Weekend!!

Well I still keep checking the energy monitor!

Does anyone have any advise on how to save energy? I already unplug everything when not in use including extension leads and chargers, turn off lights when I'm not in the room, use energy efficient bulbs, only put as much water in the kettle as I need, have my washing machine set to 30oC and don't leave anything on standby, is there anything else I can do?

The job hunt has still not been very sucessful there havn't really been any more jobs advertised in the last 2 days, I'm trying very hard to keep my hopes up and not get too desparing!  I will continue to apply for "good" jobs - manager, office manager, assistant manager etc until the 31st then from the 1st April I'll hav to give in and start applying for the minimum wage jobs as I'm getting desperate.  I don't understand how minimum wage was calculated, if I worked 40 hours a week on £6.08 an hour by the time I've paid tax, transport and bills I'll be left with about £150 a month for food and everything else how is that livable?!

Well my weekend has been very exciting!!! Yesterday I got up, had a bowl of cereal, put a wash load in the machine, put the dry clothes away, put the clothes out of the machine on the airer, looked for jobs, spoke to my friend, spoke to my mum, watched take me out - I was so happy Stephanie and Charlotte got dates! Discover take me out the gossip on itv2 - how did I not know about this before?! Watched Geordie Shore and went to bed!  This morning my fiances friend brought him home as he'd stayed there last night, he stayed for bacon butties and a cup of tea, I washed the dishes, put another load of laundry in the machine and then back to the internet no idea why nobody lists jobs on Sundays!

Ah well I'm going to walk to my parents and pick up the dog, as the weathers nice it'll do me good to get out of the house and at least taking the dog for a walk is free!
