Think I'll be starting it again soon

I've had my bath and got dressed, changed the beds and the washing machine is now doing its thing

Dishwasher has been emptied, kitchen has been cleaned except for the floor. Off to complete the census now then I can add that to the pile of stuff to be posted. Still trying to persuade ds to get dressed :cool:Mortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000

Have spoken to the csa, basically the £20 he paid on 4th march only cleared with them on the 8th, but it is sitting there as no-one has remembered to allocate it to me :eek: As its not the expected amount the computer doesn't recognise it, and therefore someone needs to tell it to send it to my bank account. The guy I spoke to can't do that either as he isn't working on my case, so I have to speak to someone on monday to ask them to tell the computer to give me my £20 :cool: Csa .... incompetent ..... yet again :mad: :mad: Still, I've waited over 5 months for it so far, am sure another week won't matter

Back home after a lovely day out; went and posted the letters, got presents etc, then went to the park with ds before we went to the pub for Grandads birthday. Had a lovely lunch, caught up with my cousin and her kids who I haven't seen for a while, then took Grandad to visit Dad which wasn't so much fun

Delivered Grandad back home for an hours sleep before he heads off to the pub to see his mates
Bournemouth lost 3-1 today so am not happy about that, they have dropped from second in the table to fifth
Other than that though its been a great day. Is it sad that I'm missing chatting to coffee guy today? Just realised that today is the first day we haven't chatted since we met (he's gone to visit his 'friend' this weekend). Possibly meeting for another coffee or something next weekend though. I know theres nothing in it but I do like chatting on with him

No not sad at all - it is telling you what you need to know

Okay so its 6pm and I have got my pj's on (feels more cosy), and I have a nice tidy flat and for once don't have a huge list of things to do
So I have decided that this evening I will aim to complete two things; (1) the ironing and (2) rejoin ebay 
I have been avoiding this task for ages and ages, I did rejoin once and got my first negative feedback and have no idea what went wrong really. Basically I need to start paypal from scratch too as my old account was linked with the ex, so need to sort loads of bits there too. Anyway, thats my mission tonight, the footie season will be coming to an end again soon and I need another source of income as the mystery shopping is few and far between these days.Mortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000
