A spanner in the works..

well, just as all our plans and calculations are looking good here, we just got thrown an unexpected curve ball today. hubby got called in to the office and told they want to reduce his job hours to part time. They want him to do more duties, but in less days - an impossible task!  Since this new management took over they have laid off four staff and one resigned two weeks ago.

Management doesn't seem to understand the industry they work in (a non-profit) has different values, goals and regulations to corporate cut throat business world they come from. Anyway, we have a few months till they are going to cut his hours. Its a real bummer in terms of our budget. It could be a sign they are moving to lay him off and trying to making him quit first to save money. So I'm not sure whats going to happen but in the mean time we just need to stick to our plan and focus on cutting the budget.

I did the grocery shopping this morning. Spent $99.03
At the moment I'm making cottage pie for dinner to use up some leftover roast beef.
