I received news of one of my goals very recently.  I completed law school and now have a training contract with a law firm.  Not too easy to come by in these straitened times, so I feel very lucky. I leave my job at the end of July and begin work almost straight away.  My DH has made me an appointment with his tailor to have two new suits made.  My children have bought me a briefcase.   They all think  that I should look like a "proper lawyer".   Well, all that hard work, getting up early/staying up late and cramming has paid off.  Never let anyone tell you that you are "too old" to start a new career.  Hopefully, when my training contract finishes, and if I'm successful, The Authorities will let me loose on the unsuspecting public.  ROFLOL.

The other goal I have, is to learn Microsoft Office thoroughly.

At the moment, all I want to do is sleep. I feel as though I haven't slept properly for a year.
