  • Hi guys offline for 24 hours not happy with talktalk or DS who was the probable cause.

    Looks like ebay going well for you both no luck with my items I am going to give it a rest and stick to car boots.

    Hope your DS enjoys Foo Fighters Dizzy I would love to see them live.

    GR I know what you mean about eating rubbish. I have stuck a few pounds on in the last month and I do think poor eating lowers my mood.

    Catch up more on my thread and tommorrow

    Hello GR and Wendy, hope you're both okay. Will pop over to your diaries soon.
    Well today I've lounged in the garden and written my menu for next week and the shoppping list.
    Not been a happy bunny as I've had dreadful tummy aches on and off.
    Got one item selling on ebay. I don't think I'm going to bother with relisting most of it. Just going to pop it into the charity shop. I was just unlucky that a lot of it finished at tea time the other day and I had watchers, but to be honest I just want it out the way now. I feel all cluttered up in my head, feel a feng shui session coming on!
    Must add last four items I sold to sig.
    May do another money challenge for June but will keep it low again.
    Going to brave Tescos soon so I can relax later on. I'm so tired and feel weary. :sad:
    Popping over to your diaries now.

    Hi Diz, sorry your not feeling up to the mark. Pamper yourself after Tesco's.

    I've got 10 items ending this evening and have had a bid on one item and got 2 watchers on another item. Apart from that - nothing. Will relist them again though as it seems to be hit and miss. Have been through DD's bedroom this afternoon and found quite a few things to list so will get them listed tonight.

    Hi GR Thanks hun, I'm still here. Just been catching up with you and Wendys diaries.
    I must make an effort to get to Tesco. Tummy just feels like it's on fire!
    I think you're right about ebay. Trouble is I'm losing the enthusiasm now. Maybe it's just because I feel like !!!!!!. (sorry!) but I do.
    Well at least I've got a shopping list today to take with me.
    Right I'm going to make a move or I never will.
    Catch you later hun...oh and I hope all is well with 'everything'

    Well finally got to Tesco yesterday then on to Asda. Felt dreadful going round, absolutely freezing, despite having OH jumper on, and tummy on fire!
    Anyway today tummy feels a bit better and I feel bit more with it.
    So it's the 1st June and I've had a sale on ebay. Will wipe may totals now off sig.and start afresh for June. Not going to bother taking off fees and postage etc just going to add as and when I get a sale. Added a couple of things on Amazon too. I live in hope!
    Also I'm going to add to sig. shopping bills.
    Now I've worked out this weeks menu (all vegetarian) mine will be roughly the same without the dairy produce and lots of seeds and nuts, here it is, just in case I lose it Lol
    Monday
    Quorn sausages mash veg gravy
    Choc mousse
    fruit juice
    Tuesday
    Jacket potato cheese beans salad
    Mixed fruit
    Fruit juice
    Wednesday
    Pizza jacket potato garlic bread mixed salad
    Ice cream
    Fruit juice
    Thursday
    Quorn slices and salad in pitta breads chips
    Jelly and fromage frais
    Friday
    Chilli jacket potatoes garlic bread salad
    Apple/grapes fromage frais
    Fruit juice
    Saturday
    Own Choice from sandwiches soups beans on toast spaghetti on toast
    Burger in buns salads yoghurts fruit and juices
    Sunday
    Cheese and onion pie roast potatoes (stuffing, kids love it!) veg gravy

    Water fruit juice

    Not very happy with overdraft again but now I'm looking at June as a salvage month rather than moaning at how crap I've done. Going to see it as a challenge.

    Hi Diz, well done on the meal plan, once its drawn up you tend to stick to it easier.

    You need to draw a line now and not worry about the last couple on months and start again from here on in and concentrate on getting the OD down.

    I've added one or 2 things to e-bay and amazon today so hoping for some money there. Got 6 items ending today but no watchers on them.

    You're right GR. I'm looking forward now. Got a nice surprise earlier on. When DS said there was a ticket going spare for the Foo Fighters tomorrow I put the £20 in a side part of my purse. Forgot I'd put it there and gave DS the money, forgetting I'd put it aside. Found it earlier on when looking in my purse for receipts! He got a bargain too, the tickets should have been £42.
    Ooh my tummy is back to cramping as well. I'm going to go in work tomorrow and hopefully last til half three. I have never had pre.p.pains like this before!
    OH has done my hot water bottle and I'm going to go up now. Just been paid for another ebay item. Only a couple of pounds but better than a poke in the eye. I've added it to my sig.

    I thought I replied yesterday???

    Hope the tummy pains clear quickly Dizzy. If the OD finishes lower than last month even by a pound then thats improvment. Finding the extra £20 helps!

    Hiya Wendy...I felt a lot better, thanks, touch wood it goes.
    I'm on a damage limitation for the rest of the month. Posted an ebay item today and it was about 40p more than I'd put. Nevermind. Came home to another ebay item sold. It was a buy it now but I still had to send an invoice because they hadn't paid. Thought you had to pay straight away on a buy it now? The £20 is safely tucked away upstairs now, though not for long I expect. Just seen DS off on his way to the Foo Fighters. Manic Street Preachers are on too!
    Hope you're well Wendy.
