Does sitting eating or having a bath count?
So no. not really.
I dont get a sit down. I dont know who does tbh!
A form??? I have no idea! It sounds to me like the ebay account isnt fully funcitonal, try and do a sale via ebay for a start.
I know the telly is absolute pants. I hate celebrity jungles and amateur singing its all very Butlins and unprofessional IMO. So I am missing nothing by not sitting down anyway.
I am in a right humour today, as my car search is proving ever more frustrating.Trying to shift that debt!0 -

Thanks hun - gonna have a look tonight. I have a few things to get on so will list one tonight even though mid week just to get the ball rolling.
The sitting down thing - that's the same as me and it's a nightmare at times, especially as I am trying to take time out to revise. I adopted a new strategy the other night which saw me doing everything at the same time as the kids - tea (as normal together) then making packed lunches while they had their puddings and tidying the kitchen whilst doing a singing dance to entertain youngest and mildly amuse DH who'd sloped off to his computer at this point grrr, then bath for us all, and bed for them whilst I rdo washing and the usual. Only thing was I was cream crackered more so and stress levels had been though roof as DS is in destructive age so that if he isn't tied down something gets broke. Now where did I put those pro plus.......
I think we all deserve a christmas present to ourselves!

Thanks for your comments yesterday huni, I don't know but I feel super positive when it's just me and the girlies, don't know if that's just me or if it is OH's influence is not there so we don't feel negative.
Having a super efficient day here at work, wish my house were like my desk and hyper organised! Yeah right!!!!! The day my kids are organised will be a cold day in hell. Speaking of which, its foggy, frosty and just darned cold here today so DD2 went to school with DD1's old hat, scarf and gloves from last year and DD1 went with my hat, her scarf and handmade wrist warmers as she hates gloves!. Me am freezing my bahookie off in the office and its making me yawn like no-body's business, so am going for a ciggie! Being outside in the cold will wake me up then another hour and I will be getting ready to go home. Has been super great finishing at 4pm every day this week ... wonder if i can get the boss to agree to it on a permanent basis but without a drop in pay!!!!! Now that would be MS as I would be able to be more productive outside work as well as inside work.LBM - August 2008 - Debts then - £33390 :eek:- 2nd LBM - November 2009 - Debts then - £18500:mad:

Aiming for a No Spend Christmas 2012!0 -
Tonight we are having a lovely family night out. We shall attend lumiere in town and eat out courtesy of tesco at Cafe Rouge, where I have booked a table.
I shall park at work, so basically, this will be a free night out. Whoo hoo.
My ebay has sold well, and I am building my next allowed limit of listings in turbolister. I am also going to blitz the house this weekend a bit and im sure more ebay will arise from that lot.
Other than that money is tight, but we will get there.
Need to get Christmas out the way, keep ebaying surveying and this time next year I know I will have under 10k to go!
Husband working from home. Hope to god he has the place tidy and has not actually done much work.
Not alot of Christmas shopping to get, need to make a list, but its looking good. Mister Dinosaur came for DS and a silver envelope of pandora beads was delivered. All good. :T

My night went really well, I am tired today though. The lights were fabulous... look at http://www.lumieredurham.co.uk/ to get an idea. I found it all to be rather moving, particularly the projections onto the cathedral, which is a very strong part of my regional identity and has an important place in my heart, and with the music and atmosphere it was truly breathtaking.
I was proud to be a pit yakker.
Haha
Anyway I am going to have a bloody good sort out this weekend and things will be all spangly new. I will even clean out my handbag.
Debt wise I am maintaining things for now til after Santa has been, then I shall go mad again.
Wine o clock tonight lasses, cannot wait.Trying to shift that debt!0
