    Morning Muffy :)

    I am sorry to read that you aren't feeling so great at the moment :( Take some time for yourself, it is much deserved. You seem to spend most of your time like a whirlwind. I hope you got a good nights rest last night :)

    Inspired by you I searched around the house for things to ebay but I haven't got very much so I decided that I would start saving things now to have a ebay fest at the back end of the year to help pay for Christmas. It worked last year so I'm hoping for the same. I shall come to you for all the ebay tips :D

    Have a great day today and remember to be kind to yourself :A

    Thank you Freeby, that was nice to read.
    Any ebay tips you need I'll always help in any way I can. It's nice to know you were inspired enough to look for things to go. The build up to Christmas time must be a great time for selling as that'll be when savvy people shop around. Then you also have the impulse and panic buyers! Win Win! :D

    I hope you have a lovely day.

    Well today is going to be a mix and match I think. Now the general aches and pains of falling have reduced and the docile feelings are clearing I'm now just left with a really bad jabbing type pain around my shoulder blade. Fortunately I know what it is, but unfortunately it needs an osteopath to fix it. I believe I've dislodged a rib - again and it's so uncomfortable I wasn't able to sleep much last night. So today I'm just feeling generally tired and down. I have managed to find an osteopath around the corner to where I work who will see me at 4:30pm to fix me, so although the day won't be great, by this evening it will feel like a wonderful day as I'll be out of pain and back to normal.

    I did manage to put a few more items onto eBay last night. I now also have a regular buyer who seems to really like the stuff I'm selling. I love that as I feel my things are going to a good home and some stuff is managing to stay together.

    Last night I popped in to see my Mum on the way home and gave her another run through how to eBay. She's nearly got it but I think another lesson or two will be needed before she's confident. The only problem she has is her intimidation of the site, so once she's done it enough times with me there to help I'm sure she'll just start on it by herself. That will be fun! She gets as obsessed as I do, but she's retired, so I can see a new full time job in eBaying for her!

    So today looks like it will involve lots of staring at the clock willing the day away. 146fs495919.gif It will be such a relief when I have freedom of movement again though.

    I hope everyone has a lovely day x
  • Oh dear Muffin, hope the Osteopath helps you this evening.

    Ebay should be paying you commission, the amount of people that have taken it up because of you!!

    Thanks Nora, if by sorting me out you mean charge me extortionate fees, then yes, I'm absolutely sorted ;).

    How's your new home? I'll have to go and catch up on your diary shortly. x

    Thanks MM, I do love that little wave.
    I've just had a proper look at your signature too! Wow. Going to have to check and see if you have a diary for some inspiration. :)
