aawwh..thanks MC..thats lovely of you!!

Just having a wobble about an EBay sale, worried that the buyer may be disappointed...just posted on jwil's thread..but maybe I am seeing shadows. Will just have to wait and see I guess.

A good day today..spent £3.80 on coffees and cake with my OH..a rare occasion I can tell you! and £2.10 on a cake with one of my lovely neighbours. 'Lost' £4.00 on postage on sending EBay parcels but oh well will chalk it up to experience and overall I think it was OK. A LSD!! Ebay has been good to us - £272.10 so far! Not bad eh!! . Definitely makes it worth all the effort of listing and despatching etc.

Did the small things thread today. Do love the discipline of it all and it does help me sort myself out a bit, and a few goals to focus on... havent done the meal planning piece yet but will try and do that this eve

Hope everyone is well..

Well done on your ebay sales! If the buyer isn't happy, just offer them a refund on return, it's what they will be asked to do if they open a dispute. Fingers crossed they will be happy though

Hi jwil..will keep you posted but thanks for that reassurance.

Cheers

Hello all

Just a quick update, have just motored through about 12 diaries so feeling more up to date now...everyone's doing so well too!! Go us!!

Today has been a good day:

- no word from the EBayer I was getting concerned about so fingers crossed and heres hoping
- a NSD - yay!!
- DDs in a good place.... shattered with school and after school stuff - almost like an end of term to be honest - but everyone seems to be coping which is good
- I have a day off tomorrow!! OH has half a day! Whoop!
- Posted on the small things thread..I love that place.
- house clean and tidy..mainly thanks to our amazing cleaner... but it makes such a difference to my mood:o
- boring dinner..but it was cheap and largely LOs so I can cope

Shattered now so turning in for the night! have a few things to do tomorrow..heres the list so far:

- check on mortgage balance for the MFiT-3 challenge
- do the amazing charity survey over the phone at 10am for which I will get £30..completely forgot..thanks DFW321 for inadvertently reminding me:rotfl:
- work out how best to pay the car insurance..£307..??????0% card????
- phone my mum:o (its been too long since I phoned her and so she will be sad)


Byee

Hi Brizzle, just popping in for a quick catch up. So, have you caught the bug that is Ebay yet? It can be so addictive. Well done on your sales so far.

After tomorrow Mr F is on leave for two weeks :j unfortunately for him he'll be helping me in the business for at least half of it. He's hoping to catch the Test Match (cricket) between New Zealand and South Africa, that is, if I don't have other plans for him, mwahaha.

Wow, Fluffes had a good catch up, didn't she! Posted that four times . I wonder if the forum was glitchy after being down for maintainance. Not that I was around at that time of the morning, but it will have been afternoon for her in NZ.

It's lovely how reading other people's diaries and seeing them succeeding AND staying cheerful helps us with our own DF journeys.

You're the third person I've seen mention the Small Things thread. Is it on this board? I may need to investigate.....:D.

About the car insurance, you did do a good shop round for prices did you? As per the article on the main MSE site? And I'm sure you've already thought about this, but don't forget Quidco or TCB if you're changing company. I spent hours searching for our cheapest, and it turned out to be best to stay with our existing provider (Admiral on a multi-car policy), but I know that's pretty rare so I'm glad I checked.

Anyway, enjoy your day off x
