I think that is to do with the misselling of the OD's. Unfortunately we weren't missold, we knew what we were applying for when we asked for it, so ultimately our fault.0 -
Happy new year purple! Hope you had a lovely time, sorry to hear dh is feeling unwell - my dh has ulcers on his esophagus so eats Rennies regularly, he does has a prescription for some other tablets from the gp but he doesn't like taking them all the time. It is better for him when not drinking alcohol and eats well and exercises.
Well done with getting to the gym and taking meals to work.

Morning,
DH and I did a brainstorming session over Christmas about who I/we both know in our industry who I can approach to enquire about a job. I have put a few feelers out and one I am hoping will come to fruiton (fingers crossed!).
DH has an interview for the promotion on Thrusday/Friday, unusual I know to have an interview but they have been interviewing outside of the company for the position so want to make it fair. Fingers crossed that DH gets this.
Brought my lunch with me today and yesterday, I am dermined that I will not buy my lunch this month.
DS restarted at Cadets lst night and is also signed up to bag packing next Saturday morning.
I've been thinking about the '20 Things in 2020' and I have a few ideas.
My main aims for 2020 are:- New job
- Reduce debts substantialy
- Be fitter
- Be more organised
Back later x0 -
Fingers crossed for you and you hubby
