    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    I'm in. Going to spend today sorting out ebay listings and getting them online as I need the money!
    Plan for today :
    • Phone calls :
      • [STRIKE]Doctors[/STRIKE] - tonight
      • [STRIKE]Gas Man[/STRIKE] - Friday afternoon
    • [STRIKE]Email[/STRIKE]
    • Ebay
      • [STRIKE]Sort out items that are sold[/STRIKE]
      • List new items
      • Check Paypal balance
    • Take DD for new shoes & then on to doctors.
    Will have to see how far I get....:wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
  • OK, in this HHC I did...

    Monday - kitchen and dining mess
    Extras
    Wash the windows
    Re-join Freecycle
    Add stuff just cleared out of cupboards

    My Extras
    1. Phone Nuffield to book hubby’s MRI scan
    3. Add up DS’s jobs and pay into his account (have given him set jobs to do every day for a few pence for each to see if this will help – don’t do the job, don’t get paid… :) )
    4. Print out new list of DS’s jobs
    6. Wash draw on WM – remind me again why you make sure the draw is back on before you start the second wash??? Oh yea, because the water isn’t released down into the drum unless it’s in and it overflows all down the side of the machine and on the floor!!!!!!!!!!!

    Asda shopping delivered and all put away, didn't get my crate but when I finish putting stuff away in the little bedroom I should have an empty cardboard box so I'll use that instead.

    Welcome newbies :)

    Any news about Tabitha?

    Hope you're getting on OK Lady Liberty.

    Good afternoon everyone :wave:

    So far I have:
    Decluttered 60 things between 7 and 8
    Decluttered 60 things between 8 and 9
    Decluttered 60 things between 9 and 10
    Decluttered 60 things between 11 and 12

    I've just noticed the time....time for another 60 things....the house is looking MUCH better already!

    Little query - we brought a dog harness for stripes about 4 months ago and it's broken. The fastenings have snapped. Would you reckon I could take it back or have I had it too long? xx

    I would take it back Mudbath. Things should last longer than 4 months.

  • Oh no my list's gone wrong. Looks very scary with all the formatting in but don't know how to get rid of it.

    Mumofjusttwo - that's what I thought...not fit for purpose and all that!!!

    Is anyone else suffering from wide pages - not this page but the previous ones. It's not my signature this time because I've made it shorter! xx

    Take it back, it should last longer than 4 months, even my loony dog who pulls the whole time would have problems breaking something in 4 months. They can only say no, in which case take it further, but they will probably say yes - do you still have receipt or POP?

    Not been able to declutter 60 things yet, but have decluttered saucepan cupboard and found 1 pressure cooker with broken lid (no pressure dial and release valve broken?) 1 saucepan I no longer want/need, 1 flask with no lid/cup, a lunchbag and a tray, so only 5 things I'm afraid but better than nothing....

    FF- the good thing about having a husband who saves every bit of paper is that he has the receipt still. He's going to take it back after work so I need to clean it up a bit....stripes likes mud!! I'm guessing after no flying for 6 weeks my house is a LOT worse than yours so finding 60 things a minute would be easy here!! I'll stick to 60 an hour.

    Off I go xx
