    Afternoon Friday Hitched Dwellers....

    Good - i have an interview on Monday (for a 3mth temp job)

    Good - I have a wedding exhibition to do on Sunday

    Bad - I had to turn down another temp opportunity STARTING on Monday (no interview req) because the interview on Monday is for a longer term job.... first straight in, no questions asked thing thats come my way in 14 weeks and I had to say no! Argh!

    Bad - me and Mr SP aren't getting on very well : ( (think its cos I'm not working and I feel like I'm going stir crazy in this flat!)

    Bad - might have to cancel a trip to Tain up in the Highlands (very north of Inverness) because of potential work - and I was so looking fwd to that!

    Good - I had a pint of Red Bull and a bag of M&Ms for breakfast

    None of that is reeeealy 'weekend' related other than the wedding exhibition. But its good to 'share' all these things! Stops my head from imploding. I'm a virgo too Beccy Sprout - i'm not good with out structure or knowing what is happening when, where, why, for how long, who is going to be there, what they will be wearing and whether or not I need to dress for snow or sunshine.
