Ya'all are the best!

Thanks for the advice Brooke, FP, TT and S-C; have decided to reject the offer though; a few too many uncertainties for my liking and I would've probably ended up losing a substantial amount of money (certainly all of my wage) on rent and paying back uni fees immediately. Will try and focus all my attention now on uni, and that does include a placement year in a couple of years' time, which is essentially the same thing for 12 months. Thanks for the advice though

So many decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving now, but I am sticking to my guns and waiting till after, so, today it begins! I can't handle the Black Friday shopping mess, so it's a good long weekend to get r done! First to get rid of the fall decorations though!

Black Friday Mess is happening here in the UK! This is the first year it's caught on and we have news reports of riots in the stores and police arresting people physically fighting each other for bargains! We don't seem to be able to handle it!

Reminds me of when Primark on Oxford Street opened, people were literally fighting over a pair of jeans!

I'm with you on this Brooke...

I agree with that completely. I never set foot in any store on Black Friday. I spend the day doing my holiday conversion. Orange and brown to red and green.

I go w the flow.
Usually try to be done by black Friday
Or I spend the time going through what was bought already and start wrapping
We have our church womans group "cut throat" pollyanna next week and work the week after
So i spent time getting it together today
Mall ??? Not for me

I've only caught up on this now and I think you have done the right thing TLR. I have seen so many people take a job over college in my time. They would say that they would finish off their degree later/at night/as a module, but then the working life took over and they never went back. Fine if you know the job would be permanent, But places close. Its good to get as many qualifications as you can. You are also used to studying. Its much harder to start over after 10 or 15 years! If financially and socially you are in a position to continue with your education, I think you are best going down that road. the job will come, and you will have a much better choice too when you have your degree wrapped up.

Good luck with it!
