I'm not sure about it all making sense, but I'll keep plodding anyway:D
I struggled getting the gardening done yesterday, it was hot and I was so tired. However, my guardian angel took over, that's the guardian angel that got me four of my gardening jobs and the new job. She kept bringing me black coffee, chocolate and biscuits, told the last garden that I was not going to be able to finish it and packed me off home to have a couple of hours sleep before starting work in the evening.
It paid off as I wasn't quite so tired and it was a much quieter evening with the added bonus that I wasn't on my own. I had to say that it wasn't fair to leave me on my own on my first two shifts, I think the fact that I locked the wrong keys away helped my argumentEither which way, last night was much easier :T Today I'm doing a day shift followed by the evening shift, but they do pay overtime SIZE=1]cash in hand[/SIZE
On the plus side I will get all meals there today, so no food expenditure. There will be very little on my grocery bill next week apart from milk, fruit and food for Colin:TTotal debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
Total debt today: £0 - debt and mortgage free 29th November 2013 :T
