I think it's gone quite well although it's felt like a long week
I've been reading Paul McKenna's book "Change your life in 7 days", although it's took me 6 days to get to day 4, I've been taking my time on day 4 as it's all about setting goals to make your dreams come true.
Work has been busy all week because we are looking for new staff, but the extra overtime will help bring in more money for christmas, and other things, and in a few weeks we will have new staff which is always nice, as I like meeting new people.
On thursday I went out with my mum and dad to the nearby village of Newbiggin by the sea. We had a lovely meal at the cafe in the visitor centre, and a nice walk along the sea front, although there was a lot of dog mess!
The high point of the week was my husband beating The Claims Guys. They are a ppi claims company who he had an agreement with back in 2011 to get the ppi back on a loan my husband had. They got the money back, but they really annoyed us with the fees as they lied to my husband. They had told him that he needed to pay their fee as he was going to receive the money himself direct from Northern Rock, so he agreed to pay on his credit card. The only problem was Northern Rock paid them, and it took them two months for them to pay my husband meaning he had to pay interest to the credit card. He wasn't happy and had cancelled another claim they were going to do for him after the first. He eventually got the money for the second claim last year, and The Claims Guys then attempted to bill him despite never having an agreement for the work. Needless to say he refused to pay. This year they had initiated proceedings in the small claims court, but after they read our defense, and our evidence that they never followed the rules at the time to create an agreement they dropped the case. A win win for me as it's less work for me, and means that I can go out with my dad this friday.
So it was a good week back, and I'm pleased to say I'm still feeling positive :)
