We've done 2 trips to the tip, the garage is quite a bit clearer but theres still a few bits to go to the tip but they're too big for the car

Just had lunch and now am playing scrabble and ludo with ds

benbenandme

£10 from a bookies email offer today :T and a free £5 games offer to come in the next day or two.

This means I've got £48.50 in the pot now, still no idea which garage fob I need though

benbenandme

Just received £4 from another survey, £52.50 in the pot Seeing as I don't know about the fob yet I've decided to concentrate on the holiday pot first, which needed £50, so thats now done, and have £2.50 in the fob pot This is the last target to get to then its back to the mortgage fund

benbenandme

£4 profit from a bet making £6.50 in the garage pot.

You're on a roll...won't be long before the fob money hits the target:beer:

You're right Milly, I've definitely got my mojo back right now, I think it was finding out yesterday that the maintenance is stopping indefinitely :cool: It has given me a kick up the you-know-where to get on and find some more money; if I can't rely on ds's father to provide for him then I'm gonna have to do it totally alone It mkes me laugh though, if I was to lose my income I would still need to find the money to provide for ds from somewhere, yet if a father loses his income then its okay to stop providing ....

Anyway, I've just joined another bookies, I haven't looked for new ones for ages, I've just been relying on offers from the ones I'd already joined, so seeing as I still have 2 weeks before I go back to school I figured I should crack on with some more offers as the £400 I need to find each month for the mortgage pot and £50 for the holiday pot is going to be quite tricky if I have no maintenance money to put in either

Another new sign up done, should make me £18 profit tomorrow night which will then mean I have £24.50 in the pot, so another £12 to find to finish off the garage fob pot and then I can crack on with the mortgage pot again.

I'm really pleased with how much I've managed to make this last week or so, but I am also very aware of how stressed I am at the moment, I'm not particularly enjoying the holidays, I'm eating loads and constantly worrying about the financial situation ... I hate this feeling, I just want all this rubbish finished, I hate the fact that my income and my stress levels still depend on my ex Hmm, think I need to go to bed and hope I wake up in a better mood

This is certainly a pants situation to be in. If he has left his job, it won't look very good to other employers I imagine. I am sorry that he still has so much control over your financial life. On the other hand it is a good thing that he still wants to be involved....
