365 days adrift .... land ahoy!

rising_from_the_ashes

So - really need to go to town at some point (not into town:eek:) but one of the retail parks as really need a few new clothes for work - but really can't be bothered today

It's looking not too bad out (bit dull & breezy but not too bad) so thinking I'll take Maisie somewhere for a nice walk

She's itching to go BUT waiting for something on the Ama*zon lightning deals to come up ...... 22 mins to go!

I find it a bit frustrating you can't see how much it's going to be reduced to - as I've been waiting ages for this one & I bet it turns out not to be worthwhile ....

Happy new diary, Rising

I am wondering what SoW stands for, is that your Spreadsheet?

Are you working now? I couldn't tell if you had to take time out from work..if i remember correctly you are/were self-employed?

EDIT- ahh, cross posted and you answered my Q about working

Yup, the SoW (spreadsheet of wonder) was devised by another member for the Frugal Living Challenge - I've used it for several years now - modified for my own needs ... it's fab!

Re working - I work for a LA (so not what you can call secure just now )

I had to drop a day for several months as I just wasn't well enough to be there full time - but sadly can't afford to do it any longer so have had to go back

It was great having the extra day off & I felt loads better (than I do now TBH) BUT if you take 20% off my take home pay - you'll see the books don't balance - hence why I'm in the mess I'm in now

It's really frustrating as I've worked hard to get everything sorted & pots up & running but hey ho ... that's life .... paddle harder

Thanks Rising!

I've ordered four lots, and if the fussy wee sod won't eat it then the local cat rescue place will be glad of it I'm sure
