    I think it's a free listing day on eBay on Sunday..

    9 times outta 10 it's free for me coz I just start my listings at 99p coz it's stuff thats been lying around so if that is all i get for it so be it. I really must get my photos done and get more stuff listed on ebay. Means once it sells I have more money in my paypal account to buy more stuff to clutter up the house with :rotfl:

    I won't be doing any ebaying tomorrow night as I'm going with my mum to see my niece and nephews dance show.

    All quiet again in the murphy household....

    OoooOOOOOOOoooooh!

    My mum just told me that the Aberdeenshire housing form turned up at hers for me, just to give you the back story -

    We were living at my mums when Keira was born, put our names on the Aberdeen housing list and the Aberdeenshire. Got offered a flat by Aberdeen council. Never took my name of the Aberdeenshire one. I thought I had been taken off (much to my dissapointment) as my mum had got into arrears and as I'm over 18, the housing guy wanted me to pay it :eek: she had to tell him I didn't live there and he said he would be taking me off the list (kn0b) anyhow he has been moved to Huntly now, and clearly never did take me off the list (lolz) so gotta return the form to say yes I still want to stay on the list (they send them out every year) and if you don't return it in time they take you off, which is just a way of screwing people over.

    Anyways, they think that me OH and Keira are living in the spare room at my mums, been on tht list for 3years. IM BOUND TO GET OFFERED SOMEWHERE HALF DECENT SOON RIGHT!

    It does feel really good to get to groups but so many are aimed at babies and I don't want to put Chris in the creshe. Its not like having a toddler and newborn i unusual, why shouldn't I be able to do joint activities :rolleyes::confused:

    On a Wednesday my Mum comes over and looks after Jamie for an hour while me and Poppy go to Jo Jingles then she brings him to the Childrens Centre and we swap and I go to Baby Club! Its the only way I could see around it but I quite like it as I have one-on-one with both of them.

    The nursery we have looked into rang today and they have a place for Poppy in October! :eek:. Its only two sessions per week and I know she will love it...but me less so (until I get used to it!).

    Hi Ladies,

    I just wanted to say look after yourselves during the next two weeks.

    I'm not even going to attempt to catch up on my return.

    DH is currently loading the car, we're off at 5am.

    See you in two weeks.
    have a great holiday!

The outside cut split in hospital and i now have a hole, that has now scared over, with a big dent in. It looks awful....but she was worth it so thats what i have to remember x

    call me thick, but if i list stuff at 99p and its free anyway, does it make a difference if i list on sunday instead of any other day? i'm new to this ebay selling business :o


    caz, i got pots and pans from wilkos a couple of weeks ago and they're fab! i'd never used decent ones mind, only value ones :o i paid £8.99 each for two saucepans and about the same for a huge frying pan, i love them :D

    looking at that link for the baby event, its a bit disappointing this time really :( their travel cots are £29 anyway so you'd only save £4 buying one that week, ok so the £25 buggy is really good, but i'm not seeing a lot else thats of interest :confused: is that just cos seth is older and doesnt need things like bottles etc now cos we've already got them?

    eBay info here - http://pages.ebay.co.uk/promos/0IF_090913/index.html I think you can set your own starting price, over 99p, and it still be free. I haven't sold anything on there for ages, I just really ought to :o
