FINGERS CROSSED

SUNDAY
Went for breakfast it was the best meal of the week by far , and i  couldn't finish what i had piled up on my plate there was plenty of onion potato gammon and cheese that got eaten , as always none of that got left it really makes the breakfast filling  all i need on top is beans and sausage,Its getting a routine now its so cheap we could not cook it ourselves for the price they charge.

Went to the Moors to Uppermill at Saddleworth looked at the estate agents Helen is convinced we can live there , who knows we will have to see what pans out , if we make forty thousand pounds that's around sixty two thousand dollars we would have enough to last us  for two to three years , that's  depending on the rent we have to pay and the weekly cost of living .

Living expenses obviously there would be food plenty of eggs for egg fried rice and omelet's cheese and onions along with  peppers mushroom and chicken and potato's we would have to be a on a limited spend each week and try to stay in budge
 ,Gas and electric hopefully this would be reduced as we be walking the moors most of the day specially in summer we be out the best part of the day and late in the evening

Would i have a car not sure if i packed my job in then no i wouldn't it be a expense we could not really afford the insurance and tax.

Mobile phone yes we both could not do with out a mobile phone after the contract was up i just get a pay as you go sim,

Internet who really this day and age could do without a Internet access it essential to our way of life as eating yes we would have to be online.

Once the money was gone if we had not secured jobs we would have to claim benefits until we gained employment this would be the last straw but we want to move for a different life to living in the city and its not about possessions its about a less stress full life

And i am sure .people have done lots more with less then what we will be starting out with the biggest decision and scariest  i have to make is do i try and carry on working and travel each day or resign from my job and take my chances if i was to continue to work which is the more likely ,   then yes ,i would need a car but my wage would cover the rent for our cottage or house and the expense of running the car form my monthly wage ,  i say its a good hours drive to and from work i start at two and finish at ten at night which in summer months would be no hassle the draw back is winter when it snows some of the roads are impassible maybe only for a few days but i would be snowed in.My thoughts are you always make it to work its getting home again or worse still only getting half way home then what.

MONDAY
We was up at eight Helen as an assessment to do if she is successful then she will be called in for a interview if she gets the job she will get a regular monthly salary ,  and this will result in us both having extra money to spend on the things we want which is always a good thing ,and  she will still do her readings either way.
It might mean we see less of each other through the week but we still have friday through to Monday and we can do more with the time we have go to more places on the coast and in the countryside guess it finding a balance what you have to do and what you need to do, so fingers crossed
