Hi CMD! Que tal?
Wow, everyone throwing their jobs away, wish I could do that!
So what's your plan Snow White? Please tell us, could do with some inspiration.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -
That sounds reasonable to me. As long as you can actually do the work at home in the evenings and can manage on a 3 day wage then that sounds like a really good option. Babies also seem to settle better with childcare when they are younger. We had a childminder for Seren one day a week from about 6 months to give me a bit of a break (I had PND) and she loved it. We've now put her in nursery 3 afternoons a week and we've had no problems at all with her (even though it's over 12months since she stopped going to the childminder) while a lot of children her age can suffer from seperation anxiety after being with the mother for so long.
Hi Starnac,
Am glad it sounds sensible and reasonable. If I do 2 long days I am only anticipating that I would need to do 3-4 hours spread over the rest of the evenings.Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Doing a car boot at the weekend (my first). I'm a bit nervous, am trying to channel the inner Del Boy but feeling more like Rodney. There'll be 3 of us though.
Yay - well done on being debt free
And double well done on resigning from a job you don't like. What are you going to do? Sounds like you are going to do something that you love. Exciting times ahead for you!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947
