Morning DDFW
Eventually get catching up on the diaries.:)
You never bore me my dear with your de cluttering cleaning. Its an incentive to the rest of us to get something done.
I would let them cancel their bid and start again. No point adding to your hassle. Life too short DDFW. You will get it sold.
Enjoy your weekend and have a good time :
God bless

Hi ebayqueen
i agree - i know what i'm like and i'll let them cancel its just frustrating is all
A little update from me
Had to get up early to go to the docs - bleurgh! Then ended up they were running an hour late! :eek::eek::eek: can only imagine the doc i was booked in with turned up an hour late as i would have been 1 of the first appointments gah!
Anywho's back home now and time to get myself into gear with my October plans :cool:
First off have checked banking and no surprises there - except i totted up all the spends i have done that i could have gone without :whistle: Although some have been hugely overdue - as in i have needed to replace my razor?? do we women use razors is that just the same name?? for ages and finally did it - gosh they are costly aren't they?
Decided on a couple of bits to list on e-b*y at the weekend - if they'll let me as they fall into the category where i can only sell a few items of in a certain timeframe :think:
Now on with the free bingo and about to start the house stuff :cool: The plan is to get to about 1/2 way with the room i'm doing and then tomorrow up to 3/4s and then the final 1/4 on sundayWell thats the plan - whats hard work is deciding what is being kept and if it is being kept where its going as it can't stay where it is
Which is why this is going to be one of the hardest rooms to do
I'll also need to ring a few places up about jobs that need doing and quotes that are needed :cool:
Also i'm on lunch making duty todayand want to wash my hair and have a nice hot shower and paint my toe-nails too - so a bit of a pampering session in the offing
And... got to put in a couple of claims for refunds for stuff - things overcharged on :mad: And i've got to put in a claim on e-b*y for something which i was delighted to win and paid for nearly 2weeks ago and its not been delivered and i have had no response to my polite questions about whether its been posted as i really needed it for today
Oh and the usual washing of pots, washing, drying and moving clothes etc.
Ooh lots to do then i'd best get a wriggle on - have a good day peopleCC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -
Well i needed a bit of a break so have come on here before i get in the shower and lunch is going to be very late...
Started on the stuff in the room and have so far thrown out 2 carrier bag fulls of rubbish- still its gone now and thats the main thing
Even having done this though it is only a small part of everything else which needs doing so i've lots to get through :cool: Going to have to create a pile of 'to do on sunday' stuff as i've lots of MS stuff that i want to get into order so i'm up to date for my tax return
And once this has been done it can be boxed into the loft and then that will be out of the way :T
Had someone out about a job that needs doing and they've been here over an hour - so chatting with them a bit as well as carrying on with the room and the washing and moving of clothes and its all been none stop though i'm not sure about how i'd rate my progress
I don't need to raise an item not received claim via e-b*y as the items been delivered but its not the size i ordered - its a size smaller :eek: Now i'll try it on but even in my slimmest days this size would have been too smalli've checked the listing and the title, item details and desscription all say the size which i was expecting
its not from a business seller either so i don't think i'll actually get it in my size now
So next plans are carry on with free bingo :cool: Move 2 more items from the room i'm working on now and being realistic i don't anticipate getting to the halfway point now :cool: Still as things are done though it will all get easierthen shower, hair, toe-nails, try eb*y item on, cuppa and lunch :T oooh and first off ring up for a quote
Why do the hours go by so quickly? :cool:CC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -
Hey all
Well i've moved more than 2 items from the room - made lunch for us but then ended up only eating a bit so am peckish again nowjust having a cuppa :coffee:
So as i say moved quite a few things, lunch made and eaten, moved washing, rang for a quote, showered, hair washed and toe-nails done and carried on with free bingo :T So all sounding ratherly productive but i'd prefer it if the room actually looked that way as well :cool: And i tried on the e-b*y item and it fits... kindai'm not sure if its a bit revealing because its in a smaller size or if it'd be revealing anyway :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: will try it on later with the right underwear and then decide what i'm going to do
Hoping i can list all the things i want to on eb*y this weekend and that they get bids- have let the bidder cancel their bid on the large item
oh well x

Hey DDFW!
Wow, you've been so busy! Your decluttering and cleaning talk doesn't bore me, it inspires me! I managed to do a whole windowsill last night :rotfl:
It's free listing on ebay this weekend, so good timing.
Hope all is well and you have a good night out this weekend whenever it is!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Today i had quite a good lie-in :T and have started to look a tiny bit better for it though i'll need a lot more lie-ins to look more awake in the future methinks :cool:
I've had a lovely walk :j made lunchdone a few surveys and thought about making a start on the next part of the declutter :T
Won't get too much done now today though as i want a nice hot shower soon as i'll be going out later
Doing all the usual 2 x free bingo, checking for ms's and looking to start putting things on e-b*y tomorrow :TCC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -

Hi o2bfree :wave:*delurks*
I love reading your diary. It motivates me.

*relurks*
*shucks*That is really nice of you to say
In all honesty the reason i try and post most days is to try and keep myself motivated and focused
I am just thinking when to start listing my things on eb*y today - probably get myself organised with a cuppa :coffee: and a bit of fruit and then head out for my run first :eek: i predict a gruelling run ahead considering i may have gotten a little merry last night *hic* :beer:
Good luck with your listings o2bfree and delurk more oftenHave a good evening!
Hi jwil :wave: I had an absolutely gorgeous time thank youAnd... i wore my dress that i got several months ago but had been too tight to wear :j:j:j the scales don't say that i've lost any weight but clothes fitting more comfortably must mean i'm doing something right :T And i felt fab just being able to wear something that hadn't fir me before
Did organise another area yesterday - i wouldn't say decluttered because we are keeping all of the items as they are all needed and wanted but it is a section of the room done and i am going onto a larger area today :cool:
Just going to browse through diaryland before dragging myself out for my run :eek::eek::eek: - will let you know how i get on!
Have a good sunday allxx

Grr! Righto, am going to pull myself together right now and just get out there!
