Well hello there, I think Reggie and I are feeling a bit sheepish as we've not been here for a while, although I suspect Reg won't like being called sheepish, although he looks more the part than I do
Sorry, I haven't been posting as I do almost without fail log in every day to see how you all are doing with SW and in general terms too. Things are plodding along here, just about keeping our heads above water although I'm not sure how much longer we can do that. There is nowhere we can cut back and really the only way out for us is me to get work and I am applying for anything and everything. I'm doing my best not to let things undermine my confidence or not to let things get me down. Positive attitude will get positive results but sometimes it does get hard to maintain a cheerful outlook.
SW plan is totally a thing of the past as I have said before but as soon as I am able I will be back on it. I weighed myself a couple of weeks ago and I've put on a couple of pounds in the last 2 or 3 months perhaps longer so at least I'm not doing any serious damage - in that respect - GO poverty!! woop woop!!
It's a beautiful morning here, blue skies occasional cloud and 21C and probably will only warm up to about 26 or 27 - I love winter! I'm taking my little old lady friend out to do some shopping this morning, so that will be fun! LittleOzMoz and I spent the afternoon with her yesterday strangely enough talking about English history, she was really testing my memory! She was telling me about life here when she was little, she says she can just about remember when there were no cars at all and local travel was by pony and trap! After that, it's back to the grindstone, the weekend paper had a few jobs in so back to writing covering letters and tailoring my cv/resume. I'm sick of the sight of it. Upside is though that I know it backwards/forwards and inside out now. The first few times I sent it off I was quite staggered at some of the tasks I used to do, I kept thinking cor blimey I was clever in the olden days.... now my brain has atrophied into a gloopy sort of porridge which only the bravest should venture into wearing gum boots of course.... oooh hark at me "gum boots" bloomin' wellies they are!!
Anyway, I shall keep posting and cheering you all on - do as I say and not as I do
