    You make me feel so lazy! Thought I'd done well to get up at 7 am - but that was only because dd no4 wouldn't stay in bed any longer!

    85 ebay items in one day - exhausted thinking about it:D - good luck!
    Proud to be dealing with my debts,

  • OMG I thought I was doing well by finishing all the ironing by 9.00 am. Don't think I've got very much to e-bay at the moment but I'm definitely going to have a good look around and see what I can find. No news on the debt front today. Still not heard back from La Redoute regarding the £12 charge and whether they'll kindly give it back to me. Off to look for some e-bay bits now.

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!
