Afternoon

nsd today woo hoo 

doing well to hit my target of £100 for the surveys which will pay for our hotel on the return home from Florida.

I have £41.53 confirmed on PA and £11.84 confirmed and I have £14.55 in Qmee 😁 so that’s £67.92 only £32.08 to get which is doable …….not bad for only being in the 12th day of the month

What a woman!

Where the heck have I been for a month???

really sorry guys for neglecting on here

quick catch up……….made £110 on surveys last month so that’s the travelodge booked in Manchester for our return from Florida…..learnt from last time.  Booked early check in so technically I paid £16 for two hotel rooms for 6 people…..bargain.

next target is to book my daughter and her fiancés room for them the day before the flight.  It’s £41.99 for the room so far………sure I’ll find a discount code for it but that’s my aim and so far I have £8.99 confirmed on PA and £1.19 pending so it’s on quarter of the way there already 

it’s all kicked off here…..family drama and as usual I’m the bad one.  MILs mental health in on the decline and whilst she has my sympathy’s and I’ve supported her through this for 2 years now she’s now turned on me, calling me nasty, trying to get me and my hubby to turn on each other, bitching behind my back just turning into someone I don’t recognise and on Friday I’ve put a halt to it.  Blocked her on social media and on my phone, she’s no longer welcome at my house if I am home, hubby will be taking the kids to visit her no more unsupervised visits for now and hubby is taking her to a hypnotherapy session but apparently we do nothing for her nobody does.  Had to phone the police for a welfare check as she’s saying she is suicidal and I have notified her doctors. She’s twisting everything I say and making me out to be the bad one so no more I’m worth more than that.  If anyone knows me they know I’ll help whenever I can and will even push myself to the brink of exhaustion to help however I’m sick of being treated like this by her.  Just feel for hubby but he can see what is happening and he has my back which is a relief because if he didn’t he was outta here, no ultimatum but I went through this with my previous mother in law who saw fit to try and bring me down and I’m not willing to go through that kind of life again xx

How awful to go through. It’s always difficult especially when people turn on you when you’ve done so much for them.

That other hotel room will be paid in no time at all!

I’m sorry to read about all the unnecessary stress caused through no fault of your own 🤬 Good idea to distance yourself from it. 

abba1772

Thank you 

it’s still ongoing poor hubby is struggling as she keeps bombarding him with  texts  saying just forget I ever exist…..those kind of messages just being a drama queen seeking attention

That sounds awful.  How stressful for hubby (and you!).

Another freebie completed.  Booked my daughter and her fiancés room for the day before the flight had budgeted £43.99 went on to Travelodge yesterday and it was down to £36.99 and I had £38 already for this month in PA so cashed that out even though I don’t normally cash out to til the end of the month and purchased the hotel.  Loving how I’m paying for the extras with free money.

holiday is due its full payment tomorrow and next on my hit list for the survey money is abbie and Jacob lounge passes think it’s about £60 so that’s the next challenge then it’s the fast passes for everyone.  After that it’s extra spending money which I haven’t started saving up yet.  But universal tickets are all paid for as well so that’s something else out the way.

my £2 tin is heaving as well hoping to have a night in one of the universal hotels as we get free fast passes for two days plus I have my Tesco vouchers I’m hoping I can convert to get pennies off.  I’m hoping between the voucher and the £2 tin I don’t need to find any money for it.  The fast passes can range from £50 to £80 per day per person whereas a room cost £300.  We did this last time and it was soooooooo worth it xx

Even better that it is cheaper than you thought!

That is worth it if it’s that much cheaper x
