I have an interview and it was a quick turnaround so I am hopeful they are very keen. I only applied yesterday! Also I have someone visiting about the spare room. I haven't spent yet but I am going to buy cake and a drink at local cafe where I meet potential lodger, he is a young one too! (21).
I got paid today for the part of the month that I did work, I have enough for bills this month and the next. So all okay. I just now need the job, fingers crossed for the one on Monday!2 -
Good luck with both interviews Crazybee.0

Thanks @debtfreewannabe321 Lodger looks to be a sweety, he will probably come soon! He said he wanted the room, just the when to sort out. This could be a lucrative time for me for a change! especially if I get the job as well!

Today the lodger is moving in, I am expecting £500 this morning, I have already received part of the deposit.
I am trying to reach 2/19 No spends, there is no reason why I can't!
I am not sure what I will do today, perhaps reading (as I love the book I am on) and cross stitch, I have limited time to complete the cross stitch as it is for MDs Bday! I am trying to tell myself not to search for jobs, as I did a lot of this last week and I need a rest! But I probably will though!
I am prepped for the interview on Monday, it is a permenant role, so fingers crossed!
I may go out to read and get some fresh air since the sun is about, there is a public seat a little way from me I might wonder there! It will good for a little walk also.
Have a good dayXX5 -
