    Good Morning everybody :hello: :hello:

    I must admit, I will be glad to see this thread back 'at it's normal 10 o'clock slot' - I thought I'd overslept. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Anyway - I'm not sure about 'spends' today - I'm due back at work, but I've been told to wait for them to phone me - if there isn't enough work I will have to take an extra day's 'holiday'. (I'm feeling a bit 'messed around' as I can't really do anything until I know. :mad: ).

    So I will have to report any 'spends' later.

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Mortgage-free Glee!
    Am going to be good today and try not to spend anything - things are a little tight this month - not because of Christmas but because I have switched mobile providers and so have had to cough up double bubble this month which is annoying!:mad:
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    I suppose it is no surprise that 'Home Shopping' will tail off after Christmas. It was absolutely manic in the three weeks before the holiday - one day I worked 16 hours - and, to be honest, it was quite a 'bonus' when they called me on Saturday to ask me not to work Saturday evening, but I have had to take 'holiday' as the whole store is quiet and they are 'unable' to offer alternative work. It's no secret that I'm not really enjoying the job, but I need to earn money and I 'knuckle down' - I have not taken any time off, I have even covered when others have been absent and I have not had any problems with my deliveries. I am beginning to think that they are taking advantage of my good nature.
