hi Fay, back officially from holiday as am back on MSE.
we had a lovely time, relatively frugal but not excessively so and we had a lovely time. Had a great day yesterday as it was our first wedding anniversary, went out for a nice meal to finish of a normal pottery day but at least it was a day we spent together. OH was terrible at suggesting what i could give him as a pressy so i made him an exploding box with lots of messages and stuff in it including a pop out heart. i've also told him i will get him a couple of days fishing at our local lake when he wants to go.
OH had his interview today, i was a jittery nervous wreck and he was very chilled about it. I think something went wrong with that equation somehow! He's been told he should find out within 2 weeks, but he's made some more decisions about his current job if this one doesn't materialise.
Just done the accounts for the month and updated my signature, well over half of my total debt paid off now and over 2/3rds of Diavolo paid off. Can't see how i can pay more than the normal monthly amount and my 'basic overpayment' this month to Diavolo but it's still a lot of money to pay off so i shouldn't grumble, i just want to clear it as quickly as possible and 12 months early just isn't good enough.
It's going to be tricky this month, going to have to only spend on petrol and groceries, and even groceries are going to be cut back. OH went freezer diving this arvo and it's obvious we only need cat stuff and fruit and veggies for most of this month so fingers crossed we'll be able to stay on the straight and narrow this month.


sorry to bore everyone, but i've got a weeks worth of chatting to chat up on lol

LT you need a few of these

*************
Well done Lady - pah to the Diavolo

Bother - its gone to bever.com, which is a legit website selling medical aids - blood pressure monitors and nebulizers. The mystery deepens.
