Cygnet

Grooming on the canal :)

More on my Facebook page... and the one in my Extras is talking :)

A very interesting morning workshop on CV and Letter Writing followed by a tour of a factory producing chutneys etc!  We came away with 4 different chutney jars, yummy :) :)  

However, to get there I left home at 7.50am for a 9am start and didn't get there til after 9.10am due to an accident and overturned van on the A339.  Stop start traffic all the way from just the other side of Newbury (and I hate being late) :(  Note to self to allow extra time tomorrow...though that job is much closer!

On the way back through town I attempted to find some new tops in the charity shops, but there was nothing I liked in the right size for me...

Having taken the camera, I then walked down to the canal to see the cygnets.  There were only two cygnets and no swans today (out of the 8 cygnets seen the last time.  I wondered if the family were starting to separate out, but on reading from a website about cygnets, I discovered they normally stay with the parents at least six months...so I'm not sure about that?

A while ago (when I was feeling very low) a very lovely Blipper sent me a card to give me a couple of coffees at Costa.  I have done this once before, but still had enough to have another, so I popped to Costa (and in the end have a bite to eat) before coming home.

Today I signed off Job Seekers Allowance before starting my 3 days work tomorrow (and I've had two phone calls this morning regarding other jobs although there is more than one candidate with each, with the potential to start next week!). Things are looking up, so hopefully I won't have to go back onto JSA...

Very tired, but very happy TB :)

Although I now have work, I am still applying for jobs, doing two online courses and looking after Katie next door while her human is away for the week... 


Apologies in advance, but I really don't think I'll have much time to comment on your journals.  I will try to pop by and leave hearts/stars etc. though but if I miss a day, I'm sure you'll understand  :)

Happy Tuesday folks :)
