"It's Quiet" Said Rhubarb
"Too quiet" said Custard (obscure 1980's references r us...)
Things have gone very quiet on the financial front. Money is pouring in from Ebay (I made £140 today...), and the next batch of DDs are supposed to go out on Wednesday, which is do-able provided Paypal does its thing on time. We've not even had any nasty letters for a few days... Which of course, me being me, makes me nervous. There is only one company which could potentially get mean, and that's to the tune of about £90, so it could be a hell of a lot worse. But still, bad luck has dogged us lately, and I'm not buying this current run of better luck...
Good weekend was had by all though. Very chilled, and with much reduced stress levels it almost felt like we were back to normal. I've been wondering lately what life might actually be like once we're both bringing in a regular paypacket, and both are secure in our jobs (i.e. after May 31st). I think it might be good. It's also worth mentioning that my 6 month probationary period ends on 6th June, and I get a pay rise (to the tune of about £500). Good things in the offing (fingers crossed, touching wood, praying on holy relics...)!
If nothing else, I might be able to take the book off hold. I haven't written a word since the whole money-meltdown happened, and am hoping and praying that this writers block will subside once all the stress does. Bloody hope so, anyway!
Oh, and one other thing: I bought my bikini on Sunday, using leftover Debehams vouchers from the wedding. Not as hideous as expected (the sight of me in it, not the bikini itself - I would hardly buy a hideous bikini would I?!)
So... things are quiet.
Wonder when the next storm will blow in?
