i just got offered a job!! i never even applied!!
only thing is its only 14 hours a week so i wont get help with my childcare and my childcare is £5 more a week than what i would be earning without including the weekend care i would need.
if i could get that extra 2 hours a week i would jump at the chance without a shadow of a doubt!0 -
Adamantine - well done on the job :T Can you ask if you can do the 16 hours? I think (and someone else will probably know this) that employers have to give more benefits (holiday pay/sick pay?) if employees work over 16 hours, so they may not be keen
What was the job?
Welcome newbies & lurkers
I have done NO flyingDH has taken me out for lunch and then we went to Homebase for a light fitting for the summerhouse. We also bought a new loo seat (for downstairs) & a bolt for the front door (which doesn't fit & will have to go back
). I also did some paperwork this morning (planning, etc). These are all on my frog and/or toots list, so that is something I guess. DH has done all the ironing
(again!!)
I have afew hours free tomorrow, so I will try & rush through the lists then, if I don't attempt anything tonight (fell asleep at 9.15 last night! :eek:)
i will catch up later. Hugs and spoons to anyone that needs/wants them0 -
I've been today and got the tyres fixed but need to go back thursday to sort the brakes. Got DD part of her b'day pressie so it has been stashed. Got Rhys 3 new jumpers so i think thats him sorted for now. Boys got socks.....:rotfl:

Boys need dunked tonight too Need to go to the shop now to get something for dinner (i should really do an online food shop we've !!!!!! all in), then everyone will be fed when DD gets home.
Feeling so tired and can't explain why, i'm not up late at night, i'm not doing much through the day..:o but i'm still heading for a couple of hours kip when i can get it.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -
