I'm trying to decide if to try listing some bits on ebay or if to take it all to a charity shop. I haven't put anything on ebay for years. What do you guys think??0 -
I'd check the completed listings column for whatever it is you want to sell before making your mind up.‘Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.’ David Lynch.

Count every victory, there is no failure here:D:D
The lists are suggestions only, don't feel you have to do everything on the list or on every level...the rooms come round again next week, so don't panic, it DOES gets a little bit easier every week.
If you feel like you are having trouble getting started, put a message on here for some company for HHC (half hour cleaning) or something else.....you will be surprised who will join you, set your timer, get your kettle ready to boil for a cuppa, then promise yourself to come back on here after your HH, record your victories and enjoy your cuppa -
Sometimes flying all day you forget what you have done, but you can do a lot in HH and if you take time to pat yourself on the back you may feel happier coming back and doing a bit more....
big hugs
xxxThe cold never bothered me anyway0 -

Ok, still a few bits to do. They might get done this evening as I'm in school all day tomorrow. I def need to tidy the kitchen and have 2 mins in the LR putting away bits. I only have one thing waiting to be ironed, though there are clothes in the WM. Might get those done in the morning before work.
Hope all are well, or at least, feeling a bit better xx0
