  • Another great start to another week! Felt bad with my labyrinthitis yesterday so did not do much apart from Zapper, I also sold my old washer yesterday but can't add that until I get the money from my friend next monday! so today when the postie came with £250 vouchers for petrol and a few coupons and a febreze scented candle it gave me another boost, need to list the last few bits for sale today and then I can spend next week making some new stuff for my folksy shop :D
  • Happy Tuesday! Sewing Machine has been sold so I will package that up for postage. The only other things to do are to get on with the rest of my project work and keep my motivation up. I do have a bit of a monkey mind so the key is staying organised and focused. Happy that my total is near the £400 mark! Whoop whoop!

    Last week I made £35.95 - a £20 Amazon voucher for signing up to a 30 day free trial of Lovefilm, and a Topcashback payment I was due.
  • Hi elly - I deleted as I thought it wasn't important!

    Having bad time at work at the moment. You know when you sit there and think 'I'm going to walk out in a minute' that's how it is..too much pressure/carp computer system/new system that I can't work/ etc etc
    If I wasn't in so much debt I would throw the towel in, but then I wouldn't get another job.

    Well i'm really up for this one... I think I'd probably have a chance getting a little bit closer to 2012 than £12k but hey ... power of positive thinking and all that... I 'm going to carry on selling stuff on ebay, gumtree and anything else I can do to raise a few pound. My annual income is just about 12K so getting anything extra will be a major bonus!!
    Will update my bits on the signature later!! :)
    Turn £100 into £10,000
    Total £0/£10,000
    :j2012 Challenge - £14 / £12000
