Well I am officially back in employment starting December so I can now stop my resignation diary as I get ready to move on to my next job. This means that I will be unemployed for five days (after my holiday pay is used up). It is only a two month contract as I am still undecided what I really want to do career wise and didn’t want to jump straight back into the rat race. I haven’t had any amazing life revelations yet regarding my career path – watch this space! On the household front we are continuing to try to trim our finances – our goal is to keep under what we spent in the corresponding month the previous year and so far we are managing to meet that challenge. It will be a little more difficult of course in the following months until I get back into a permanent career. Yesterday and today was a day of Xmas and birthday shopping with a list after a session of budgeting and planning – I even have some of the birthday gifts for next year sorted out. We had a great Xmas last year sticking to our budget and planning ahead and it was the Xmas that people most talked about and used our gifts in the months following. Hopefully we can pull it of again this year.
