QOD that is wonderful sleeping from S. What a difference to a couple of weeks ago. Well done you. I hope DP is fully appreciative of the work you put in and the success you have had.
Money is such a stressor but if you two can talk about it then it helps to keep it from overwhelming you.
Well done Mr Dizz and yay for the next lot of funding Mrs Dizz how very exciting!
LOTI I am glad DH is helping out more and that you are benefitting too.
Well I just had an interesting phone call.
A lady I used to work for now works for someone I used to work with and just phoned me to tell me they were looking for an account manager and that I would be perfect.
It is pretty close to my perfect job in my old career.
But - always a but.
It is in London and it is immediate start contract until the New Year when it would be permanent.
Pay dependent on the person but I should be able to negotiate towards the top end.
If I am honest my gut feeling is that it is impossible to move Izzy all over again. I wouldn't be isolated in London as I have lots of friends there lots of whom are mums.
But it would mean moving and putting her into full time day care.
But I have just checked the entitled-to site and I would still get some help with child tax credits and housing benefit, so maybe not unmanageable.
The thing I really don't know about is childcare costs etc.
Plus I would have to have her in childcare for around ten hours a day - it seems an awfully long time. I know we would both get used to it, but thinking about it makes me sad.
But you know the job thing is the thing that worries me most about the future. So perhaps I shouldn't dismiss this immediately.
I'm confused
