Update for Ms Rainbow

It has been a little while and I do apologise to all my readers, life has been pretty hectic lately. We had to make the trip up north for my great aunties funeral, we decided to leave a little early and got to visit my grandad in hospital too alhamdulillah. They have found out what it is, apparently his bowel is leaking into his bladder which is causing the infection and the great amount of pain he's in. Only problem is they seem to be taking their sweet time getting him into theatre to get it sorted :(
Ive been communicating with the guy who is to be my boss in the new place :) Things are moving along alhamdulillah, he's fine with both of my references and now Im just waiting to be given the all clear health wise. Although I really dont understand how they can see Im fit for the job by asking my previous experience with chemicals and lifting, or my height, or whether I suffer from diabetes/ high blood pressure/ hayfever/ etc. Once Ive been given the all clear I can give my months notice in at work. I dont know whether I want to start as early as possible or as late as possible, early would be bad for Ramadhan especially with the super early starts, also it gives us less time to find a car but early would be good as the extra money would come in for when we get married. However, late would be good because of the holiday issue and I need to take holidays for the wedding as well as for when we go to the home office to sort out hubby's papers... I guess Allahu alim right ;) insha'Allah it will work out well either way.
I found out yesterday that my student loan, as of the end of March was just over £8K which Im so pleased about... then I was even more pleased because I have still been putting money away since March which means that Im actually around the £7,500 mark which I was super excited at.. with the extra money from this new job and when hubby can start working full time hours, insha'Allah Im looking to have it paid off by next year which Im super super excited at alhamdulillah.

Ok time to eat.. Aloo Gobi :) yummy... back soon insha'Allah

  3. Assalamu alaikom,
    I didn't realize your granddad was in the hospital currently. How does a bowel leak into a bladder? That sounds so horribly painful and dangerous. I'm glad it was diagnosed and insha'Allah, the surgery to correct it is soon.

    Good luck with your new job. How exciting!!! :) I think it makes more sense to get past Ramadan and needing holidays first, don'tcha think? (I turn into a moron during Ramadan, personally... And employers are always wary of new employees who want a buncha time off straight away...)

    Anyway, take care, enjoy the aloo gobi, whatever it may be. ;)
