Thanks Jen.
Well, after a funny ole start to the day - up again in the night, couldn't sleep etc etc, things have somewhat improved.
Weather is glorious down here at the moment, beautiful sunshine, hope it lasts as off to hairdresser tomorrow. Had to change my appointment from Friday to tomorrow, and here's the reason why......
As you might have read, hubby has been fed up at work, they are changing things drastically and there is a lot of discontent.
Yesterday I emailed a few local companies, on his behalf, and sent off CVs.
Today, just having a quick think, thought I would check Yellow Pages, just to see if there was anywhere else I could send his CVs to. Found one, and sent it off at 11.20. At 11.35 they rang, and I put them in touch with him - who was at work.
Turns out the General Manager knows hubby, they served their apprenticeship at the same place many moons ago, and he is going down for an interview on Friday afternoon. Hubby said to me that he thought they sounded very interested (actually the word he used was "desperate"
) but I prefer "interested".
So, fingers crossed, he might be offered a job with them. He would need to be offered an increase in pay compared to what he earns now, as there would be a bit more travelling involved. But as the house is on the market, we could move a bit closer to make it a bit easier for him.
So, bless, he wants me to go with him (the phrase "joined at the hip" springs to mind) I swear he would take me to work with him too if he was able! At least I can prime him for the appropriate questions to ask, and remind him that if they do offer him a job, that we have a holiday booked and that they will have to let him have that time off.
On the lack of food front, SSing is going well, I am still glugging. Have decided to continue until next Monday and whatever I weigh, I weigh! Then is the re-feeding bit, which I hate, 'cos I am never sure what I should be doing half the time (nothing new there then )
Hubby will be home just after 5, and we will have a quick rekkie on the company's website so that he can get some background info.
I have had yet another boring day again today, which makes it very difficult not to think about food. Cleaned windows, cleaned cloakroom, fed cats, played about on comp, made dinner for hubby ready to throw into the oven and that's about it.
Apparently weather is changing here tomorrow, nothing new there then, as every time I go to the hairdresser the rain always lashes down.
Well, that's about it for now. Will keep those of you interested posted.
