Sorry to hear about your gran. XSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330

Thanks everyone for your well wishes, hospital says she seems to be doing a lot better just waiting on the ultrasound results and some bloods hopefully she'll be home by the weekend.
Sent another £10 towards hubby's card this morning
working 7am (kids are sleeping on the cuddle chair bless them) and finish at 6.30pm so a long shift, think my brother is going to go visit my gran later today as he needs to he's back to inverness to be with his family but I'm very appreciative of the help.
have input all my Avon orders so far I have have just shy of £800 it would have been over that but I had a couple of items in my Avon stash so that clears a space in my cupboard and pennies have come direct from me. So just waiting on 3 people on getting back to me as they say they have orders. Ill put that order through tonight. And we also have to collect 60 books on Friday night as we used the free ones to recanvas a street that we already have quite a few customers on. boys are excited so any additional orders can go through on Friday night/ Saturday morning.
Cleared out the boys room at the weekend and I have a massive pile of teenage boy clothes mostly branded stuff so I need to get that sorted into age piles and pit on fb and gumtree. Santa needs to bring him new jogger bottoms and pyjamas for xmas.
They've also sorted through their DVDs and a whole box is going to CEX as trade in, I'll save the vouchers up for a game for KK that he wants for xmas, it's shocking the value of DVD's now lucky if I get 10p. I need to try and get a sort through my DVD's and make some space, we just don't watch them anymore as we have Netflix and hubby has prime and I would love a extra shelf in my linen cupboard.
still no idea if college are paying me tomorrow we shall see if not then I'll email them in the morning, can only hope.
Plans for today is to keep busy to take my mind off my wee gran being stuck in hospital

It sounds more positive about your gran. I hope she does come out at the weekend.
Hopefully those books come back with some new customers and orders. I wonder if people are more likely to order things now for Christmas through catalogues rather than actually visiting shops.
Hope your day is good even if it is long

thank you niknak
I've sold KK's bundle of imaginext toys for £50 and I've sorted through the older ones clothes and they are roughly the same size so will just chuck them on as a bundle and get them all gone at the same time.
Just been keeping busy to be honest have two more orders from my Avon customers and the other two have a deadline of 7pm tonight so I can get it submitted. This I'm nudged over to the £800 mark which means £200 commission plus the items I already have in stock woo hoo.
Booked in to see my wee gran for tomorrow and my parents have all agreed to start earlier and finish earlier so I can go up to the hospital. Thank goodness I can get to see her.

Morning
Was meant to get up and do my crosstrainer session as I haven't done it all week but my head isn't in it struggled to wake up but needed to get up and get on with work. Asked my parent to drop the wee one off earlier so they can collect him earlier so I can then go visit my gran at 3pm
I've managed to put a washing on and will get that out once it's done. Plan for today is to take the bag of stuff to the charity shop and DS wants to take his new bank card to change his pin so will do that when we are up that way.
I've been paid by the college woo hoo so I've sent £500 towards hubby's card so we are nearly at the halfway point which should be next week which is great. This week I have sent £706.89 which is just fab I'm very pleased how quickly it is going down.
Still trying to keep busy but I can't wait to see my wee gran today even if it is for her to give me a hard time that she is in hospital.
hoping for a quiet weekend, hoping my gran gets out soon and I'll get a wee shopping in for her and get some of her housework done but other than that I'm hoping for a cheap weekend.NEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.053 -
Wow amazing amount paid off the card as always 🎉 Fingers crossed your gran gets out of hospital this weekend. You're very lucky to still have a gran around, my mum's mum died before I was born and my dad's mum when I was 12.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3
