    Thanks jwil.
    Meeting went well-I think.
    I'm struggling a bit tonight and in pain. :(
    Think I may have slightly overdone things today :o
    Dishwasher emptied and refilled an on.
    Washing machine finished
    Dryer on and stuff ready to go in.
    I am now resting-well, I've been doing some hand sewing, but I am sat down with feet up now.

    Yet again, I can't sleep!
    So, after trying for over an hour, I have given up and am going to make myself a hot milky drink and see if that helps!
    So much stuff going on in my mind just now!
    Oh and according to my eb@y it's free listing again this weekend! :)

    Right, I've decided that tomorrow I'm going to try and list my socks off !
    I need to get rid of as much clutter as possible and the as much money as I can.
    This way I can hopefully
    A) reach and exceed my target saving
    B) have a back up so I know if we do have any financial emergencies, I can sort it relatively quickly and painlessly!

    Grey and miserable here today, but at least it isn't raining at the moment and it's quite mild.
    Managed a better nights sleep last night. I had my last caffeine rush at 6.45pm and had a glass of sherry before bed.
    Obviously I can't drink sherry every night to help me get off to sleep but we'll see how tonight goes. :)
    Got lots to so today and I'm behind schedule already due to sleeping in and having a couple of cups of tea just to wake me up a bit.
    DD1is dying my hair for me today.
    Then I have to list, list, list!
    Was hoping to do some baking too, but will have to see what time I have left.
    I'm aiming for at least 20 listings, and a few relists-fingers crossed.
    No financials to report today. It will be a no spend day, yesterday was a NSD too!
    Right, better get on!

    Managed to get over 20 listings up today.

    DD1 also baked a cake and when she has cleared up after herself I might bake too!

    Moved some money around tonight. I now have £300 savings. :D
    I have now paid off £157/£1400
    Must pay it all off ASAP. And not order anything else!
    Sold something on bay of e today-should be about £8 after fees! :)
    I didn't manage to get any baking done. :o
    But I did end up helping clear up the kitchen.
    I still managed a no spend day, but Mr tc went to the shop for ingredients for DD1 and he treated us to a takeaway too.
    Got to be good all week now, I worry until I know he knows what's happening with 'the big bill.'
    Just got to keep concentrating on getting some savings behind us and pay off the rest of my catalogue bill.
    Right, time for bed.
