Regaining all that time from the commute, and paying off all that money so quickly - fantastic! You're really on a roll, this new place suits you

smallholdingsister

It really does!

Got home to find the oven had been on all afternoon. Thanks DH.

The WM is not draining...blocked up with hay probably!

Well done on the new job, and in a lot of ways time is worth more than money.

Yes, the shorter commute will transform your day. Xx not long now!

smallholdingsister

Oh yes! I am leaving my school with a post they cannot fill. Literally no applications, not even unqualified people.

Made £25 tutoring yesterday. DD1's parents' evening was successful apart from Maths.

Her English teacher looks like Benedict Cumerbatch (swoon).

Clearly a sign that it wasn't a great job!

Tutoring is my favourite way of making money, it's so much better paid than my day job and it doesn't feel like work 90% of the time.

smallholdingsister

I was offered another tutee today but they want me to go to them. I just don't have time for that.

Hello. Parents' evening again. Exhausted!

Secret_Saving_Squirrel

So many of them at this time of year. Don't think parents realise we have to go to all of them!

Our school seems to have put them all in Autumn term.

Crazy busy weekend coming. Aarrgghhh!
