  • Hello!

    Just paid my daily £1. Had a great week as I've managed to list some items on Ebay, do a little de-cluttering, lost 3lbs (!!) and generally feel really positive about things.

    I'm focussing on clearing out the study, which although the smallest room in the house, is for some reason a mammoth task for me. I am aiming to do 30 mins a night and have it looking good by 1st March. I have sorted out lots of papers over the last few days and can now see the carpet :D

    Ziggles, glad to hear you're feeling better. Novagirl, great work on the surveys and daily clicks and Lexie Lou, hope you're doing well.

    Speak later xx

    Well done on your 3lbs loss NDD!
  • Thanks Novagirl! I also bought myself a new dress yesterday to celebrate - it was a bargain at 70% off the original price so didn't break the bank or my MSE ways!

    Just paid my daily £1!

    What a lovely sunny day today. I've just put my first load of washing in the machine (have about another 2-3 loads to do). Today I'm going to go out and about with the children so we can get some exercise and fresh air.

    Then tonight when the children are tucked up in bed, I'm going to blitz the kitchen and get it into some sort or order! It's been bugging me for months so I figure I'll feel better tomorrow when I get up to a clean and shiny, de-cluttered kitchen!!

    Have a great day x

    You have sun?! We've got a covering of snow so we'll be stopping in today. I've managed to get my Wii working again so will be doing that daily starting today! :) Have some more ebaying to do but have sold a phone I didn't need from an upgrade so that's helped no end this week.

    Good luck with the de-cluttering! Our kitchen is tiny yet still clutter seems to gather.

    Pay day for me today so it must be nearly that time for you NDD? Mind you, not much left after the bills go out but the balance is looking alot healthier than it did last month.

    Enjoy your day. x

    Hello NDD and Ziggles. Think we've all been a bit naughty in February so a new start for March!
    Well my competition entering has paid off with a small win of a babygrow and a soother on its way :)

    Hi,

    I've been poorly the last few days and just couldn't muster up the energy to do anything. I listed loads on ebay the other night. A few items have bids and few haven't. As usual I'm stressing as there are others that have no bids, but we alll know that they take a few days to get interest going.

    3lbs weight loss!! that's brilliant NDD, wish I could lose 3lbs!

    Anyway talk to you all soon and keep up the good work!

    LL xx
