Morning all!
Just back from the park with the dog - its still not very cold - good news for heating bills!
Things to do today....- Walk dog again
- Checked bank - payday on Tuesday:j
- Do lots of school work - I have visitors next week so I'm trying to get a bit ahead of myself workwise
- All food from stores
- Clean wooden floors with special stuff
- Put dry washing away
- Maybe do one more wash if there's enough for a load
- Watch the Rememberance service on TV - always used to do this with my grandad (who was a desert rat) when I was a child and it always makes me cry but its sort of stuck over the years
- Stay in tonight
- Have a bath and a bit of a grooming session

:hello:Hi
I could do with joinging you guys and doing some small things everday to help me start making a dent in my debts again
The small DFW things I will do today are:- Eat the spaghetti hoop and toast I have brought to work instead of buying something else
- Drink free tea/coffee at work instead of buying diet coke
- Try to sort out my paypal account so I can make use of ebay again at the next free listing weekend )this may mean cancelling one account and starting another as apparently getting married and changing my name really confuses things!)
- NSD the rest of the day!
- Make a felt flower corsage to give to a friend as part of christmas present
- Check online banking
- Update spread sheet
- Use the travelmoneymax tool to work out best deal for getting euros to take away next week...

You have to relist one item at a time, as Ebay charges for a bulk relist. Also try and start your items at £1 or higher for the free listing weekends, as starting at 99p or less means Ebay takes it out of your monthly 100 item free listing allowance.
I haven't done anything off today's list yet! Being very lazy.
Will get outside for a walk before the sun is gone! 0
