    Good Morning!

    I am not due in work until midday today so I have the morning to potter about.

    I am temping and the work hours are 12-5 everyday and I work as an in-store demonstrator on Saturdays and sundays. I wonder if there is something I could do in the mornings - temporary whilst doing the temp job - any ideas?

    I was hoping to get paid today so I could put another overpayment on the mortgage but its not come through yes so will have to do it Monday (if I get paid!).

    Mr Lema and I have decided not to save for a motorhome and concentrate on the mortgage reduction plan.

    I have a couple of items on ebay but no bids as of yet and have put some bits on f/b but no interest at all. Will take everything to the car boot in a few weeks when the weather gets better

    signed up to be a mystery shopper today. Every bit of money counts and this will go straight into the pot.

    Not doing very well on ebay at the moment. Have had a few things on put nothing sold. Think I will have to do a bootie.

    Nothing else to report
