Happy St Paddys Day folks.
I have worked like a wee trojan today. Downstairs in house is spotless clean. I even used a scourer for my floors as DD had spots of paint all over it so it looks fab now. Washing is just about all clear. Dishwasher just finishing off and place is looking fab.
I am having a short break then staring upstairs. Not that bad up there to be honest so shouldn't take too long. I then have a good few items to list on e-bay. This is a job I really really hate but I will bite the bullet and go for it. The part I hate the most is working out the postage. I always try and charge what it will cost and not overcharge but I inevitably end up getting it wrong.
DD is away to get her belly button pierced but I am sure she will bottle out of it as she is such a coward and no doubt she will faint and I will have to drive up to Glasgow to get her :rotfl:. DS has just gone for a shower without me shouting at him so I need to analyse what that means :rotfl:. I'll be back later no doubt to whinge re e-bay listing.

Well DD got it done and fainted twice :eek:. It is really wrong that I am so amused by that :rotfl:. Glad it was her BF with her and not me. I should state that my daughter faints regularly and I am well used to it. She has quite low blood pressure so that's why she just goes down like a ton of bricks. She's on her way home and all chuffed that she plucked up the courage to get it done at last. God help us when she gets her tattoo :eek::rotfl:5 Year plan.

Good luck with the eb@y listing! It's a good weekend to do it as it's free listing and you can get everything posted before the post office increase their prices on 1st April
Well done DS for getting in the shower unprompted!! There must be a girl involved somehow :rotfl:. Your poor DD and her fainting though! I got my belly button done about 12 years ago and when the guy said "right" I winced and said "ok, be gentle" and he was like "erm I mean right it's done". Hadn't felt a thing!I wasn't even fat then, infact I was the skinniest I've ever been :rotfl:

I yell you if I ever get to target weight then I am getting it done. Just for the shock factor :rotfl:and a tattoo of my starting weight/end weight and weight lost :rotfl:. Might add the debt paid off in there somewhere :rotfl:. Probs across my bloody forehead to ensure it never happens again.
No e-baying done. Tummy problems again. Can't even be bothered talking about it as I am so p"ssed off at it. There is nothing I can do about it when it hits me other than try and manage the pain levels :mad::mad:. Doing my head in but at least although very painful its not serious.
I love sitting at night when the whole house is clean and shiny. Rare occasion when it is all done at the one time. I'm not counting the teenagers rooms btw as I have no control over them.
I hope everyone has had a good Sunday xx5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

Evening folks. A very upset MIT tonight. I dont know if any of you remember that months ago ( just after my Mum died) I got a review in work and was told that I was 'almost' the lowest marking in my team but that my work was like night and day since I had returned after my Mum passing ( big surprise there huh!). I was like a different person and that my manager had understood that things had been very difficult for me due to my caring responsibilities but not to worry. Well at the time I was really vexed about this as I have always been a higher performer but I accepted that there had 'understandably' had a dip and accepted a marking lower than what I would usually have had. Today by accident I discovered that I had been marked as a 'must improve' I am gutted. I am angry. I hate my f*cking job and I cannot believe that they would do this to me and they can all just f*ck right off. How arepeoplemeant to feel motivated? For over 20 years I have worked there and after the first few years I have had either higher or top markings until my Mum took ill. I have had umpteen performance related bonuses and recognition payments so !!!!!! !! Raging does not cover it and I feel like just plodding along and doing just exactly what I need to do to get by and stuff them.
Anyway, subsequently I have stuffed my face with pizza and chips and chocolate :rotfl:. I bought multivitamins and probiotics today to help my gut so fingers crossed. Nothing to report moneywise xx
