I think the Universe has gone mad.
I've been told of another role last night that would really suit me, massively less stress, unbelievably close to home, standard hours, reasonable salary.
Given I'm not looking, this is really making me think.
Lets get back on track now.
Mr T ordered summer clothes for DS yesterday. G@p had an offer on the tops he likes, which are good quality and wash well, and he bought two pairs of shorts. On top of the offer, he had 15% off.
DS is paying 20% and us the remainder.
DS bought a dress and shirt from M&S 50% off.
Mr T had to sweaters and a winter shirt, all over 50% off and I've put them away for the winter.
I'd get get going.

Sounds positive Tilly. Things always happen/opportunities come along when you least expect them.

Be careful what you wish for. The Universe may deliver before you've even articulated what you want :TA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Morning,
We are all learning new routines at the moment. The long dog walk is going to shift to early evening with a quick run in the mornings.
Mr T had to buy some veg last night, we seem to have eaten double the amount over the weekend. All helps the 5 (7:o) a day :rotfl:
I'm on posting duty today, RM surveys x 2 to post.
Social week as well, plus hair cut and I'm looking forward to the weekend
By social, long walk with a chum so we will be losing lbs rather than £
Plus night out but drinks are on them this time
Mr Ts payday is the same as our mortgage payment. Money in and out on the same day. Must call the shuffle bank as they didn't pay me my £5 last month and there was no reason. Return shuffle will be done at the end of the week.
Busy day ahead but WFH and I've got a casserole in the SC in readiness for this evening.
More papers to sort in the study, I swear there's a paper gremlin who messes everything up.
Mr T was up bright and early for client meetings. It's so lovely to see my handsome Mr T in a suit, shirt and tie
I'd better get cracking
