must be Iris. still in bed, just moving now. Lazy mooooooooooooo

i've moved to the sofa . Hubby is stripping the beds.

I had physio yesterday and my pupic bone has split right down the sympsis, not surprising as it did having DD1 but held with DD2 and its only a bit of cartlidge anyway. The right side of the pubis is moving down and around hence the SPD pain. I was re aligned which was not nice but needed to stop the requirment for a wheelchair. They did giive me information on hiring a mobility scooter for shopping HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I am feeling a bit sorry for my hasband. I've pretty much been advised to do nothing that involves twisting, pushing, lifting of walking too long. OH now is responsible for a good 90% of housework. I worry he won't be able to cope.

Just had a mini clear out and picture taking session. I have over 60 lots to go onto ebay. blimmin ell

losing will to live with ebay. Listing is so slow and time consuming. I have combines a few bits to make lots.

One thing its shown me, I need to reign in my spending. I have 7 pairs of kids shoes being listed that the girls have grown out of, and 5 still had tags on. Clarks and Next mostly.

ALso alot of cosmetic type things, usused unopened sets some £30+. Admittedly alot of stuff i have bought with glitches and money off vouchers but eeekkkkk.

I have been reading your diary from start to finish tonight whilst my OH plays his Xbox (rolls eyes) and you make me laugh, esp the banjo playing Dad! Youre not alone tho, my mother is 65 and tap dances...... :rotfl:

Youve done really well over the past year with the mortgage OPs, youve inspired me to start doing it with mine as well! Do you just go into the BS to pay or over the net etc? We owe about £162,000, not alot if you say it fast!

Am tempted also to do a list of our outgoings but worry it will make me fall off my chair with shock.

Thanks for reading Kimmy. Funnily enough my OH is currently playing lego indiana jones on his xbox. It was halo 3 or something equally gory but baby was going nuts so i made him play something a bit more sedate.

I just call my mortgage provider up and give them my debit card number and the amount i want to pay. I also had them amend my direct debit amount. Quite a few people seem to visit branches to pay some off or use the payment envlopes in banks or transferring cash online. I think it just depends on what you are most comfortable with.

You should start your own diary to chart your progress. Its helpful to chart what happens so in a few months time ypu can look back and see what worked for you and what didn't

Lego Indiana Jones?! They really dont ever grow up do they??! Mine plays online with people from all over the world, to say they get 'het up' would be an understatement....

Thanks for that, I want to control how much I pay off so I think I'll stick to ringing them to pay some off rather than amend the DD.

Used the Mortgage Calculator thingy as well, very exciting....:j

Well done, hope they all sell after all that work! My record was 30 items (ended last week) and that was bad enough!

Emmmmmmm............. you do realise you'll need to take all these to the Post Office don't you :eek:. Can I recommend you do your postage online - you can print out the postage with the name and address and also your return address, then take to the PO and get cert of posting for them all. The only thing you need to be careful of is that the postage is only valid for the following day.
