Missy Moo's got a bit lost but with copious cups of tea, I'm finally finding my way!

grrr have realised, I was working out my new wages for the follwing month whilst still getting paid from old company and realised I will be on emergency tax for 2 months!!!! So will be even tougher to my loan off by the end of October!!!!!!! best get my thinking cap on and start as I mean to go on!

missymoo81

I'm wondering if someone can help me with this, how much is emergency tax? I earn £8 an hour before tax and work 30 hours a week.... I'm stuck. I dont know what the % is or what amount they will apply it to?

Any ideas would be very gratefully received.

wooo hoo just got my OU assignment back marked, and I got 68% which as I spent about an hour on it , really isn't too bad at all:T

Pippajo

I was told they dont do the emergency tax anymore, just use the standard 20% or whatever it is. Why not ask the payroll staff so you can be prepared?

Sounds like you had a lovely day, its great when you have some good finds like that and no parking etc.

Thanks pippa I will do just that. Am hoping on my little savings on peoples birthdays etc, I can make up the difference.

Just found my other OU pack in the garden!! must have missed the slip through the door!! Good job I found it, it is getting very dark i think it is going to chuck it down!!!

Have noticed that I don't have any chopped tomatoes, which is going to make my store cupboard challenge more difficult, which is never good, but I've just been outside and there is loads of tomatoes that have turned red so I will grab as many as I can.:T

My sister and youngest nephew are coming over tonight. I usually drive the 40mins to hers, but as I'm in my not using the car frame of mind, I asked her to come to me, and this way I get to sleep in my own bed and I can have a little drinkie, and we're not having our usual takeaway, instead we are having pizza from the freezer, yum yum.:D

CHICKEN UPDATE
Am finally getting 6 eggs a day from my chook chooks and they are a lot more tame, am liking them a little more and am not quite so scared of them :T

oooh forgot to say OH's mum gifted me some knitting needles and some wool!!! Am going to knit squeares for a new blankie, and when I'm a bit more oh fe with my knitting I am going to knit a tea cosy for my new (to me) much loved teapot

Have been rather productive in the sorting of stuff, when I was decluttering things a few weeks ago, I filled two bin liners of clothes which were to go to the charity shop. have gone through them all, and with the clothes pulled out of the cupboard yesterday, I have 2 bin liners of clothes to put on ebay!!

Have been inspired by Daffys thread and am going to try and amazon some stuff too, and have had a massive turn up for the books, have found loads of autobiographies that my mum gave me that she didn't want, I wonder how well these will sell? I'm never going to read them!! Will have a look into it tomorrow as sister will be here shortly.

I hope you all have a good night.

Well done on the assignment and the decluttering. Will be interested to see how you go with amazon

Thanks Jel.

Am in bed I know it's saturday night as well, my sister and nephew were both tired, so they have gone off to bed so I am happily sitting her on MSE again!! lol

Funny thing happened tonight, my sister was always the homely one, not make do and mend type, just always stayed in and didn't do much.Now she's getting divorced and is always out on the town etc, I feel we are so very different, and that she thought I was a little bit sad, with my excitement over my MS adventure and my love for my kitchen appliances etc etc...... Starting to wonder if I'm old before my time and whether i should be out and about doing 'normal' stuff a 29 year old should be doing........ Strange really as I felt so proud of my day up til now.

missymoo81

morning, am awake stupid early again.

Have bits and pieces to do today, cleaning, washing, ironing etc etc. best make a cuppa and get on and do it.

Hehe:), that's how I feel. Went to the cinema yesterday and afterwards we came back (around 8ish) realizing that we don't really know what to do with ourselves and might be too old going for drinks with friends (doesn't help that our friends are either only started to date so busy on a Sat night or are with kids)...I'm only 30 but feel older some days and younger on other:).
