Yay Hubby has won a new job!!

I know this shouldnt be here but is a massive win to us.
Well today my DH has won a new job, with enough pay for us to no longer have to penny pinch. The only downside is it means he is away on the weekdays and I am home alone with a 8 year old, 3 year old and 19 weeks old kids.
Wins This Year - 2/1 Dog coat.

    My Hubby is away for weeks at a time, leaving me with 2 children, it'll be hard on both of you, but worth the financial reward & you will definately appreciate each other more, that's after you've got on each others nerves for half the weekend he's back:rotfl:
    Very happy for you all
    Comping again - wins so far : 2 V festival tix, 2 NFL tix, 6 bottles of wine, personalised hand soap, Aussie miracle conditioner :beer:

    Married my best friend 15/4/16 :)

  • Congratulations, and you really will appreciate your time more at the weekends. It could be worse - he could be in the forces and have to spend months at a time away fighting!

    How do you win a job? Was it like The Apprentice with Alan Sugar?
