    *waves to Kat* how are you??

    Bit of good news here from work. Had a meeting yesterday with HR and I've finally got a date agreed to start my mat leave PLUS my NVQ assessor has agreed to work a bit harder with me to get it finished before I leave. I was a bit afraid it would be left hanging over me but at least if it's finished if I decide I don't want to go back there then I can use the NVQ to get a job elsewhere :j

    Not much going on money wise. DH gets paid next week so will be able to pay some more off our debts then. I do need to check banks this morning and loan payment may have come out so that'll be good if it has. I can update my spreadsheet :j (i'm so sad :rotfl: )

    When are you due? That's good news that your NVQ assessor will move things along a bit quicker for you :) x

    1st November :D

    My assessor is brilliant. She's always set me more pieces of work than the others in my group cos she knows that I want it done and not dragged out but the company will only pay us for 1 1/2hr a month to meet which isn't helpful to me as I've only got 3 months left in work (inc this month). So she's agreed to meet with me more regularly if I'm happy to go to the office and not get paid for it. Which I am as it benefits me in the long run.

    How's things with you Kat?

    Good thanks :)

    Got two nights out this weekend and two extra shifts so a nice balance of fun and extra pennies :)

    Have you got any plans? x

    I'm working the weekend. DH is off so is taking DD to a BBQ at church on saturday (hopefully the weather will be okay). I will meet them there after my shift. Then on sunday DD has a birthday party to go to after I finish work so fun and games for DD (who incidentally at 3yo has a better social life than I do :o) and work for me :(

    I'm pretty sure most 3 year olds have a better social life than me too! :rotfl:

    Shhhhhhhhh! I just went into town to get a dress for my cousin's wedding next week and the maternity shop was shut so I thought oh well I'll have to pop back tomorrow when it's open. on my way back to the car I thought I'll just have a wander down to the bottom of town and look in the charity shops to kill some time. Guess what I found?? A lovely dress that fits and looks quite nice suitable for the wedding :j it needs a bit of altering but nothing major. so after planning on spending £20-£25 on a dress I got one for £1.50!!!!! bargain :money:
