Guest Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Hello Everyone! I am really full of the joys today, which makes a nice change! It's strange writing happy posts when things have been quite difficult lately! Went for the dreaded weigh in yesterday evening. Had cheated all weekend with mexican, chinese and bbq dinners and was amazed to find that I'd lost 2 pounds last week. I am so pleased and it is noticing too! Got 4 and a half pounds to lose before I get my 1 stone award, so feeling very chuffed! Funding for Uni is sorted thanks to wonderful other half! And finally... Certificates are in the post! Wow, after nearly a year working without them, I have passed the dreaded key skills maths exam with 75% so my training providers are sending them out to me, which is a relief as a recent letter from uni said I would need them to enrol. I now have a start date for my new job, although there may be a few hiccups with childcare, they can only allocate 2 afternoons to Natalie, so I'm going to have to juggle it a bit, but I don't care! I start in September and I am very excited! On a slightly sadder note, today was the last day in my managers job and although I'm sad to be going, I'm really excited about everything else, so it's not getting to me as much as I thought. I'm kind of glad to be going back to 'normal', giving myself time to do the FD and just develop my skills a bit more before launching into a role which is slightly more than I can handle. Feeling very, very happy today and wanted to share it all with my forum friends!! Quote
