How has your January been?

« **on:** January 28, 2013, 05:22:59 pm »

I'm just about up to date this month. Contract tomorrow and a £200 or so for Wednesday or Thursday and I will have completed all my work .

How have you got on?

Absolutely shocking!

Crap weather, wages to pay, massive gas and electric bill landing on the door mat,

And most importantly,

No booze due to dry january!

Roll on Feb!

Only been out for a couple of days since mid December due to busting my hand, 3 ribs and fractured eye socket Oh the joys of motorcycles and blind idiot drivers lol. Had just gone back and then all the snow came. Earned the grand total of £350 since Dec the 12th so a good job had a bit tucked away for a rainy day.

Worked rapidly for the first two weeks taking advantage of the warm weather and fairly up to date.

I've only lost one day - the Friday before last (heavy snow) - due to the weather, though I've had about three short days because of it.

My cash flow is terrible though!

Ooops, did you feel guilty mate?

As expected. Cold, lots of white stuff on the ground. I expect Feb will be the same. Got about 40 to 50% of the work done. So no panic.

« **Reply #11 on:** January 28, 2013, 06:20:59 pm »

To be honest, no I didn't. I wasn't doing it for charity or anything so just fancied a few pints. Guinness is more of a meal than a drink anyway.....

Awful, work wise. What with child minding and the weather.
I try and make the best of it but it has been frustrating.

« **Reply #13 on:** January 28, 2013, 06:33:15 pm »

All done

Compared to last January, earning are up by 10% already and there is still a couple of days left of the month. I have only had 1 day when no work has not been done, so I am not moaning.
