    I hope you had a nice rest last night jwill...I just came to the MSE now, and will stay a bit ...If you don't mind me asking do you do anything else rather then selling on ebay and car-boots? I find it to difficult to hold a full time job, go to college and looking after my son even though he is not with me every day. There is only 24 hours during the day and not enough for me:eek: Could someone make it 30 or something pleaseeee?

    There's definitely not enough time in the day! I get up at 5.30am a lot so I can get stuff done before work (I work full time). I don't have any children which helps! I used to study full time as well as work full time, so I guess I'm just used to trying to fit everything in.

    I do try and do other stuff as well, but I don't have a huge social life, partly because I'm skint, partly because I'm antisocial :D. I'm more of a homebody so don't want to be out all the time. I did that in my youth :p

    Well done :T

    You still ebaying the books or different things now as well?

    Keep it up, whatever you're doing! You're an inspiration with the amount you list

    Thanks copperjar! The books are all still on there and not doing particularly well. I'm selling a load of bits which my MIL collected at the moment, so that is going quite well. Not high value, but lots of it. That helps speed up listings as I can use a template but just change the photo and the details on each one.

    I made £59.49 on ebay the other day :j:j and also £9.67 for a sale on amazon :T:T

    Very pleased with those, especially as all the ebay sales were from bits which had already been on there!

    The stuff which is going out today doesn't look particularly good, but I have around £30 of sales which are going out on Tuesday so pleased with that.

    DH and I went to the beach yesterday, had a walk and then he carried on whilst I sat beside the sea with a book. It was a lovely afternoon.

    We've been booting this morning but I didn't buy anything.

    I'm thinking of having a lazy day today so will try and stay off the computer for much of it. I'll catch up properly later or tomorrow.

    Hope everyone is well!

    Absolutely amazing, jwil - all your hard work is definitely paying off. :)

    I've been unwell again - I've obviously not shaken off whatever it was that got me last week and I've been feeling very rough for the past couple of days. Still, a bit better today so hopefully I'll be able to get a few things done.

    Jwil that is fantastic news, well done! you have done so well! I am really happy for you! You do deserve to have a lazy day today, sit down with your feet up, and loose yourself in a book!

    Well done again! x
