All sounding very positive with you DFOD, lots of little bits of money coming your way which is fab.
Fingers crossed for the carers allowance xxMummytogirls x0 -
Did 50p on Y0ugov today, and 10p on 1poll!!
£3.25 on pr0filic and chuffed to have been sent products to review for the first time from P1necone, still completing that survey. Also had a cat food test from Mr T, again first time I've received something (well the cat) to review!
Did have the opportunity to do a £35 mystery shop but I've just cancelled it as something wasn't feeling 100% with it. Might have cut my own nose off there, but can't be sure.

Mr T obviously liked the cats review as they are sending him some cat treats to review as well. Still completing the product survey from P1necone, been quite worthwhile as I've received £6 plus the items so far and I've a further payment to come after tomorrow.
Another £2.25 this morning on Pr0filic so up to just over £12 on there.

Forgot to say DH's tax code got amended to include the marriage allowance, so a little benefit will be seen from that next month!DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Yay to DH's tax code DFOD.
Boooooo to you feeling unwell, hope this passes quickly xxMummytogirls x0 -
I imagine it'll take a while to get into the habit of home-schooling and your new budget. We spend most of the holidays getting used to relaxing, then 2 weeks of each term getting used to working hard. I suppose once HS becomes normal you won't have those constant changes and the learning will be nicely slotted in to each day.
I hope the money all works itself out. We thought me stopping working would be so hard but actually we're still managing to save every month (well, most months).

Up and feeling better now, got another £1 on Pr0filic, and 105 points on Ips0s, £3 on p1necone and up to £12.10 on 1poll.

One day in front of the TV won't do them any harm DFOD, sometimes we need to do these things.
Hope you're feeling better today xxMummytogirls x0 -
Another £3 from p1necone requested - otherwise all quiet!
Family here for Easter so days out planned for next two days. Will try and keep spending to a minimum.
