Need to face the Music

Sunday...........the calm before the storm.....

Tomorrow I start my full time position, DS1 starts a new 6th form, DS2 goes back to school and OH is just back to work as normal.

Its going to take some planning especially meals wise as Mon, Tues and Wed I wont be around to make dinner.

List for today........

• sort out Ebay sales ready for posting
• plan some activities for students tomorrow
• flylady
• meal plan for week

I have decided to throw all the money I have saved towards Christmas at the debt this month as I am aiming to pay for Christmas from additional income such as matched betting/Ebay/Mystery shopping etc there is already over £100 in the extra money pot.

Managed to grab 2 mystery shops for Mon and Tues lunch times totalling £24 and plan to place another 5 things on Ebay during the week. Free £25 has come through so I hope I can claim about £22 if I find decent odds.

Meals for the week will be
Mon - Gammon & Pineapple with chips and salad
Tues - Chilli and Garlic chicken with Potato wedges and salad
Weds - Roast Chicken with pots and veg
Thurs - Chicken Fajhitas
Fri - Jerk Pork steaks with pots and veg

Weekends we can wing it as I have more time:rolleyes:

Just off for an hour walk then catching up with our neighbours.

I think I need to be Louise on wheels as it is Zed:D

Neighbours have kindly given us a socket timer so that I can stick stuff in the Moz and it will switch on to cook stuff for us returning form work.

I think that a slow cooker would be a good idea too but limited meals that we would all enjoy.

Stayed a little too long next door but it was lovely to catch up, now need to download MS brief for tomorrow and wrap the books ready for posting.

:rotfl:sorry I got distracted by a pile of noodles and some wet washing.

I am proud to announce that today I have been offered a full time contract as I was only 0.8 before..

This is the first time I have ever worked full time in my life:eek: at age 37 I think its about time too:rolleyes: I will still be doing a full day course on a Tuesday as planned and will be teaching 2 evening classes to make up for it.

Worked it out after tax to be an extra £300 per month and another £80 if I get a special pay award which I have sort of been promised. My first new pay will be Sept 30th so I can do some serious debt busting:j:j

Celebrating with a chocolate snack a jack and a wee glass of wine later:D
