Just picked up 4 very easy mystery shops for tomorrow which will earn me £9 each :T

4 msytery shops done and submitted Thats £36 I've earned but I promised ds £1 for each shop if he behaved himself, so thats £4 gone already. I also bought a few bits in one of them (new lightbulb for the bathroom that I've been looking for everywhere), some doughnuts for when we visit a friend today, total = £4.29
.

Also sold an ebay item for £2.01 which I need to get in the post today too.

Now we're off to a friends house for the day, ds can play with her ds and we can natter

I've just called the csa and they have still not received anything from ex, surprise surprise, they're going to send out a warning letter to him today telling him they'll be applying for a deduction from earnings :cool: :cool:

We've had a lovely day at my friends house, lots of talking and ds played nicely with her son.

Ds earned £4 this morning helping me with the mystery shops and we talked about money the other day and he has two piggy banks and each time he gets some money he puts half into the savings piggy and half into the spending piggy Anyway, I gave him 4 x £1 coins and he put 2 in each pig (he wants to save for 'Up' on dvd). Just now he asked me to download two songs for him for his ipod and while I was doing it he disappeared off and came back with the £2 from his spending pig for me :T :T Very proud of him for getting how money works, maybe he could teach his father :cool:

One of the songs he wanted was "that one called pepper and roxy" ???? After much searching on itunes I finally discovered he meant Paprazzi by Lady Gaga :rotfl:

I remember my DS2 asking if we were getting the ferry at Penguin again when we go to France? I honestly didnt get it until he said "you know the place that sounds like a bird".......he meant Dover:rotfl: he is still daft as a brush at 15
