So at the end of this week spirits are still up and I'm staying positive. Tuesday coming I've an interview in Solihull and then on Friday I've a telephone interview in the morning and a face to face interview in Nottingham just after midday. I've somewhere around another 8 - 10 jobs that I've applied for where I'm waiting to hear back and so far only 2 have notified me that I'm not being considered. There are definitely jobs out there to be had, the problem is getting considered.
Mother had a check up at the hospital this week, no bad news though they are not really sure whats causing her headaches and tummy pains. My view is that it's the stress she's under looking after Dad. He also went in to hospital for an investigation on his waterworks problems, but, he too came away with a clean bill of health and no real answer as to why he has sediment in his catheter.
Mark has had a week of training ready for his summer job that he'll be doing for the next 6 weeks as a Play Care attendant -- just hope the scheme is better attended this year. Two years ago they were inundated, so last year they doubled the cost of attending and as a result hardly any kids attended. Hopefully they have learnt from their mistakes and priced it accordingly.
Suzie was a Presiding Officer on the local by-election yesterday -- the Lib Dems got back in so Derby is still under their control as they have 2 more councillors than Labour. Didn't the SNP do well on home soil up in Scotland though. Hopefully the long knives will soon be out for Gordon Brown.
Angie and John are up and staying with Mum & Dad this weekend and Norman next door has his birthday on Sunday and is (weather permitting) having a BBQ Saturday for us all to celebrate with him. So let's all hope that we don't get any of the forecasted rain (the BBC are rarely correct these days so we should therefore see more of the sun) and we can all have a nice, well earned, relaxing weekend.
