Today has been a good earning day again, thanks to that £12.00 survey from yesterday, total was £24.32 cashed out, whoa I love high earners, and I enjoyed the process! So todays pot is £234.99 which is 90% of total, so not long now before it is there. I am thinking for the next pot I would like to get together the money for car service/MOT. MOT is usally £55-£60 and car service is £262 I just checked so in total I need £322, that will be my next goal! However I don't think I will reach it as fast as MD has no other jobs for the forseeable, so it will just be down to prolific, usually I can reach £6.00 per day to cash out 5 days of the week £30.00 per week 30 weeks £300 so 30 weeks from now is Novemeber 24th I Think I can do better then that so lets say October 1st and see if I can beat it! I love having a goal to reach!

MD said today that she doesn't have the money to pay for the chairs, so tomorrow I will buy two chairs with the money I have and I am looking forward to seeing them, I can't wait to go, I really hope they are there, I will be gutted if they are not there. Also I think it would be wise not to have any money from MD at any rate as she feels I should do stuff for her and I know I haven't got the will to do stuff for her unless I am paid. It is like I won't do anything for free anymore, I use to all the time but then I resented my mother. Admittedly she did ask me to get flowers for the garden and plant them and get soil because I like sitting in the garden too etc...I just feel I want to go back to building a barrier, I don't want to do her gardening, I am happy sitting in the garden as is. I do enough when I am there for now and the last million years, and she still expects stuff from me still. I guess I keep forgetting to take that step back I feel much healthier when I do. She has just given me money however I feel like this was owed for some time, by means of doing stuff for her and her just accepting it. I have done a lot of stuff for free, I have done a lot of stuff for money. But I am not doing everything again...we keep getting into the loop of her expecting me to do stuff for her, It is like I offer myself but I can't seem to stop myself, so a barrier again. And I must find a job for financial security sake.

I think I am just a bit hormonal with regards MD, also I am not looking forward to the warm weather I want to escape it already! I will buy the two chairs today as planned, I am also planning to make a lasagne today and lodger is going to have some. I love lasagne! I hope he likes it too! I may pop to Tesco also and Buy fresh lasagne sheets and garlic bread! with it as I will have a bit of leftover cash - not that I need to spend it, I just want tonights dinner to be good! ooh and rooibos too!

I think in the end I will help MD I was just hot and bothered, it is a nice thing to do to get the garden looking good, I think just the heat and hormones getting to me! Anyhow today is for me, I will do the things that I want to do, one for MD and one for ME!XX

crazy B I would hold off buying chairs until you can get them all together so any fabric is the same dye etc. or what if they discontinue them? Any word on a job? You haven't been swimming for a while (unless you did not mention that) that might relieve some angst?

Chieveley I am super Happy, I mean Super Happy! I have all 6 chairs, OMG I got them at a steal! £504 from £1677 which is just over 30% of Original price - 70% off! They are comfortable, sturdy and look greak here let me show you:-



Sorry I didn't decorate the table before taking the pic, but they fit beautifully and I am so thrilled. I used up the pot and MD paid for my old chairs so I have £202.95 left to pay and MD agreed to give me £200 for my brithday so they will be all paid for! Wow I am not feeling any guilt or regret.

I have £202.95 left to pay on the credit card, Savings pot is zero! Prolific £0/ £9.07 pending I have enough to pay all bills this month. Next mission Me and roomie are having alovely meal tonight cooked by yours truly! I am resting then I will cook clean and prepare for tonight!

Sometime later...

I have made another purchase, which will need to be cleared by prolific earnings, I have bought plastic covers for the chairs, so I will protect them, I hate to wrap them but if it means they look and last longer then so be it! I now need to clear £246.12 off the credit card...(£200 coming soon, so it is not drastic!). Please feel my elation!

Sometime later...I have cancelled the order for the plastic chair covers because when I was a young thing I detested the use of them in someones house, as they couldn't be used the way they were intended or as well as! so £202.95 to make up!

It is very early this morning as I post this, I was asleep then woke at 3am something time, feeling wide awake! so here I am after cashing out prolific for the last day this month, this months cash total is the most I have had for any month (£196.64) That equates to £2400 for the year if it was true for each month! That is quite an extra income! Anyhow soon I'll be working and I won't be able to earn as much.

I am starting a new cash pot, for the purpose of car service and MOT etc or car tax if I can get enough in time, I did cash out £18.25, I transferred some of this to current account for Bills to round the total up, also I am thinking it would be good to have a buffer of around £100 in there actually that reminds me I have got to save £101 for June 1st, this is for ground rent eak and I am no where having saved this, Okay this will be my new goal for May! I will update the signature.

CC is at £200, I am expecting this to come to me as a gift on Bday, so that will be cleared so I am free to work on the next cash pot - ground rent £101 by End of May! Prolific is looking low at £0/£5.07 Pending!

Today I am helping out MD with getting flowers and soil for the garden, I'll probably end up planting the plants too! I wonder if it is cheeky to ask for a cash bonus for helping out today?!

Well done on getting your cc at zero 

I have just finished reading Prof Roy Taylor ‘Life without Diabetes’ (I don’t have it) - might be worth a read / it’s motivated me anyway 

i hope you enjoy your chairs but confused as to why you also need plastic covers for them ? Do you have wild parties? Kids over a lot? Seems extra expense whilst you out of work and if it makes them not look great …

Glad you have cancelled the covers for the chairs. No point in having things you like if you can’t enjoy them.

Hi Guys Thanks for your comments, I thought the plastic covers may protect them from dust, my last lot of chairs really did look dusty, I was also thinking the colour may fade, but I guess it would through plastic. Anyhow I decided in the end to cancel the order for the plastic covers. I think I wil leave them and switch them around a bit so they all get a bit of use! I have to say they feel high spec, I have never treated myself on anything so lavish and I have to say I like it, it is strange to get them whilst out of work at the same time, I have never been happier to be honest, I count this as my 40th Birthday present and not the lousy stuff I got on my actual 40th - This year I am in the 42nd year!

Today I helped MD out twice, she topped up the petrol in my car, also I got a new plant plus £20.00 for getting and planting flowers in her garden. Prolific is low at the moment I did manage to get a survey this morning so I am up to just below a fiver anyhow with the 20 I am up to £26.14 which is 25% and we are not even in May!

I haven't spent any money so I am up to 23/19 No spend days (I think I will edit later if not!) I have to say April was a very good month. Ohh also I now have two interviews to go to (6th and 14th May) Also my council tax has come back with a credit so I am thinking I don't have to pay anything, we will see what they take tomorrow? I could be further ahead again Come the end of the week.

Feeling positive 😊❤️😊
