Carrot cake in the oven

Hey you
Just caught up!! Have to say, Jellytot borrows my shoes all the time, but it isn't the same effect having a 2 year old slobbing your trainers around the house shouting 'Mummy shoesssssssssssssss'I would be very proud, and a little disturbed if she ever wanted to borrow anything from my wardrobe.
sometimes even I am scared of the things I have left the house in. :eek: :rotfl:
Did you find your elusive cash moneys? I'll buy your blouse
So proud of you, for the interview, but also for the way you are handling it with such style. INOD seems like a pro interviewee. Most of my job interviews have descended into bubbly chats. I am often told I am 'easy to talk to' and my last interview, I spent 2.5 hours in there, when it was supposed to be 45 minutes and basically chatted and chatted! LolI talk when I am nervous!
Hope you are having a lovely evening. I am trying to figure out a new set up for my disjointed new 'computer' since I now have a separate monitor and the screen tucked underneath the keyboard on my laptop :rotfl:
Must try that quiche. My nannys favourite meal has always been to break two eggs onto a plate, grate some cheese over the top and add some slices of tomato and then pop the plate in the oven for 10-15 minutes. I loved it as a kid.
Hugs to all xx

Hiya Lilty.
Don't know where today has gone. I'm still swotting up for tomorrow, but not in a stressy way. Im really interested in this job. Got to be a good sign. 👍
Lol to your scary clothes. I've got 2 rails of scary clothes that I need to part with, but can't bring myself to. Must add that to my list of hurdles to get over.
Nah, haven't ebayed yet. Perhaps there is something on the rail for you and ebay. :rotfl:
Your poor laptop - proud of your sticky back plastic blue peter efforts though. We must figure out if we can get that discount for you. Don't want you having it registered to me and not being able to get your warranty etc when needed. Pain that have to be registered now, but you must try the phone call thingy first just in case.
Like the eggs dish, how simple but delicious. Mind you I love cheese omelettes and could eat them everyday. Must grate a load of cheese tomorrow. The quiche must be made this week, thanks to Ratty's son 🐭 for reminding us.
I keep forgetting how far I've come and how much I've got planned ahead. It's all exciting stuff, moving to live near you, DD growing older, studying, potential new job, great money saving efforts and very good debt-buster General efforts. If I could get his job, theres a real potential for a fab future. Scary but exciting. Keep thinking that the safest bet would have been to have stayed put and not gone to carp job, but you live a nd learn and maybe something more will come out of this.
Hope you are well Lilty. Take care of yourself and that lilttle Jellytot.

Will be thinking of you tomorrow
Huge huggles and good luck for the interview and the start of a fab future for you all. Also you must come to live near meHahaha!!
P>S I got all the way to the delivery page on that discount, £798 instead of £849 for the one I want which is excellent so thanks for the pointer. I didn't pay in the end. Decided to be a smarty pants and try and make as much money towards it as possible by the time my bond kicks out. 50 days today. Can I make £800 in 50 days?
Lots of love and luck. Have a good nights sleep xx

Thanks hon. It's appreciated.
£50 sounds okay, but I'm sure I got £200 off, although hang on, if you go through the uni site you get the free warranty which I think is normally £150ish, so maybe that's what I'm thinking of.
I'm sure you can make £800 in 50 days - once you sell my blouse you've just bought - it's in great demand :rotfl:

Hi Supersaver, I will be thinking of you today and envisaging you showcasing your talents at the interview. It is great that you feel excited at the job prospect, because they will likely sense that.
As for staying with a 'safe bet', deep down there was a very good reason why you didn't. I don't think you are a 'safe bet' kind of gel, more a go-getter, trend setter, be true to yourself xx.Training Loan - £1300.00/£1,500 (13%), Halifax CC 300.00/£925.00 (31%), OS Weight loss 7.0lb/24lb (29%), Extra inc Nov £220, Dec £532.00, Jan Ex Inc target £200.00.

Like white feather said, just use the time to show how brilliant you are. Also, if you are stuck for a work based example for something, don't be afraid to use a real life one. There ain't nothing that they could ask that you haven't dealt with. Just be positive and be yourself. You'll be great.Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

OMG!! I got the job!!!! Sorry for the delay in replying guys. I had a call late this afternoon and haven't stopped since. I'm in a bit of a whirl. All dependant on good references, which I am not worried about. Its permanent, full-time and they are just so lovely and best of all it will stretch me so I just know I won't be bored.
Thanks so much for all of your support, I couldn't have done it without you. I am going to have a big glass of wine and a lovely sleep tonight.
