The Long, Long Road to Mortgage Freedom

Quite a successful day today.

Sold 3 little bits via Facebook pages and popped straight to onlinebank & paid it as OP. I'm also going to try a bit of ebaying for other people and try to earn a little commission. Just as well that every little helps, as that's about the level I'm earning at the mo!

I did my assessment for textbrokers, but only scored a 3. Will keep looking, but not sure how many assignments are available to those with less than a 4.

Off to the flicks tonight. Will try to take own popcorn and see if DH doesn't notice until its too late.....

Yay, think I've sold a horse rug. Just got to confirm details of post costs. It's amazing how encouraging, little tiny bits of money coming in can be (I have no salary).

Think I'm running out of bits to sell though....

A nice low spend day today.

Am feeling rather chirpy and optimistic today. Have a couple of money making plans (how dodgy does that sound? Lol!) and even if they don't succeed at least I feel I'm doing something.

Paid a £7 dog lead sale OP.

Yay, saw the sun today!

Rug money came through, so that went as an OP. I've also sold another small thing & had some interested in my selling for them, so it's a start.

Really looking forward to a family weekend and a general relax. Feel very sleepy today!

Havent had time to come to MSE for a few days, but have been beavering away.

I went to an auction with a friend and have bought clothes and handbags which I have/ will be putting on eb*y etc. I've also sold some horsey gear through some horsey websites. I feel like the new Del Trotter! Not going to make a fortune, but at least it gives me a feeling of progress.

My AA membership renewal arrived the other day and I saved £100 by getting a price from the RAC and then asking the AA to match it. I do this every year... I have also switched electric supplier via the MSE switching club. Somehow it feels quite adventurous to change and I have to admit to being a bit nervous, though goodness knows why!

We also had a MSE Valentine's Day yesterday and it was LOVELY. No chocs or flowers, just a lovely card and the most delicious hubby cooked supper. I bought the wine (£7.99 Prosecco from Herr A and it was really nice).

We then romantically celebrated by making a £300 OP. Honestly, this is the only place in the world, where I could admit that without appearing a complete FREAK!!!! :-)

Will probably be quite a quiet week next week as the kids are on hols & I cant do much computer work bar the evenings.

Have a nice weekend peeps.

Another jacket sold today. Don't know if I am getting richer, but am certainly getting tidier!

Seem to have spent most of my day creating a spreadsheet to keep track of my transformation into Mr Trotter.

Think my eyes are back to front....

It must be the season for selling... I noticed a few of us doing the same lol
