  • Well ended up going out this afternoon so not much done on the bedroom, although down stairs is nice and tidy and ive been doing the shiney sink thing from the fly lady website, and it is actually very nice to do pots straight away and coming home after being out, and coming downstairs in the morning and seeing an empty sick and tidy sides is quite refreshing :D xxx

    Just a quickie if anyone can help..

    Oooooooooooooo naughty eB@y. It knows I want to relist some items as it is free listing weekend and it will NOT let me sign in!!!

    Anyone else had this problem ever, and if so is it worth bothering to moan at them or not?

    Evening ladies!

    I woke up this morning with an odd sensation of being underwater - all sort of echoey. I'm not sure if I'm going down with something. It's slightly better this evening.:)

    Beautiful day here, so I spent a couple of very happy hours on the allotment. :D I picked the remaining seven squashes, as we've had two frosts this week, and they'll be safer at home now. The soup I made yesterday was delicious! I've got a recipe for baked stuffed squash, so may try that this week.

    After lunch, we cleared out part of the garage ready for the I**a delivery Tuesday morning - DD's bed frame, wardrobe and bookcase.

    Tomorrow we're going to start emptying her room, and finish Tuesday after the delivery. We need to use the garage overhang to put the existing furniture until it's collected by freecyclers. Wednesday and Friday we'll be painting, then OH has next week off to lay flooring, and assemble the furniture. Ooof....I'll be going back to school for a rest!

    In between, I shall fit in the rest of the flying!

    Love and hugs.
    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be
  • Shysarah yes it happens when its a free listing day because their system cant cope - sometimes works if you change browser - not worth moaning I am afraid as they wont accept that its their problem!


    Pigpen sorry to be late but I am ready when you are xx

    No I've not had a problem.

    Are you using the right password, caps etc not on / off
    Is your paypal account OK

    Without worring you too much, a possible classic sign of an account hijack.

    Yes once you have check again, get on to ebay about it.

    I've done really well with the sorting, all kids clothes sorted:

    One bag gone to the clothes bank
    One bag ready for charity shop
    Another bag started for the clothes bank

    Need to finish sorting gloves and ski socks
    Sort 3 boxes of clothes from the loft to see if anything can be used this winter
    Write a list for items needed either now or as christmas presents

    I've some ironing to do now with strickly and then X factor and knitting.

  • Well, that's the end of my first week! I really can't believe how much I have managed to do - still plenty to do though.
    I'm really pleased I came across this thread and want to say thankyou for making me feel welcome.
    See you again next week, sleep well everyone
