    Just a quick one.


    Hubby got the job :D with the company that ex-director going to AND he got a payrise too :D:D plus he starts tomorrow.


    Went around the shops but bought Christmas pressies, so can take them out of my budget nearer Christmas time, once my lovely pots have filled up :D


    Potted some coinage too, so happy day today :)

    FANTASTIC NEWS PMO2!!!! You must be so proud of hubby. What a relief, and a payrise, very nice!
  • Great news PMO2. Things are looking good xxx

    Excellent news - well done hubby! Must be a relief too.
  • Good morning,


    Just a quick one before I head off to work.


    Hubby has started his new job today, seemed very strange seeing him in a suit, but for the time he's office based I'll make the most of it ;)


    Not much to report moneywise. I did a brief top up shop and got DH some NicAssist gum, this is out of the weekly budget so doesn't count...so am aiming for a NSD today :)


    The non drinking is going ok so far, up to 7 days now, feeling less tired but still not as energetic as I'd like.


    Washing up done this morning, just dinner to sort when I get home this afternoon...homemade beef and chorizo burgers :p


    Have a good day everyone x

  • Fab news about the job, well done to your hubby!

    I know what you mean about men in a suit, mine went out to work today, (he works at home sometimes) and I was like ' oh hello!!!)

    My diet too is non existent, tomorrow or Friday is my D day!

    Thanks for the link, am definitely going to make those at some point soon. They sound yum!
  • Burgers made and in the fridge ready for later, its says to make them into four in the recipe but I made them in to six as I figured four would be too much to eat.


    Spoke to hubby and he seems to be enjoying his new venture, he's not done a lot today but as I said to him its his first day at a new company so it's bound to be a bit quiet to begin with. Also sounds like the old company has finally gone seems the LL has locked the office up due to non payment of rent...whoops!


    Moving on....I'm declaring a NSD for me today and I've been good diet wise too...I was tempted to go to Tesco's for food when I came out of work but had a corned beef and pickle sandwich at home before walking to school for pick up.


    Happy Day today :D
