    I've got some lovely white chocolate bubble bath - but once i'm in a bath I get bit bored. Have to crank up some music, have glass of wine or a book! BUt that might be a top idea could do with a soak and chill myself

    Morning all,

    Feeling a bit better this morning after falling out with DH last night....

    Having discussion about his mobile phone this morning and just trying to get it into his head that Im taking a paycut with new job (although its short term) and he's not earning as much as he used to either...... I just wish the lightbulb would go off in his head....

    Am really really tempted to work out all the household bills again and show it to him and show him what his half is, and then what his debt payments are and what my debt payments are, and perhaps if he saw he doesnt earn enough to even pay his half of the bills he would be a bit more pro-active.... but then another part of me thinks it'll fall on deaf ears.....

    awww bless you!
    Whats your cut off date on your payroll?
    Ours used to be the 15th of each month.....
    Anything extra that you did wasnt paid till the next month then.....

    DH is still doing my nut, nothing I say ever seems to sink in! Its really bugging me lately. I think mainly because he just doesnt really pay any of the bills. Im going to write out everything thats joint for definite now, and show it to him.... probably wont work but at least I will know that I've shown him....

    lol!!

    well the way our payroll works is you get paid your standard hours at the end of each month so normal contract hours worked in january get paid end of january, but overtime and enhancements worked in december from 1st to 31st get paid in january, if that makes sense, i'm more mad because i still have 4 hours to be paid I worked in november which got missed last month arghhhhhh

    Just trying to make some money doing slice the pie and have withdrew my scratch card earnings trying to get them all in the bank so I can sort out how much I can pay to everyone.

    ohhh i see, thats proper pants then!
    Speak to someone soon as you can...

    went in to new work today, the girl who started alongside me left tonight, doesnt like it, all very weird, felt really sad for the people who run it..... they put a lot of time and effort in, and it got thrown back at them...
    Also means I need to step up my learning so I can cover it for as long as possible but now im there all day, it shouldnt be a problem.... and much easier to pick up when your immersed in something.

    Packed up my lunchbox ready in the fridge, just need to remember to take it! LOL
    Need to get to bed early as well for mega early start...
