Hello all!
Not much on my to-do list this week as I'm on the overtime rota this week, so nothing much gets done anyway.
Decided to finally continue with my knitting only I'd forgotten where I was up to and how to do the stitches so ended up pulling it all back in frustration:rotfl:. Back to where I was with it now and my one aim this week is to finish the darn square. Who said knitting was relaxing?:D0 -
I been skiving
hehehe been at mums and actually been quite busy - collected another full car load of stuff from old house, been naughty and buying stuff from charity shops again when i said i wouldn't........and bought some bits for my garden and house too!! Not too much but i wasn't really planning on it - i feel like it is a little treat though as i have been working so hard recently in the house and selling stuff etc
This evening i'm taking it easy cos my hips are quite sore from all the box moving, but have a few things i want to work on tomorrow:
pack ebay sale and post
check details of new savings account
check up on insurance for my tablet
take out house insurance
pay avon
photograph new items for selling on ebay/fb
check TCB for tracking of latest purchases
one poll
that will start me off for the day anyway, then i have lots of boxes of stuff to sort!!!Debt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go

Well i actually did so much yesterday i didn't get a chance to post LOL! I got all the boxes of stuff i brought from old house emptied and sorted - was about 30 of them as well
also did a spreadsheet for purchases and sales for double money challenge, went for a quick walk and checked my finances/updated finance book, and sorted out stuff for car boot sale - it was a busy day!!!!
Today i got up at 5am, showered and packed car only to have it not startthen tried again to open a new ebay account but it wouldn't let me cos of the phone number or something. Its not starting off well
but am going to try and spread some positive vibes rather than stay grumpy!
not quite sure how yet, but i will try
Good luck with all your stuff nattersxxx

Got most of what I wanted to get done yesterday. Should have had time this morning to do the rest but we weren't up till half 9! We usually just use small person as alarm clock on a Sunday even if we have work but the 45 min walk to his Nannas then his hyper 2 hours there must have tired him out...must take note
Not much time for stuff today! Feels like half the day has gone and I have to leave for work at 11.
Bath small person
Make small person some meals
eBay listing- not going to get 96 done. Will aim to do 5 new ones and relist some others.
Colours wash
Get expense form from work
Start taking iron tablets again (I didn't like the side effects and had only taken one!)£20 a day April 2014 £834.87/£600 :j

Its been a sleepy in day today all round - i have just got up! No car boot for me LOL! I don't actually mind so much as i'm guessing my low mood yesterday was mostly exhaustion and i needed the sleep.
Natters i used to have to take iron tablets all the time so i can guess at the side effects! They do seem to settle a bit after a week or two of taking the tablets. If they make you feel a bit dizzy/sick/bad taste in ur mouth just make sure you take them after a bigish meal - never take them on an empty stomach cos then its rotten! Hope it settles for you soon
So today i will be:
checking the car starts ok - done and yes
tidying the living room - did a little bit
cleaning the kitchen - did a little bit
sorting ebay sales
relisting and new listings - did some relists
adding things to my new fb page
try and go for a little bike ride
one poll
try and do swaggers stuff (not easy on the dongle)
empty the car
remind myself how well i am doingDebt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go

Hello all,
A week off from overtime (apart from tomorrow night) so can get stepping again. It's going to be more like a hike today though! Been dogsitting this weekend and throw my 4 cats into the mix and my house looks like it's not been cleaned in months.
So tonight I must:- drop dog off back home
- give kitchen a good clean, brush and mop
- clear dining table, sideboard and coffee table of all the carp piling up on them, clean off all kitty pawprints, vaccuum and wash pet fleeces
- do the ironing
- chat to bessie vis FB
- sort card to post for friend's birthday on the 12th

HI His Missus
great to have you back!! hope you aren't too tired after all your overtime!
I'm having a struggly time again - started on Saturday which was a bad day, yesterday not so bad and today a bit worse again. I have been taking baby steps and getting little bits done so trying to see the positive in that rather than thinking i'm getting no-where fast
today i have psych app which i'm dreading but i know i need to go!
apart from that i will be emptying the car and not much else i imagine. Who knows maybe i will feel better for getting out of the house
Oh and i have £10 saved in coins which i would like to lodge if i can while i'm out!Debt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go
