    Not too sure how interview went yesterday. It wasn't terrible, but I've had better interviews. Also the test beforehand was pretty hard! My gut feeling is that I won't get it, but will have to wait and see. They've said they'll let me know on Friday.

    In the meantime, I'm just chugging along. Today I need to pay my livery bill, and I'm also getting my hair cut which will be an added expense. Still in the + figures in my account at the moment but I think next week it'll get pushed over the edge. My OH does owe me money for food shopping though, so will get him to transfer that for me by the end of the week. Must get a joint account set up for that!


    Last interview tomorrow morning. I think I have a good chance, but I just need to not screw up!

    Didn't get the job... So everything hangs on this mornings interview. Trying not to stress too much but I do feel a bit sick!

    Thank you! I thought the one yesterday went really well so if I don't get it there's literally nothing else I could have done. I won't find out until Monday though...


    Did the weekly shop this morning (£28) and also paid my vets bill from Jan.
    That took me into my overdraft, but then OH paid me for the shopping so I'm back in the black (for now...)

    I'm on cloud 9 today, because I got a phone call this morning offering me the job. They were!so eager to have me they also upped the salary without me even asking. I'm so, so pleased.!I've bought a mini bottle of prosecco for me and my OH to share tonight to celebrate. Yippee!


    I had to get petrol first thing, but the prices had dropped again so it was a bit less for a full tank.!That'll mean I'm back in the minus figures, but I only have Thursdays livery bill, a food shop, and a meal out on sat pm to pay for.!


    With regards to the food shop, I got a voucher last time I went for 4000 extra points if I spend over £40.!I normally spend around £30, but thought I'd try and stock up on some store cubbard stuff that we use all the time to take advantage of the offer.
