:eek: That's way to early to be awake! there should only ever be one 5.25 in a day!

I've started making craft things to sell, even if they don't sell it keeps me busy and also the day out selling them is usually reall good fun xxxx:D

Thats what i do as well and i do some fundraising for charity as well which helps both them and me to feel a bit more useful/have a purpose.

I also try to think of my online earning things as my 'job' and have a schedule for them when i can.

Little things make a difference as well i think, walking to the bank and going in the shops for a wee nosey about while i am there makes a boring task into a more enjoyable day for me, as well as helping me get a wee bit of exercise

I tend to find i don't have enough time in the day now rather than wondering what to do with myself. :rotfl::rotfl:

Todays schedule includes:

superpoints - done
swagbucks - little bit done but would like to add another 50 if i can
survey for challenge
listing some books on amazon selling account got 30 listed!!
get the car booked in for some work needing done :eek:
pay mortgage - done
pay rates - done
walk into town to do the above 2 - done though i had to phone mum to come and collect me as my hip gave out and i couldn't walk anymore on the way back which is a bit scary
contact cccs for review
little bit of work on website
contact mortgage co for payment details - i will do this today!! i will - i didn't do it AGAIN - tomorrow it will be top of my list lol!
check ebay for sales/bids - done had a sale, parcelled up and posted now too
clean out fridge
order migraine script

As usual there is more but i will see how i get on with these today first

Hope you all have a lovely tuesday xxx

Can I gloat?! The only reason the touch up stick hasn't been done is the car manual and documents don't say which shade of silver the car is... apparently it could be one of three which I frankly find unbelievable.

:j:j:j you definitely can gloat doesn't it feel good to get your whole list done?? I love days like that too Well Done!!

As far as i know there is a way of finding the shade for your car on the internet - if you do a search for paint code and car you should get to some of the right sites

Thanks Fairyclicks, I did try that and that's where it came up with my car could be one of three silvers, and to find the code stamped under the bonnet. This sounds like a boy job to me, not least because the car is far too big for me to me able to see something on the underside of the bonnet without a ladder!

1. Sort out make up bag
2. Wrap all ebay/risi parcels
3. Reply to ebay questions
4. List 20 items on ebay
5. Contact Office about dodgy sandals
6. Write vodafone complaint email
7. Sort out DHs ebay email filters
8. Contact Fat Face ask about jumper replacement
9. Find out how much Medicash optical allowance I have left for the year
10. Book courier

Today could go either way, I tend to struggle to focus when I'm in and out the house, and today I've been to the hygenist, and this afternoon I have the midwife. But DH is out all evening so I can spend a bit longer getting it all done.

How easily i get distracted - i wrote my list, did superpoints, then thought oh i will check ebay. I had a wee sale on there :j parcelled it up ready to post, and then i decided to start a new spreadsheet for recording sales and trying to work out profits......that then made me decide to write a blog post about ebay selling as i haven't written about that in all my time blogging. Just finished that now and am rather pleased about it being thought provoking re profit margins

Right, back to the list......i'm sure i had things to do :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
