Managed a NSD yesterday, took lunch to work with me and kiddies had packed lunches as well:).
Will be a spendy day today, have ebay parcels to post, must nip to Tesco to buy bread and potatoes, Ds has football so £3 to pay there as well.
Still no news about job :mad:, feels as though everything is being dragged out at the minute and i'm gettting utterly peed off with it all, wish i was in a position to just say s*d it and leave, but of course with all this debt its just not posible and the fact there are no jobs about at the minute, anyway will go and paint my face on and go in to work as bright as a button.0 -
Morning Pennywise, I hope you find out soon. Our situation dragged out nearly 4 months and I was so exhausted with it all by the end.
Have a good day x xMummytogirls x0 -

Morning Pennywise, the weather man has just told me hang my washing out today :j:T:D.
So ive put an extra load in!!!! x x xMummytogirls x0 -
MOrning, well it started off sunny but now the clouds have rolled in, so looks like tumble dryer is going on again.
Nothing much to tell really, no news regarding job, not alot left in bank account, child benefit due on Tuesday so at least that will tied me over untill payday, plodding on with surveys but none near paying out, Children have their school photos today but that expense will be added onto next months budget.
Counted up change jar last night but there wasn't enough of anything to bag up and bank,desperate to throw more money at B card.
Sorry that i'm not very chatty at the minute, just feel totally wiped out and down about job:(.0 -
Morning Penny
I have been reading your diary for the last couple of days and just wanted to say to you. Well done you have done so well. I know its not easy for you sometimes but you always find a way to cope. There are times when the persistent watching and scarping of every penny is soul destroying, but keep going. It will be such a weight of your shoulders when its all gone. Try not to worry too much. You will get through this
God bless:A
You are an inspiration to many on this site and I wish you all the best.

You are most welcome Penny (hope you dont mind me calling you this).
Life is not easy...its hard work some days more than others. We are all here to keep you going. Take care of yourself and dont worry too much. I dont know about you but I always feel a bit less stressed when I get a cry. Its a coping mechanism isnt it.
God bless:A Keep posting. :A"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream"C. S. Lewis

Hi Pennywise
Sorry I've not posted for a few days. It must be so frustrating for you not hearing anything about your job yet. You'd have thought that the powers that be would have had all the facts, figures etc ready before making the announcement, its not fair to keep you waiting.
Chin up, you do do absolutely brilliant xx0 -
Well had a bit more news regarding job, i have to have an 'informal' interview next week, looking like it will be Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning they are comfirming today, so now need to prove i can do my job:mad:.
Onto brighter issues recieved a paypal payment of £15 from surv£yh£ad, i had forgotten this was on its way, have withdrawn into bank account and it will be winging its way to B card once it hits it:), have also withdrawn a £10 Tesco voucher from valued op!n!ons, want to spend this weekend trailing through all the sites i'm with and making sure all surveys have been done, could be there for hours with Toluna.0
