    he new residents make me happy every day. Now they have even learned how to ask to go out. Stand by the door and mew pathetically, staring at me the while... with those huge golden eyes ...There is no limit to their skills! taken a while of threatening to pee where no cat should pee, but we got there.. ;)

    Did a job interview today. Was over in 35 minutes which is blazing fast. I’ve done some in the past that lasted 90 minutes and I’d leave sweating and exhausted!!

    I can talk and talk for 25 minutes non stop about my CV but they stopped me 10 minutes in and said they could see my experience and didn’t need to go through it all and they were happy

    Few more easy questions and was out the door.

    I’m either spectacularly amazing or spectacularly terrible and they didn’t want to waste time on me :p

    TH’d I had a gluewhein in the square outsiden afterwards :)

    Starting to win a diagremeent over a major change I have been pushing in work over the past few months this project has been on going fíf nearly 7 months and it's getting there.

    It's going to save up to 300k over a few years for our budget.

    But knowing the company I work there will be ups and downs like the stock market but I love the fight

    Just poured myself the biggest glass of wine. I’ve nowhere to be for the next few days only chilling at home with family and some nights out with friends who are home for Christmas. Nothing major to report happiness wise but I feel content. I wouldn’t usually be a massive fan of this time of year but so far so good.

    The best kind of happiness :) Have a great time!!

    My TH is the undeniable intense attraction I'm feeling for someone.

    Yesterday I posted in the TA thread that my cockatiels wrecked my raincoat by eating the zip (for some reason they are obsessed with zips and those dangly things that hang off the strings on hoods*). I was pretty annoyed because I didn't think I would get a better one but today, low and behold, I came across one that is just as good but even better! It is fleece lined on the inside, so not only is it waterproof, it's also warm. So in a round about way the cockatiels did me a favour but I'm not telling them that :p

    *Does anyone know what those things are called? It's the plastic thing that is at the end of a draw string on hoodies, to stop the string falling out of the hoodie. My cockatiels absolutely love them and I'd love to know if I could buy them on there own, as I know they'd love them on a string or something.

    Thanks but it's not what I'm looking for. It's a little plastic thing with a spring device that allows you to move up and down something by pushing a button. I'm not explaining it right, which is probably why I can't find the correct name for it :o

    My youngest son who would only go on stage for school plays and not take part in anything in previous years was brilliant in tonight's play. He did everything he was meant to do. I'm so proud of him. I couldn't believe how well he did.

    Yes! That's it :) I'm going to buy loads and hang them so the cockatiels can chew on them and not my clothes lol :D

    I don't know why they are so obsessed with them but it really does give them hours of entertainment!
