    Paid money into the bank and that actually put my account into the black for the first time in months.

    Made tuna pasta for tea and there is enough for tomorrow as well.

    Didn't go fishing as I am a bit rough from last night and it is to windy anyway. That is a saving of £23. I worked like a Trojan all of last week so it was my treat to myself for doing two extra nights work.

    I am not drinking tonight either as I have a double shift tomorrow and don't want to be dieing all day. The beer in the fridge will do me next Sunday as well so I won't need to buy any. Another saving.

    My halo will likely slip later and I will get an Indian Takeaway. Might not though not sure.

    :A :A Have a curry instead of the fishing - your Halo will still be intact:D :D :A :A

  • It nearly slipped earlier as I was going to go and get a double nougat off the ice cream van. I resisted temptation:D

    Probaly will as I have been so, so good this weekend.

  • Hi guys, having an off day for one reason and another. Problems on both tube lines I catch to work today (reason to cycle tomorrow), forgot to take laptop into work for presentation, and all made worse by the fact that OH kept me up for 2 and a half hours last night after I went to bed for an early night becuase he was drinking with our alcoholic flatmate - how do I get him to realise he's becoming an alcoholic as well. Have been really antsy with him all day, but the worst thing is that he isn't drinking tonight (becuase the flatmate is out so he doesn't have temptation). Alright, thanks for letting me get that off my chest!

    Today I have
    - cooked dinner from storecupboard using things that needed to be used up
    - surveys
    - set up a new quicken account to track the house bills and household costs (all bills are in my name and I pay for all household stuff but up until now have not kept track of where it all goes!)
    - tried to put organic veg box to fortnightly instead of weekly becuase we are just not getting through it all but will have to do it after tomorrows delivery

    hmm, thats about it, gonna go off and do my pilates now (or look at the free DVD that came with my new ball for something different), then try for another early night and see what happens!
    Hope everyone had a better day than me, sorry about the whinging!

    Hi guys not posted today as i have had a lot on my mind, what with deciding to hand my notice in. Did try but the SENCO was off today and the head is very scary (he's the one who walks by me and ignores me all the time) and when i wanted to give him it at the end of the day, he was busy as usual! Might wait till Wednesday when the SENCO is back, but have definitely decided to do it. Sorry for taking over the thread.

    Aussie, sorry to hear your fella is being a pain in the bum, just think about how your going to plot your revenge:whistle:

    Have been looking at the job sites and papers and have phoned up about several, its really annoying though, as people don't seem to answer phones these days and you end up leaving loads of voice mails, of which several haven't got back to me from last week:mad:

    Have done another audit tonight so am off to type up that report, tea was from the store cupboard, have picked up another mystery shop and have completed filling in a job application form.

    Have a great evening everyone and will speak to you tomorrow.
