I'm getting married... shock!

I know I have been engaged now for nearly a year but my dad just booked his travel lodge room with my sisters and grandma plus my uncle and auntie are arranging thier stay...

It is real now!

I am feeling quite scared... I really hope I can pull this off along with uni, its a good thing I have all that money saved for me to have time off while at uni..

All the little bits are left to the plan, it is really happening..

I am just going to go and take some deep breaths in a corner

Sick yet again

So I am ill yet again, woke up this morning and felt so dizzy, I kept falling over and then I threw up! Great 3 days to Christmas and I am throwing up in my bathroom.. Great!Also had to call in sick to work which made me feel like a bitch, I think I might as well sleep all today and hopefully be well enough for tomorrow..

I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph. - Shirley Temple

I've been working my butt of at my new job which is only xmas temp but I really enjoying it, I am really hoping that I can apply for a perm part-time job there as I do really like it, other than that we are still waiting for our 42inche telly (why we need a 42 inche has me confused but that is what boytoy wants but it still isn't here after two days!), I've wrapped nearly all my presents, I went and brought a load yesterday and got my muther a fab present! 


 Taking a leap out of Shannon's book, I'm going to look back on 2008, not the best year but hopefully next year will be better

January 2008 - After all the problems at work, I failed an alcohol test and was fined £80, haven't mentioned this before as I was sooo upset.. I then got told of by my work and was on my final warning.. so they could fire me!

Feb 2008 - I got engaged!!!!  Totally fab!

March 2008 -  I found my wedding dress, it is still so pretty can't wait to wear it in June! Borrowed money for boytoy's parents to buy a house.

April 2008 - Went to Scotland, got my grant for uni and we lost the flat we wanted :(

May 2008 - Was signed off sick for a week after I trapped and broke my wrist in a cage at work because we were under staffed, of course I got told off for this and work made out it was my fault!Also me and boytoy had our engagement party!

June 2008 - Had to sort out my girlie part loads of hospital visits! Exchanged contracts on our house :) Also moved into our new house and brought our kittens!I lost a temp work during this month because they wouldn't allow me time of to move my house!  Left college and got an AAA

July 2008 - Got the internet! Changed the wedding plans from getting married in Greece to getting married in England, makes everyone very happy!

August 2008 - I got into my uni!

September 2008 - Job hunting

October 2008 - Turned 23! And started uni!  Had op at the hospital took a week to recover but I can have children :) 

November 2008 - Erotica plus loads of stress from uni and work, handed in notice at work then left! Cleared my Credit Card debt only loan left!

December 2008 - Left another supermarket job and ended up at this health and beauty job :)  Boytoy left his job and starts a new one in Jan 2009! 

 Looking back it hasn't been that bad maybe I just keep thinking of the bad bits, I am hoping to keep this job as I do really like it so we will see after xmas..

 Today I've gotta go and send late xmas presents to Scottyland, use our vouchers to buy some yummy xmas food, do some revision and update my fansites..

Well it's the end of the first term...

So I left my new job at the supermarket and managed to get a job as a xmas temp for a health store so I am very excited :)  I start on Tuesday :)

It is only for 4 weeks,  but it will help me reach my goal of 1.500 for I dont' have to work till the summer and spend all my time on my studies, I think I am saving quite well... nearly 500, just waiting for my SAYE money, plus my uni loan and what is left from the paycheck in Jan.

My plan is to get some job where I'll work for free but in return for the experince, maybe a network manager or a programmer or a web designer.. I can make tea or coffee, send post, write letters.. it will look good on my CV might help me find a job after my degree.

Uni is over for this term, am still awaiting my marks, anything above 40% is a pass in these four modules... not long maybe next week..

Boytoy has seriously damanged his back and has been signed off for 4 weeks, (well he will be going into work for his new job in Jan), I am just worried, we got to wait for blood tests, gotta play it by ear...

Other than that I am going to Ikea with my mum on Monday to get some bookcases for my living room and other bits for my house plus things for the wedding :)

Wedding planning is going well, just sending out the invites this week with the xmas cards, I have been taking pictures out of my wedding magazines for my hair styles, bits for the reception and my flower designs (with help from my FMIL).

I am enjoying Gossip Girl, no new epsiodes till Jan as well as the other tv shows..

1GB yeah baby!

I am really pleased with myself as I just managed to upgrade my RAM on my PC to 1GB instead of 512Mb and it is working like a dream, I am more than likely going to get more RAM for it in the next couple of weeks.

Started my new job and lets just say I am not loving it, I am at the moment job hunting again, I was stupid enough to go back into a supermarket, well it's my own fault but I think I might have an admin job lined up but I won't hear about it for the next couple of days but in the meantime I am just applying like there is no tomorrow..

Oh well, I will just think of this job as a xmas temp role and it will make me feel better...

Urgh I am such a silly bugger sometimes..
