    Hello folks,

    Thanks to LaE for starting the thread - what is hubbys business ? Can he work part time (outside of normal work hours) and get another part time paid job ???

    Busy day for me - work is going crazy at the moment....so busy but I am counting down till I move. :o:o. It doesn't help that I was 20 mins late for work - which meant that I didn't have time for breakfast or lunch

    I met hubster in town today after work.....we are officially broken......we didn't see anything to buy (we can't even treat ourselves any more)

    Today I have/will:
      • checked online banking
      • swept the excess from my current account to my credit card
      • checked my investment and re-invested
      • updated sig with new totals
      • bought a smaller coffee at work
      • read papers online
      • charged my phone at work via the pc
      • bought cheapst breakfast and lunch
      • dinne from stores
      • need to transfer my quidco money to my account
      • need to look at films that hubster and i can watch for our anniversary
      • need to take my measurements (wont be pretty)
      • need to pot change from my purse
      • need to have a quick shower
      • need to make lunch

      Think that's my lot - absolutely shattered :eek:

      Take care all

    • Evening everyone

      We have had a very busy day, thus why I am posting so late. Today has been spendy and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and it was all budgeted for. Whilst they were having fun I caught up with some other HE parents over a hot chocolate, which my friend treated me to :-D

      Today has been very good for my mental health.
