Morning Everyone, long time lurking to these threads so just thought I'd finally join in..

Todays payday so upto now I have:

• Paid off CC... Finally!"
• Sent some money to my boyfriends account for the house deposit (he's a better saver than me)
• Checked my online banking to see where everything going this month.
• Had breakfast, but it isn't a NSD day

To do:

• Have lunch.. Fridays are usually paid for by the boss.
• Clear my desk, without getting stressed.
• Have a NSD night, stay in & watch some telly or something else mind numbingly numb.
• Check for any surveys if my lunchtime lets me.
• Finish off the tin of roses :rotfl:

Have a lovely day everyone!"

Morning everyone,

TGI Friday!!! Seems like such a long week despite actually being a shorter week...hmm how does that one work?

Stitchy - Sorry to hear you ended up in tears because of your job I hate it when that happens...on the bright side at least doing what we hate means we can pay the bills (just about, sometimes!) & have the odd treat. Have you tried looking elsewhere?

• Spend at least 10mins going over my tkd terminology
• [STRIKE]Dinner from stores & meal plan[/STRIKE] (Also going to do part of a 101 item - try 5 new foods so today I am trying omelette!)
• [STRIKE]LSD[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Pop to Tesco & must stick to list![/STRIKE] (See Jan grocery challenge in sig)
• [STRIKE]Log calories on foodfocus[/STRIKE]
• Do some kind of exercise at home or better still get running again
• [STRIKE]Make use of free coffee/water at work as usual[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Brekkie, lunch & snacks brought from home as usual[/STRIKE]
• Look at Martin's email again at home so I can go through things properly

* Chase paypal for removal of restriction of access to account - I've provided everything they want but they are still not removing restrictions:mad:

Hi there, sorry to leap in univited! Just thought I'd mention that I went round in circles trying to keep Paypal happy and nearly sent myself insane. I telephoned them in the end and explained that I had sent them every document that I could and that I simply wasn't going to use them anymore. The person I spoke to was very helpful and removed the restrictions there and then - hope that works for you...

I am constantly looking, but I work a nine-day fortnight which I want to keep if possible. I care for DGD on alternate Wednesdays and that is important to both me and DD.

I wouldn't mind if I was paid a decent living wage without having to worry where the rent will come from or if I can afford to eat. And working for a nice person would also help. But hey ho, I was unemployed for over eight months by the time this job turned up so I literally took the first thing offered, and it's better than getting no JSA at all!

Last weeks local paper had four vacancies and only two the week before so there's not a great deal out there at the moment. I really want to start my own business but don't have the support from DH :mad:

Oops, long rant - sorry!!
