Hiya

Had a lovely weekend thanks. Family came to visit so the house was full of kids and laughter - can't argue with that.

Was very happy with the MS work. There was another 2 jobs in this area on Friday that I thought I'd give a miss as I wanted to ensure I was ok enough to do these first and I so am and can't wait to get cracking! Bonus is the jobs are still on there so I'm going to see if I can do those ones too. I really enjoyed it today and was really chuffed I didn't get caught out. When I was running retail outlets I always spotted the mystery customer so we always got high feedback!

Hope you had a good weekend too x

Evening RBR

Even if I take the cost of the top I bought I'm still a few quid in so I'm really happy. Hopefully this will turn into a long term thing with assignments here & there but we'll see.

I'm also near to my first fiver or MySurv so that's brilliant too! As it's into paypal I think I'm going to keep the money in there and see how I do with that.

Ooh, it's all so exciting!! Although on a naughty note I still haven't done this month's budgets which is really bad and I will do them but Eat Out of Tin Cans is now on Ch4 so I'm clearing off to watch that then hopefully sleep!!

Have a good day tomorrow x

Morning all

So today there was no walk to school either as littley has hurt her leg & can't walk properly. No damage just slight swelling and lots of wallowing in her own pity really!

Made a payment onto Cat1 yesterday & made it an overpayment too but with the interest added the balance isn't down to what I thought. Definitely going to do the overpayments before interest added, can't believe I never thought of that! Interestingly, now I've reduced the balance by half the limit has been increased! Normally I would have thought ooh, I need a new *insert irrelevant piece of tat that's not needed here* and spent the money but no more!

I also bought a couple of books off Amazon yesterday that I really wanted but didn't want to pay £8.99 each for. They've now been reduced and I got all 3 for only £10.72 - including P&P!! Mega chuffed or what?

Paid a little into savings today, just a few pence as felt wrong not to put anything across so that's another habit I've clearly got into and that's made me smile too. Now, got soooooo much work to do today that it warrants multiple ooooooo's! Would rather spend the day under the duvet with littley, although I kind of am. Nobody needs to see me so think I'll spend the whole day in my jammies working, can't do that in an office!

Have a good day everyone! x

Haha, I don't blame you for staying in your PJs all day! Me and OH do that on a regular basis when we don't have to go anywhere at the weekends!

Well done on making some payments - you're firing ahead! Sounds like you're off to a really good week so far :j Hope you manage to get all the work done you need to! x

Good thing we can't all see each other on Skype! I would give you a fright first thing in the morning. There is an awful lot to be said for working from home x.

Lol RBR, I think I'd give you a fright most times of the day!! x

Paid some payments off this morning which is great. Not walking to school atm as littley still can't walk so not putting the 45p's across which is really frustrating! Have been putting some across daily though just to keep the mindset going.

All bills are going down except CC3 which I had to use when I hadn't been paid for nearly a month. This is really annoying but good thing is that the minimum payment hasn't risen so that means the overpayment I had budgeted is still an overpayment.

I've been invited away to my brother's next weekend which is lovely but will cost a fair few pence to get there in petrol so that's set me back a bit. I should get paid the day we go but I'm guessing it won't happen so I've reduced some of my op's and put that towards the costs. Normally I wouldn't be able to do this and would have to borrow the money or cc it so although it's frustrating I'm chuffed that I can go without too much worry.

Not much else to say. Oh hang on! I got my first fiver for doing surveys today and am absolutely made up (litle things hey!?). Although think when it actually hits my paypal account I'll be more happier.

Best get my butt in gear and do some work so have a good day everyone! x

CC3 hasn't gone up very much though, which is amazing considering that you were not paid for nearly a month. I would not like to think of the state of my finances if that happened to me.

It is funny how some £5.00's feel like they are worth so much more that others. Spend that survey voucher well x.
