    well decided to stick with current job they have offered me full time so that means no travel time ect plus 2.5 hours extra wages which i think i will lose to tax and pension but im currently travelling 1.5 hrs for a 5 hr friday so really only 1 hr extra . got hours to suit and they are happy for me to change in a years time when ds goes to high school . now need to hand in notice to 5 hr job which i will be sad to leave .

  • The things we do for money hey? Things ok, got really down in the week and cried for hours but it cleared the air and feel tons better now. Need to stop worrying over money and chill out. Ebay is going well and have some teaching in September so ok. xx
