Butti's Journey: A matter of loaf and death

Get that application in Butti
People & less milege both sound damm good to me.
Go girl.
First aid for the head sounds good.......
As does the NSD challange.
I am no 4!!
I've done 3 Beanie. Will do the budget today (probably in the pub :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:) and plan out when I think I can achieve more.
Had my ex-boss round last week for lunch. This is the one that told me to apply for my current post a few years ago, well actually said "I will be VERY disappointed if you don't apply"
'No......not the D word' I thought! I'm a sucker for the D word! She was very encouraging this time too.
I also spoke to one of my ex-colleagues who still works with my other ex-boss from the company. These are the two who left in December. She was also encouraging.
So TODAY I have submitted my application. :beer: and am now going to work out my budget for the month (in the pub :beer:)
In other money saving / not so money saving news aka. payback for being a good person and doing the right thing.
My friend I went on a fear of flying course with last month is going out to Italy to see her daughter. To save her daughter coming here in order to fly out with her I am going out there with her.
Long weekend in Lake Como - with no flights or accommodation to pay for :T:T:T:T:T:T
Was slightly worried about going out there with her as she is a bit stressy but now another friend is also coming out :j:j:j:j
Wonder if i can pop in for a cup of tea with George & Amal

Very very annoyed today.....infact positively angry.
The good news is I currently have a job.
I also have a CV which needs tweaking.
I am also doing therapy which means I can recognise I am very angry.
I wonder if my employer understands that there are pull factors encouraging you to apply for other jobs and push factors that encourage you to leave. Giving me all my work from 5 years ago despite me being in a new role is a VERY BIG push factor. Maybe they'll notice when I am no longer there!

I was dealing with all the houses 5 years ago. Now I am working on 4 sites and the schemes covering the original houses need winding up so it is an excellent idea to give that to me on top of my sites. They really seem to have developed selective deafness.Debt LBM (08/09) £11,641. DEBT FREE APRIL 2021.
