SO tonight's jobs are change bedding and wash it, clean bathroom then relax. Tomorrow I need to go shopping, visit parents and make a card for friend's daughter's birthday next week.

Well, didn't make the card but going to my friend's tomorrow for tea and a craft night so will make it then.

Been a busy weekend so there's not too much to do this week around the house.

Jobs for tonight are: vac living room and bedroom, get Hubby to clean bathroom, make lunches for next two days and check bank accounts online.

Xander's mum, hope the boys get better soon xx

Popping over from the £10 a day thread as promised- hope you'll have me! I need to be more organised and concentrate on doing positive things daily in order to feel more in control and organised- and to make more money! Shame I didn't join the thread a few weeks ago as Im into my last week of 3 weeks holiday off work. Im getting quite pregnant now though so need to get things done before little lady appears! Also have almost 21 month lb so will definitely have my hands full! Will also think about long term goals and update with those soon. Just a little list today being as small person is about to wake up from nap and half the day has gone anyway!
So:

Read thread
Pack eBay parcels
Post eBay parcels (this is a trek in itself as Im trying to go without a double buggy come June- so Im making small person walk everywhere!)
Compose and post letter to Vanquis to get history of any bank charges
Do a wash
Dry washing
Phone docs
Get 10 items photographed and scheduled for eBay- not sure when to list
Do all washing up before bed

Thanks Fairy

Back again!

I didn't get everything done yesterday so have 'rollies' already lol! Baby free day for most of today though so hoping to get quite a bit done!

Phone Docs
Phone Estate Agents
Phone other estate agents to view auction property
Washing up
Reach listing allowance on eBay- about 60 odd to do!
Wash and dry washing
Do floors downstairs
Spend an hour in bedroom tidying and sorting out more stuff to sell etc
List new stuff on business eBay---half done
Try and get stock that customer has requested- needs to be done after 3 to get free parking
Water plants to be- keep forgetting I have little plants now
Dye Hair
Check out Swagbucks Thread
AppTrailers
Go to HB and try and get the 8 for £1 Creme Eggs- didn't have any left yesterday.- none today either
Go to midwife at 3 (following test results )

Think I'll keep it at that today as would like to achieve everything! Hopefully eBay wont take too long. Going to put all my relists down to 99p starts to get rid of them. Don't really want to but we need rid and I cant see me doing a car boot so its best that they are gone. Helps with the feedback too as Im hoping to build the feedback up on this account as much as I can as this will hopefully be another business account in the future!
