Hiya Jwil
So sorry to hear that you still in pain, it probably is the chair being different and all your bending. Plus the fact that you were sorting out stuff for ebay etc. You certainly have cleared a bit this weekend. Have you many watchers. Mine have none whatsoever so am going to leave it until the weekend to list again.
Still feel a bit flumaxed:) but hopefully will get myself back in gear in a week or so. January is a funny month. Thankfully I don't feel down so that is something to be thankful for. How is your hubby doing?
Take care of yourself and keep going. You have done so well with your monthly target.
I have said the same to DDfw earlier. Its good to know ya"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream"C. S. Lewis

Awww ebayqueen, it's good to know ya too :kisses3: I hope you feel a bit better soon.
DH is doing much better at the moment, he still has bad days, but they are many fewer than before, thank you for askingIt's nice to have my old hubbie back again :smileyhea
I have one bid on one of my 'new' items, and a few watchers here and there. Because most of mine are relists I don't expect an awful lot. I don't seem to sell stuff that gets a lot of watchers either - a lot of stuff it seems I just need to wait for the right buyer, hence I always list for the minimum I will accept, because often I will only have one bidder.
I hope your sales pick up soon, it's payday week for a lot of people, so hopefully they will all stop feeling so skint now."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
I'm feeling a little bleurgh today
My back is getting a bit better, so swapping the chair again, strapping up my blisters, taking ibruprofen as an anti inflammatory all seem to be helping :j It's still very painful but I have most of my mobility back.
I'm surveying again tomorrow, so will have to take care. Not looking forward to the early start again.
I think I'm a little overwhelmed at the moment, I have my OU assignment due Friday, an assignment for a work course due on Monday, I'm out of the office much of tomorrow, and I have a lot of other things to do as well so I'm a bit :eek: especially as I'm off work for Thursday and Friday. I didn't want to spend those days off studying, but it's looking like it will be that way
Sorry for the whingey post, I'm sure I'll be back on form soon!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Oh how well I remember those days when I had an OU assignment looming - usually I hadn't done the study either so I'd have to frantically catch up on the course first. I remember once coming back from holiday and having to swot up 6 weeks of course in 1 day and then do the assignment. :eek:
My own fault of course because even though I was very busy (all the kids were very young), I could still have been more organised. Anyway, my last-minute approach always seemed to work out OK.
I still haven't learned my lesson in that I still leave things till the last minute. What the hell is wrong with me - I'm old enough now to have more sense!
Anyway, enough of my waffling. If you need to use your days off for studying then do it because it might ease the pressure a bit. You could always study-for-the-assignment if you see what I mean. Perhaps have a look at your other commitments and see what could be put off for a few days. Try not to get too overwhelmed, especially as you are not feeling 100% well.

That's exactly how I work - leave everything to the last minuteI never learn either.
This assignment is for the MSE sponsored course - so must do wellMy other OU course starts next month :eek:
I was hoping to have both done by tomorrow to ensure I could relax while I was off, but looks like I won't be now. I've done a little bit though now :T"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
*Yawn* Shattered today. Was up at 4am :eek:
Oh well, that's one thing ticked off for another week, no blisters today :T, but it didn't do my back a lot of goodIt's still better than it was though, so all is well.
I've sold a book on amazon so that's all good too."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

I'm sure you'll get everything done jwil and i know you may spend a bit of your days off doing them but it will all be worth whilepeaceandfreedom wrote: »Oh how well I remember those days when I had an OU assignment looming - usually I hadn't done the study either so I'd have to frantically catch up on the course first.
