hi @greenpea glad you had a nice weekend & got some housework out of the way - I've been putting off the vacuming for a long while, just don't have the energy after cooking, dishes & laundry. Yeah, it's so hard to keep away from chocolate! I did a 10km hike yesterday which was good but on the way home I was dying of cravings & stopped to buy cadbury's chocolate and then I ate about half the block last night..which is not so good! I'm a bit anxious as I've got a technician coming today to install nbn. I hate having strangers in the home and can't wait for it to be over. Fingers crossed it goes smoothly.

hi @TAB well done for wokring hard. what's on for today, will you spend today at home now?

hi @Meowmy that's wonderful you had a long walk, I love wetlands they are so peaceful. It's really nice that you have a friend to have afternoon tea with, well done for socialising & enjoying yourself 

hi @frog @MDT @BlueBay @Ant7  hope you have a good day today

@BryanaCamp @MDT @BlueBay  Hey guys have a great day! love gpxxxx

faster internet is worth having a stranger in your house for a small time I think @BryanaCamp lol
But I see your point still. Take it easy my friend.

havea good one super pea @greenpea

Hi @BryanaCamp  thanks re work it was hard work, well I made hard work of it lol

umm had to go in to early monthly meeting so thats 2 hours pay , and 2 more on offer if get link for induction am waiting on. think at this stage  might get taken off and put on another job, so yeah went in at 6, was home at 6.30 lol

[BryanaCamp]

thanks for the reassurance @MDT, it's kind of you. I'm not tech savvy so had little idea of what the nbn could provide, I more or less put it off until it was crunch-time & had to change over!

Well that's a short day @TAB and a very early start. Hope the induction thing goes ok.

[TAB]

yeah I was confused, thought was going to work on site after doing inductions, . @BryanaCamp  anyway got 2 hrs pay  haha yeah not getting nbn here its not much good plus extra expense. I just use phone as modem for computer

[BryanaCamp]

that's a bit annoying with work @TAB oh well at least you got some pay (I must admit sounds better than my unemployment!) & you'll get to look after yourself a little, have something nice to eat?

yeah, I wouldn't change to nbn if I didn't have to as I hate change - if it aint broke don't fix it, your phone modem sounds good - and it costs more but as Ham said, maybe it'll be faster. Got no food in my house so should shop soon. Got a load of laundry to hang out but it's a bit rainy here.

hi @BryanaCamp suny and cold here says feels like 13 deg yeah still no link sent, think they are out of their league atm re organisatiion stakes . looking less likely re what would have been 52hrs work. they have got some big contract or are about to get, so think they expanded quickly trying to get hold of people and lock them in. Met 2 more people have worked with before today at this place, one talked to is still working for other companies, will be looking at phone with interest for next few hours. To be honest am run down after down 80 hrs last week after 3 weeks off so wont be chasing them

@greenpea @TAB @BryanaCamp @MDT @Faith-and-Hope @Bill16 @Ant7 hello everyone. Hope you all having a good day. Just got home. Worked in the morning. Just survived it. Then clean up the water disaster from Saturday. We must have snapped the hot water main tap, as there is no hot water in the house. Getting plumber to fix. Don’t know how much will have to pay. Anyhow, feeling ok. Now chilling having a cup of coffee. Thanks for care and support. I think I need to overcome negative thinking , a lot from my upbringing to stay well .Have a great afternoon. Take care.
