Money money money

Yes folks, it's that time again. The one where I start banging on about how I wish I had more money blah blah blah...

Phil & I are moving out in a couple of months. Haven't put down a deposit. Haven't started buying anything. Haven't decided where to live. He's got a disciplinary hearing tomorrow. Review on Wednesday. Thinks that might be it. I hate to admit it, but it may well be. They've got it in for him, he's getting more and more downhearted everytime he goes to work, it's not looking good for all concerned.

I'm still in love with finding a house up north. I'm not sure what Phil thinks about that idea anymore. I asked him the other day if we can move before we have kids. I think we can provide a better standard of living for them north of the border, no two ways about it. He did agree, but I'm not sure if he was just saying that for an easy life.

Finances are tight. I'm sure I'm being paid less than what I should be, but when you're paid weekly it always seems a little less. My outgoings seem huge in comparison, even though I try what I can to keep them to a minimum. We've got our holiday coming up soon. Phil's getting a grand changed as spending money, asked me how much of that I wanted. Fuck knows how much I can afford. Couple of hundred? Haven't even finished getting bits and pieces yet. Got 4 birthdays coming up, wont be able to afford presents for them. Argh, I dont understand! Just had a look at my budget again and my outgoings are a week and a halfs pay, so in theory I should have a fair whack left each month? Where the hell does it go. Apparently, if in September I save all my pennies, I could have just under 3k spare. Doubtful.

A new job would be lovely. One that pays handsomely.
