Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Thanks Foxgloves
. I have been relaxing in the evenings and houswork can take a hike as far as I'm concerned when I'm this tired. I think the fact that I'm working with a supply teacher doesn't help as neither of us knows the children that well. But I'll definitely keep thinking of the money, plus it's good experience for me.

Just keep focusing on the extra money and of course the experience everything else can wait until things calm down. I hope you have a lovely relaxing weekend xI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

I was warned the new class was a difficult one, which may explain why the teacher has resigned due to stress (so we have a supply teacher) and the TA has gone part time due to stress! I'll keep thinking of the money.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Absolutely agree. However you get your protein, being veggie, make sure there's plenty of it, plus vitamins, minerals & so on. Eggs are great as a multi-purpose food (I know you already know !!). I just mean that having proper meals is worth the effort.foxgloves said:. Yes, you definitely need a restful weekend with some nutritious food & plenty of hydration,
And I also have found with certain jobs that visualising either the end product or the reward (if they're different) is helpful.
Have a good weekend xx6 -

you do so much. DH always cooks dinner when I do a full day at school, so he'll have to cook every week day next week. We're going to do an online food shop and DS1 empties the dishwasher and makes cups of tea for everyone. Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally
