Well I have 3 weeks or 9 working days left (subject to snow!) as a paid employee which is kind of scary. I know it will mean a lot of changes as my income will plummet as will only be from benefits & tax credits and any ad hoc Usborne money.
BUT I will not have the stress of juggling work pressure and the needs of my kids.
I have made an appointment at the Job Centre for my first day as unemployed. Just hope I don't get penalised for quitting my job....
So will need to start budgeting better (must get gas/electric bill down as has rocketed in this cold snap!). The nice extras in life will have to be several rationed e.g. coffees out, meals away from home etc. At least it should help my waistline as will have to cut back on naughties such as wine, chocolates and yummies. Then again I will have time to improve my home baking & cooking techniques! Just have to get my kids to eat the results...
Please let me know any really good budget recipes that I can try out!! Or any other top budgeting tips...
