Excellent KP...not bad for just a phone call

Thanks
- a free call too!
No prep for interview so far but I have spent 2 hrs on the kitchen so feeling good about that. Prob with current job is I feel I am no better off than when I was at my last job which was a guarenteed 35 hours a week - I now do roughly 40-45. I end up spending more on food and "cook" more convenience stuff. No real chance or energy to follow the good advice on the old style board. Today I made a bit of an effort with steamed potaoes rather than chips and home made yorkshire puds only to find out the two youngest had been fed by my Mum :mad:.
Have a meeting with my boss Monday so will explain how I feel then plus I have a chance at the new job - not feeling too confident as I know I can do it but I have at least one tough competitor.
Spends wise I spent £3 on me earlier and weekly shopping delivery due tomorrow will come in circa £100 but there are a few bogofs and offers so hoping it will even out throughout the month. I have also got a few more lunch bits to curb my lunch spending.:j0 -
Try not to be nervous I'm sure you're perfect for the job.0

Thank you
Interview was yesterday, it went ok could have done better but then again could have done worse. No idea if Ive got it as there are 3 candidates of which one is very strong andf the other is a bitof an unknown. Shouldnt have the right experience but you never know. Not going to find out until Fri at the earliest and poss Monday.
Cash wise things ok aiming to try and wipe £300 extra off the debt this month by getting the od to £200. Will be tight as DD1 has a few school and guide trips and DD2 is now ready for her karate get up. Poor old DS dosnt get a look in at the mo - thankfully!!:j0 -
Hope you get the job but no point worrying about it...what will be will be.
Sounds like you've a hard month ahead juggling money stuff ..so good luck with that.I'm sure you'lldo it.0
