    Oooooooh do you think you're about to be a Nana? That would be amazing? At least I think it would be.....Maybe they are getting married? Who knows....anyway...I hope it's good news for you hun....I'm sure it will be....

    Well Done for your earnings so far....that's great....and I hope you have a FABULOUS Evening off....

    I'm having Wednesday Evening off to have some fun....And some Downtime to make me feel like I'm not working ridiculous hours for nothing....Eventually I might get a whole day off but right now that's impossible....so that's okay....And I can live with that for the next couple of months until such time as I CAN take a day off once per week....I'll get there....Once the Debts have been significantly reduced and I'm paying back each Week consistently...

    Okay, so I'm only up to £10 so far this Afternoon...so I'm DEFINITELY not going to get anywhere close to £50....But hey, it was a nice dream....

    Now I'm just going to go for whatever I can get....and I'll be happy with that....

    As I said, I CAN tweak my Budget without too many problems so I'm not overly worried...Just going to stick to my Hours and see what I can get....

    It is FAR too early in the week to be worrying about tweaking budgets! That's like admitting defeat and its only Monday afternoon.

    What you should be saying is £10 is not what i wanted but i have the rest of the week to make up for it.

    it took me 3 months of working every day and all the hours I could to get back on an even keel, you know enough to pay the bills and the debts plus a little bit over for treats, after my life went t*ts up, and yes it was rubbish putting in all those hours but it got me back into the routine of treating it like a job and I enjoy my time off even more now. now I take a full day off each week and please myself what I do with it - could be having a lie in and a PJ day or going out and doing something just for me but its my day and makes me feel like ive got something to work towards.

    have a productive afternoon :)
