    Thank You so much for your Support as well Upsidedown Bear and for giving me a gentle kick when I needed it...I really appreciate it....And yes, you were definitely proved right.

    I agree with everything you say Shovel Lad...I DO need to meet my Finances and everyday living expenses...then and ONLY then will I be having treats....

    I have a Plan for tonight....going to start around 11pm....and I have a Target in mind but it's quite large so I'll see where I get to by morning....and Report back on what I've made Overnight...

    What I tend to do Pesto Pasta is set out my Working Hours for the Week....the thing is that I actually need to stick to them for the Week rather than thinking "Oh well, I'll just get some sleep and then Work"....So this Week I am determined to stick to the Hours that I have set out for myself....and see where it gets me....But one thing is for sure - I will be hitting that £60 Target by Wednesday....actually I'm hoping to have hit it by tomorrow morning actually....but we'll see what tonight brings and how busy it is!!

    Thank You again to everyone that has Posted today....I feel humbled by all of your continued Support even when I mess up...

    So I thought I'd do a quick Post.....let you know where I'm at right now....

    I just had a REALLY nice Evening with my Friend....he took me out for Dinner instead of staying in....and it was quite a long walk away so we walked and talked and ate and talked some more....Was a really lovely Evening off....

    Tonight I'm starting Work at 11pm as planned. I've broken up my larger Target into smaller more achievable Targets and each time I have met one of the smaller Targets then I'll take at least a 15 minute break before moving onto the next Target.

    The first Target is £35....Should take no more than 5 hours at this time of the Night with the Pay the Rate it's at....I'm hoping to have done it in 4 hours as the Rate is much higher than during the day.....so keep your Fingers Crossed for me....

    Once I've made that I will have made the £60 Target that Pesto Pasta set me...so I will be made up!!!

    But I won't be stopping there....I'll want to earn more and more....

    So, that's where I'm at....Just going to relax for the next 40 minutes...I like to log on on the hour....so not going to log on until 11pm as planned...

    £35 here we come!! :j

    I am stalking you Helen! Got for it. And when you achieve it you can fall into bed and have a lovely sleep in the knowledge that you have not only achieved your target but smashed it to bits... Good luck.

    You go ahead and stalk me as much as you like :D I really appreciate it....

    And yes, I'd like to carry on once I've hit that Target but we'll see where I'm at....Usually when I have a really great Session and hit my Target then I want to carry on....so I'll just see where I'm at and hopefully carry on to do another Target after that....

    But yes, I will have completely smashed that Target to pieces by the time I get to the morning...that's a promise!!

    Night Night hun..hope you sleep well....
