SevenofSeven Posted November 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 Just spent the last two hours writing up a cover letter and updated resume`for Son2. My ankles are puffy and my spirit is low, we were supposed to have a full roast lamb dinner tonight and all my kids will get is roast lamb sandwiches. I really dislike it when one of the kids and their needs out strip the others. But I need Son2 to have a job more than we need a lamb dinner with all the trimmings. Damn! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
Basement Cat Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 Was Son2 at least paying attention on how to write cover letters so he'll be able to do it on his own later? If not, he should get PB&J while the others get roast lamb sandwiches. That would teach him. Sorry to hear you're feeling down. For you puffy ankles, here's a virtual foot massage. 1 Quote Current form: Chubby House Cat (lvl4) Weight objective: 20% S. 4 P. 6 E. 4 C. 7 I. 8 A. 4 L. 5 Battle log Current Challenge Handy linky.

I guess we will see if this works, we followed a template for youth job seekers, so pretty standard fair really. I just need him to be up at 7.00 am ready to front the office when they open in full work dress, looking like he is ready to work! Tricks of the trade. So long since I needed to actually look for a job, one seems to forget the little things matter sometimes. We have already been over eye contact, using Sir or Mr and a firm handshake.

bigdude Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Did some jogging myself today. Not sure it's my thing but what the heck...Amazing how easy the habit slips, eh?Forcing myself to lift these last days. Now I'm starting to be happy about again. I suggest going out and pitching some iron around. 1 Quote 100lb Weight loss goal: 25lbs as of Jan 1,2019 Link to comment
SevenofSeven Posted November 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 Today was so tedious at work today, I couldn't stop watching the clock and each minute was sooooooo slow. Certainly didn't help that the water was bloody cold. Something had gone wrong with the pumps and they couldn't pump the warm water through to the pools.Managed to get some Christmas shopping done, so yah! 1 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted November 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 I like that we might get - temps maybe three times a winter, in the middle of winter. I don't think I could do bitter cold, that takes a special breed of person. I hate my face being cold and the weird feeling of cold but really dry skin. Not pleasant. Quote Wait! What............?

Thom Stépan Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Much the same over here Seven. Though if I head further east I will be in the Snowys, and that will be a bit colder in winter. Woden uses ravens, I use an iphone.
