    Morning

    waiting on wee one arriving thought I would jump on.

    managed to get my hotels booked and outer fast passes through security all thanks to survey money so quite please with that.  Now my aim to earn £100 per month on survey as I have trainers to buy for our son who is only 15 and is a size 11………expensive trainers lol 

    Need to crack open the £2 coin tin and anything that is there gets put straight on my credit card as had to book our universal hotel for the fast passes as dates were running out

    money is ok I guess have a little balance on my credit card and very account but aim to get them clear before we go on holiday as love a clean slate when I go away.

    I’ve been absolutely run off my feet for my volunteer job between organising a community clean up and a jubilee event as well as helping out with the food larder and all the other duties I’ve to do I’ve not managed to submit my own self employment accounts so that’s my aim this weekend to get that sorted and that’s another thing off my to do list.

    very very anxious........they've changed our flights for our holiday and now our connecting flight to Florida is in Canada and hubby cant get a visa /ETA to sit in the airport as he got a years disqualification 20 years ago for driving so we need to fork out money for hubby to get a direct flight to Florida all by himself

    so had a worry belly since Friday which isn't nice at all and my anxiety is through the roof.  we fly out a week today

    What a faff 😩 Can’t believe your hubby is still being penalised for something that happened 20 years ago!
