Found you at last! Sorry Pap but I never seem to be online when you are. Good news re wage increase but you need to get that CV out.
Take care.0 -
Afternoon sf, Yes having a fab time, its quite nice really as I was getting really tired at work this past week but now I am full of beans and thats only after 2 days off :rotfl: I have been going to bed at midnight and back up at 7am rareing to go :rotfl: such a change
peb ~Yes I need to get my cv out and get a look in on all these jobs. I have 'remade' it but it still reads like pants... however once its out tehre I may be able to get some feedback etc.

Well the search for the game went down the pan, everywhere is all sold out :rolleyes: ah well it wasnt meant to be. I shall wait till payday now, I am tempted to order it on play but I still want some money in the bank before payday so I wont do thatI did however spend £30 in hobby craft, yes it sounds a lot but I got bag fulls. Including fabric, beads, boxes, paper, stickers, thickers and ribbon. Now put that with what I spent the beginning of the month (not including my 'budgetted stuff') I have only spent £50 now 'usually' this is £150+ by the time I put postage etc on the online orders so this month has been great. I have also 'earned' £20 this month so its all good. Next month I would like to half that again to less than £25 (excluding budgetted stuff) I think this is sooo possible... just need a bit more will power :rotfl:
so that ends todays ramballings ~ unless I come up with some more later :rotfl: Have a sunny wednesday :j0 -

Is it Mario Kart you're after PAP? Do you need it with the wheel? I can keep an eye out for it for youNo longer using this account for new posts from 20130

Taka ~ Yes feeling over the moon this week, loving it, maybe the sun and not being locked away in the dark of work is why?
Gem ~ Yes mario kart, it comes with one wii wheel anyways, the cheapest I have found it so far is £35 in argos and on play. Play have it in stock so will prob go with them unless I can find it cheaper, the problem is its quite a new release so its not going to drop thats much. However the other game I was going to order from tesco with wii fit for £20 I have found in asda for £15 :j still want it cheaper though :rotfl:0 -

£50.00 ~ Argos
£4 ~ terr
Totals = £667.00

Busniess acc should have £160 in it, with that above it will rise to £138.63. I will then wait for my tax bill to come through and adjust the account if I need to pay tax or add more into the account. The argos I said I wouldnt do, this month I cant do it. Once mum pays me its to go straight off the argos card. I am not saving for Junes stamping kit (that I said I will up there) because come June I wont have to pay out to my busniess/argos so that money is hidden in that. Once I have brouht my wii game that leaves just over £50 for the month excluding my £10 a week money. Simple
As you can see I am working in 1/3rds this month so each sub section should have £250 spent on it. Seems to be working well. Lets see if this time next month I am saying the same thing :rotfl:0 -
Looks good with some to spare
It should work out fine. How are you by the way?

yes definatly, hopefully June I will hit over £1k savings... cant wait :j Me I am ok, dreading work on tuesday (i have been off since last monday on holiday). Dont think I can face them, I have been happy and fine all week but knowing monday is just around the corner and then tuesday is filling me with dread. I just feel like not going back. I guess I am on another downer, not too good, hopefully I will be fine come monday0
