    OOps - its now November and the debt situation has not changed greatly. However - on the positive side it has not increased either so I have stopped the rot this year at least.

    However I have also stopped the ebay sales etc so I am going to devote 15 mins a day this week to tidying the office/ craft room - ditching - saving items for future sales to see if I can restart this venture. Will aim to post each day with details of progress and, at the very least, will avoid spending and willl have a tidier office at the end of it!

    Okay - so its saturday and my first 15 mins. I have focussed on the bookshelf and have come up with some weightwachers material, two books and a collection of cardmaking / scrapbooking items to list on ebay. They wont make me a fortune but its a start.
