  • Right, DS is in bed early, so I am having a night in front of the tv..... Liz Earle is on at 1900 on QVC so I am really testing myself now!! BUT, in front of the tv, I will be doing the following:

    * Online banking - want to see if I can squeeze a few more pennies for PAD
    * [STRIKE]Two crates down from upstairs, see what I can get on MM/Amazon. The plan being to get rid of a load of these so I can crate up the ones downstairs, as OH watches music on the tv, and I use my iPod[/STRIKE] (Still going strong PaP!:A )
    * Ebay listings onto Turbolister - have taken the pics, just need to upload and write as many descriptions as I can.
    * Washing in the machine, must clear the airer and dry stuff on there, rather than the dryer :o
    * [STRIKE]Eat! Chicken just cooked in the convection, just waiting for it to cool before I decide whether to have a sandwich or chicken salad[/STRIKE] :confused: Chicken salad :)

    That'll do for now, but must also hoover and clean the kitchen floor once DS is in a deep sleep...

    EDIT: LAUNDRY - I must put the laundry away tonight!

    Happy weekend everyone. I'm aiming for a productive couple of days so my list for the weekend is as follows

    - £5 Bport
    - write four reviews three done
    - £20 qype £10 done
    - take photos and list on ebay 10 items done
    - Sort out my dining room done as best as I'm going to get it
    - Place a matched bet

    Think that's it. The dining room scares me but I might find more ebay items in there so must go in.


    I didn't quite manage everything but we were out nearly all day today so I think I've done ok considering. I keep making silly little mistakes with matched betting so am staying away from that for a while.
    Another list tomorrow I think as it really helps me stay focused.

    * [STRIKE]Ebay listings onto Turbolister - have taken the pics, just need to upload and write as many descriptions as I can.[/STRIKE] 6 items now listed on ebay :D
    * [STRIKE]Washing in the machine, must clear the airer and dry stuff on there, rather than the dryer :o[/STRIKE] Done, but its had to go in the dryer because the stuff already on there is still damp (and its all shrinkable stuff so can't go in the dryer)
    * [strike]Eat! Chicken just cooked in the convection, just waiting for it to cool before I decide whether to have a sandwich or chicken salad[/strike] Chicken salad :)

    Next job is to hoover then clean floor.... my favourite:rolleyes:

  • Hi can you count me in please.:j

    I guess top of the list has to be getting a successful financial hardship ruling as everything else pales in comparison if I can't get this sorted out. The account is in arrears and accrueing interest.:eek:

    1) financial hardship.

    I need more challenges to get me on track to being in the black.:o

    :hello:

    Thought I'd drop by to say that I've done absolutely nothing challenge wise for the last few days.

    I think I need to start thinking of some daily challenges to get the motivation back up.

    Hope everyone else is staying on top of thing.

    Looking forward to the future.
