Join the club Kerri on the weather and payday front, wish I could move my desk outside!
Ahh rubbish Jem, hate it when that happens, get all geared up and then it doesn't happen!
I was treated to a pub lunch with 2 friends from work, very sweet of him... my BF doesn't even break for lunch, gone are the days when we used to meet for a quick drink! Work pub quiz tomorrow, quite looking forward to it! xxxLife is too short not to love what you do.0 -

My officemate has had the window open, I know the sun is lovely and it's on his back but it's not quite that nice yet! Ah well he's gone home now so window is promptly shut again.
A report I didn't want to write is written, I have a video call with the team in the US in ten minutes, OH is texting me about moving stuff, looks like we have to move him first thing in the morning, make sure the bed is set up and then move me whilst he unpacks before he heads off to work at 5pm until 11pm. At least he's off work the next day so we can get lots more unpacking done, only want to hire the van for one day really and was hoping for an Ikea trip to pick up a folding dining table with chairs that fit in it for space saving, I'm sure we can manage thatEven if it's me and my brother after OH has gone to work.

I used to get paid on the 25th or the Friday before if it fell on a weekend, so it feels like I'm waiting a week longerI'm getting expenses paid back weekly though, so that's something
and hopefully I won't notice wages soon as I'll be sticking to my strict diet of £50 a week spending money plus work petrol money.

Hi I'm feeling alot more postive today (screw the council). I think because the sun is shining, I treated myself to chocolate eclairs :oand Breaking Dawn DVD
but I'm hoping to save £1500 and move out into a private rented house in July.
It is going to mean I'm going to not up the amounts on the Tax Credit overpayments like I originally planned but me and the kids will feel so much more happier then. £10 and £20 a month each is what they asked for that's all they will get
Anyway to update:
