I've found the csa to be very polite on the phone, its just a shame I haven't had any money sonce going through them :cool: But at least they are having to deal with my numpty ex instead of me
Well today is looking like its going to be a good day, I oke up to ds grinning at me and asking me to get up ... and he had sneaked out of bed and tidied the lounge and his bedroom as a surprise for me :j :j :j I am sooooo proud of himHis room was tidy anyway except for a couple of cars on the floor, but the lounge was a tip, he's put all his toys away, the cups in the sink, shoes away in the cupboard, I am so so happy, can you tell??
It really is the little things in life that make your day isn't it, not money at all :T :T :T
Oh my, that is possibly just one of the best things to wake up to!
How fabulous, and YES it is not money related stuff that makes us smile the most.
Give him a big hug from me (obviously, don't confuse the poor lad by telling him that the mad woman from the computer is proud of him), but he def deserves it!!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Finally got to the end of the diary...phew!
Definitely going to look into the matched betting thing.
Keep up the good work...your posts are so inspiring :TIt's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0 -
Thanks Poles, an awful lot of my posts are very dull ramblings about housework, but every now and then I get going again on the moneymaking and then its a case of trying to keep that going before something else comes along to throw me off track again
We've had a fab day today, dad has been good today and we went to the airport and saw a lot of the airshow planes coming in and going out. The weather has been a bit pants so it wasn't worth hitting the beach to see it as it was cloudy.
Ds went off to his dads at 6 and I'm off out for dinner in about 15 minutes, really looking forward to it, haven't spent any money today so far although that will go wrong tonightMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Hi BB.... remember me???
:p
I've been offline for a while, nightmare with BT/SKY and laptop died, I've borrowed a friends laptop, mine is going off to the insurance company on Wed as it had juice spilt on it and won't turn on. Hopefully they'll repair or replace it.
Thank DS for his lovely thank you letter, it was really sweet and well written.
It will be good if we can catch up with you both before start of term xx"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke
