    woohoo well done on the overpayments. It all adds up really quickly. You'll make that error in the spreadsheet balance out soon enough.

    Thanks Smlsave, how are you feeling? I will pop over to your diary.

    DH had informal interview for a new job today - better hours (37) and better conditions but a drop in salary, not too much as works out a better hourly rate. We should save on nursery though and tbh i just would like him at home more. I think DD would too, some days she does not see him at all and that's really starting to bother him now. Hopefully know if it's his week before christmas. Just need to clarify if they open christmas day. I have to work christmas so it's not feasible for us both to be in that position.

    Got some surveys to do but going to watch a film with DH instead.....the pennies can wait until tomoro.

    Had £40 off DM so can send another OP - woohoo, they are really adding up this month! Who'd have thought December would be this good? Almost at £40 on OnePoll so that can be sent as soon as I get it too.

    Went to doctors and he confirmed I have reactive hypoglycaemia, i was unwell again in work today. He simply advised that I eat complex carbs and he didn't think anything sinister was causing it.

  • Good that its nothing sinister. Watch out for baked potatoes, they have a weirdly high GI.

    And interesting news about DH's job.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    Thanks grateful, I am going to keep an eye on them. Fortunately he said it is not a predictor for developing diabetes. Have done a couple of surveys tonight but a bit surveyed out now!
