    Hi Having a few rubbish days..Payments have still done through so on the debt front all good :j..But am trying to get another job closer to home, and am applying and applying and I seem to never even get an email saying thanks but no thanks...grrr... I know its not me but wish someone would make me feel that I am employable..

    Anyway jammie dodgers are helping see me through it :rotfl: We have had them ages, but not anymore...

    On a positive..I am following the use everything up in your freezer and cupboards menu plan..and just wondered, if I use everything up then I would have to go over my weekly budget to shop and replace it all..am I supposed to do that? Or did I miss chapter 2 where there was a solution...doh..I really do need to pay more attention..
