Desperados (9)

Syns used: 18
Syns left: 5.5

Exercise: Around an hour and 30mins walking.
Hours and hours of yet more cleaning, tidying, and sorting out the animals.
 
Your house must be spotless with all this cleaning!!
18 syns isn't really a disaster now, is it?! You can make that up before the weekend no problem... and I doubt 60 calories will make much of a difference...

That's really really good news about another potential job - I reckon if they are seriously considering offering you the post they will bide their time and wait and see what happens with the other job first to avoid putting you in an awkward situation. However, they may well do other interviews first as employers have to advertise externally etc. to be seen to be recruiting fairly, so don't lose heart if you hear about other candidates :)
 
Thanks dude!
Nothing was said today about the job-but you could be right! I did spend about 30mins talking to the vet and having him go over the application for the PDSA. Got some great advice from him and I'm even more excited about it now.
Just SO tired!! I actually look as tired as I feel now. So, you know, hideous :p
God I wish the house was spotless. It was just a tip to start with so taking a lot of work to put right. Just annoying coz I don't get any help. But hey, it looks nice :) Just go to hoover downstairs, mop the kitchen floor, and keep on top of the dishes tomorrow. Really looking forward to tomorrow night, just wish I wasn't so tired!!

Lol! Yeah, I know I had a bit of a tantrum over nothing. Esp as I had some syns saves anyway. Just annoying coz I'm usually so good at saving syns, but the week I actually need to save syns I struggle :rolleyes: But anyway, looking forward to all the naughty food and drink tomorrow too ;)

Just filled out my application :D I'm so f*cking tired I made a couple of little mistakes, but hopefully it wont matter too much. Just teeny spelling mistakes that I crossed out :eek:
I'm all achy from being tired and I have crazy sneezes and sniffles from all the bloody dust. Time for bed I think! Couldn't even manage my 2 Alpen Lights :p
 
Thanks mate! I hope it goes well too. I'm so fed up of dating tho that I'm not even excited yet! Hopefully I will be tomorrow. I'm meeting him for coffee and then we're heading to Bug World (where my best mate is head keeper) for a nosey round :)

Had an almost on plan day today. I had a completely syn free lunch and my tea was only 4.5 syns, but then I had a Mars Bar coz I really wanted one :p So prob only a couple of syns over, but still :eek:
Absolutely, definitely fully back on the wagon tomorrow!!
 
That sounds like an awesome date! Hope everything goes well! I'm sure one Mars bar won't do too much damage :) I've gone off plan this weekend too- it was my godson's first birthday party yesterday and there was buffet food, I haven't even kept a diary this weekend because I'm too ashamed! Haha. Ah well, porridge in the morning and back on plan from there! xx
 
My Sister somehow managed to lose 1lb and she hasn't been following WW properly all week and had the 2 days off like I did. I'm not even gonna bother getting weighed this week. I didn't get weighed last week tho and hopefully I lost, so it shouldn't be too bad :p

Date went well I think. I'm not sure about stuff but it could just be because I was nervous and I just assume that no one likes me :eek: We've been texting this evening tho, so you never know :)

Very much back on SW today :D
