Loving the 2013 positivity ladies!! Here's to our 2013 bfps.

Oh I am so jealous of your break Ibelieve! I finish on 21st and am back on 2nd Jan so not a bad break but not as good as yours.

I have done all of my Xmas shopping except for DH. He is the awkward one ...

I break 2/3pm 24th and then back on the 27th!! It totally sucks but because I started in May I just did not have enough holiday and it is year end too so the busiest week!!

I love having Christmas off!

Sorry Ladies, I know what you mean though, last year I was off from xmas eve and back on the 27 not fun at all! Laura, what do you do that you work on Christmas day?

I also lovvvvveeee Christmas, I decided I am doing personalized gifts its original and a lot less expensive! Will sleep in tomorrow and probably go shopping later to avoid some of the rush! DH birthday next week so that is top of my list, his birthday gift will have to cover Christmas as well !

Still no AF but trying not to let it get to me, will contact my gynae next week.

In the meantime Im busy clearing my desk trying to remind myself not to forget my pot plant

Very worth-while job Laura, I hope you get to have a lovely break at another time and that you are appreciated for working on all those days.

Wow that's a great job Laura - and like you said, someone has to do it on Xmas day! How long are the shifts?
Do you get extra pay considering Xmas day and Boxing Day are bank holidays?

I'm lucky because I work in a school - break up next Friday and have two weeks off! Best thing is, hubby works on a naval establishment and they close for two weeks too!!!

12 hour shifts either 0700-1900 or 1900-0700 - bit of a mare. And nope, no extra pay. Although if you're not scheduled to be in Xmas eve, Xmas day or Boxing Day and you do overtime you get a £250 bonus... So I could be sitting next to someone who is earning three times what I am. Go figure...


No plans for the weekend Twag. How about you?
