Hi hun

I'm really good ta! I'm starting this year incredibly motivated in every area of my life, have already de cluttered bedroom, sorted mums bits out etc

Plus this year i am in a very different place in my head, I understand me now and i am truly happy. Work and independance, here i come! :T

Hey Babymoo that sounds great. You had quite a lot of stuff to get your head round last year and I guess there will always be more to come but you seem like you really believe that you can get your head round it all and be ok. You seem really proactive about getting support when needed and I think you will definitely find your way through. You were a big inspiration to me during parts of last year and its great to hear your year is starting so well. xx

Gonna check online bingo out in the morning see if I can add to the pot.

Todays plan is ...

Go to local food shops early this morning to look for reduced meat and veg.
From my bingo win (still in shock) have my husbands photos printed to sell.
Post a item I sold on ebay.
List some more items on ebay.
Do some baking to save money.
A bit of crocheting.
search for any vouchers/offers /surveys online.

Have a great day everyone!

Thanks for all of the information about Turbolister. I have downloaded it and my plan is to add something each day and then scedule it to start at the weekend. (any tips about the best time?) I have one bid on one of my items (£4.99) so I have made a small start. Hoping to hear from HGM today about the gold I sent to them. I have also ordered some craft materials to make a few bits to sell on Etsy (seem to be spending more than saving at the moment)
Anyway back at work today, so best be off. Have a good day everyone.
Jess

Wow, everyone is doing so well!! I haven't started yet, and have an even worse start to last year as have a cc I need to clear .

Right, ironing to do and will give more thought to this challenge whilst I am at it. Might make it more interesting to do!

oh did anyone feel the earthquake in Yorkshire yesterday??? To far away foam me, but 2 in 2 weeks in the same area seems very strange to me!?

Hehe discovered that I still have £5 bonus in costa bingo so I'm playing that just now!

Not made any real cash today. Really should get my finger out.

Need to wait till Wednesday till all my DD's are out then I can chuck a chunk in my savings (probably £200 plus £10 from my imaginary stopping smoking fund!!)

Hopefully the cute piggy bank (bargain at £2.50) will arrive soon and I can chuck my random change (occasional note) in there.

On a bad note - we have SNOW!!:mad:

Elly - the list is huge so far. I've given up for tonight but will do some more tomorrow!

Did you get that cute terracotta piggy bank from Hawkins Bazaar? I ordered one too as they are tooo cute! Put a few of dd's baby clothes on ebay which I hadn't previously though about which has covered the cost. How to turn baby clothes into piggy banks :rotfl:

edit to add - just priced checked and this piggy is selling at over £7 everywhere else, what a fab deal

Morning everybody!
Babymoo - you sound so revved up and ready for 2011 - I like it
Nixi - now, now, no sad face it isn't where you start it is where you finish

As for me stilll waiting for bids on ebay items but the number of watchers going up is good So, I am feeling pretty happy about that. Just a day of getting back to my usual routine, blogging and designing a lot today. Also, detoxing so loads of herbal tea, veg, and nice stuff to eat and will be working on a meal plan with the other half.

Wishing everyone a moneymaking day - time for me to whip out the to do list

Also helpful links for today -

http://www.rescuetime.com/ online time management software, it is a good and a real eye opener to how much time you waste online. If you work using computers or online it is a great way to whip yourself into shape.

Leech block - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4476/ is a great resource that allows you to block yourself from accessing websites that waste your time, loads of settings to ween yourself off of sites that waste your time.

I did. I'm going with theory thats its so cute that I won't break it to get the cash out!! I'm think I may buy another if its still in stock!

Morning everyone. Playing Bingo. Won 70p :rotfl:. Better than nothing I suppose lol.

Back to work tomorrow. So cannot be bothered .
