I start a course on security on Monday coming. I will have to travel up to Glasgow to attend the course which means a very early rise. Nothing I can do about that though gaining the security badge will open up more job opportunities. That can only be a good thing. I wasn't expecting to get on a course so quickly. I was just lucky that the course was starting on Monday. So anyways my advisor booked me a place. Now I just need to hope that I can pass the course.
Magz and me were out cutting the grass this week. It is that time of year when the weeds and grass shoot up. All week has seen me pulling weeds from my tubs as I look for the shoots from the seeds I planted. Sadly only my onions have come up so far. I supposes I am showing my inpatients as it has only been a little over a week since Tammy and I planted everything. That is other than the tomatoes. With it being such a great week weather wise I was hopeful. Maybe too hopeful that is. I will just have to give it a bit more time.
In Elite Dangerous I am over fifteen thousand light years out of habited space. My aimless wandering is slowly taking me further all of the time. I have spotted a few more nebula that I might start heading towards. They are over five thousand light years sideways headed across a less dense part of space between the arms. I'm not an astrologer or even know a lot about the positions of the stars. Not that I'm not interested in that sort of thing. I just never learned that kind of thing. Like many of us I have stared up at the night sky and wondered. I just never really had more time than that with life happening all around me. Well I can still play my game and dream.

I had an interview for a job on Thursday and another this Monday. Monday is going to be a busy morning as I also sign on then. The interview is in Glasgow in the morning so I should make it back in time to sign on. It will probably mean turning up to sign straight after getting back into Killie from Glasgow so I'll be dressed up as if I were on my way to a business meeting rather than claiming benefits. I don't believe I have ever been to sign on in a suit before so it will be a change I suppose.
I was taken aback to get called into job interviews with Christmas being only a couple of weeks away. I would have thought that most of the seasonal work was taken. Then again you can never tell these days. With security being on everyone's minds with all the terror attacks and threats of it happening businesses are looking for more protection. Not that adding more security operatives will really prevent such things. No, it is more to give the general public more peace of mind. Regardless though I need to get a full time job. Sadly the one this week past was only part time and as needed. Which could mean anything really. Not ideal when you have a family, even if they are grown. Still beggars as they say.
