:eek: over 4000 posts!

Good news from work - Just completed 10 years and was expecting a meal with my boss but get £150 instead whooohooo. That will probably be used for some more work clothes.

Bad news - at the same time he told me three complaints about me . I mean three! Ive never had that many in all the time I been there. I only admitted to making one mistake the others were rubbish but why drop them on me all at once?

At the flat with kids. OH setting up a second hand PS2 for DS as he was getting bored. £40 but should be worth it. Found an ancieint tv to use with it so no cost there.

Well didnt get job but they liked me enough to ask me to have another informal interview for a different department so :j

Brilliant KP...but why not let you know about the 'complaints' when they happened so you could put it right?
Nevermind, the £150 should make up for it
Luv Dizzy x

Yep £150 and a possible job offer on the horizon will soften the blow!

Thank ou guys

Checked the banks yesterday and added up what I owe, It wasnt pretty but I have it under control just need to keep on top of silly spends on groceries.

Still at flat. DD1 not talking to me because I grounded her for still being awake at almost 1 this morning. So huge paddy etc etc... PS2 working well for DS so hope the weather keeps improving so his friends want to play out. In fact Im going to kick him out to play at the end of the month regardless! DD2 has become a book worm currently readin g the fourth twilight...shes only 10!.. but already got through the third book.

Decided Im doing a big car boot when the season starts hoping there will be one in April.

I've got nothing left to sell . All e-bayed or given to local charity shop. Been like a woman posessed going round the house clearing all the excess out. Feels good though once it is done. I love being tidy. Such a shame it never lasts

Well 1 week to payday. I have been good on some spending fronts but not on others. Spent £17 online bodyshop 50% offer. DD1 has just grabbed one of the two all in one foundations I stocked up on. Shes at that spotty age. At least this is light and not going to be too heavy for her young age. She was eyeing up my conceler but there is no way she is getting her little mits on that bargain. The hair brush is popular too but typically the 50% offer ran out at midday . Also have £27.50 Avon to pay for on Monday.

Job "interview" went well but it was more like an introduction so waiting to hear if they offer me an actual interview. In two minds whether to move but had a really carp time at work this week I am soorly tempted to try pastures new.

Came home early for lunch today because I was tearful. OH was great and not judgemental for once.

I will have access to Lloyds money manager now so will play with that this weekend. Reading a thread shows it will take some work first but at least its something that might help me.
