Currently using one of the PC’s at the A4e office, last session before christmas and they gave us a slice of pizza for lunch! Just thought I would see if I could access my website through the A4e connection and as you can see I can. Going to spend the rest of the day doing, what will probably be the last, of my christmas shopping. Just need a few bits for my mum.

This week has been a busy one, but hopefully all will be ready for christmas when it finally arrives.

Programme centre does seem to be going quite well, today I was shown my action plan which details the modules and tasks that I am going to be given over the next 10 or so weeks. Most of it sounds useful, its all related to helping me get back into work, interview technique, telephone manner and such. All in all it does give me some hope for the new year.

Wow, seems like I only update this monthly now. I feel I should write here more often, but at times it feels like a chore.. I’m writing for myself anyway so if I don’t feel like writing I suppose it doesn’t matter.

Gradually getting ready for christmas even though its only a week away. We never do a “Big” christmas, my mum has come down so it will be the usual spent with her and my brother. Wasn’t as ready as I would have liked for her arrival, but we shall get the house ready together now she is here.

On the work front I’ve recently started a program designed to help me get back into work. CV writing skills, interview techniques etc. It’s two 4 hour sessions a week. Not that much but for me it was a large step just getting myself there. I really feel this could be what I need to finally clamber out of my rut. We shall see I suppose. 12 weeks to go.

To all who read, merry xmas and a happy new year if I don’t post anything else before hand
