    Have finally caught up with Fred. Thank you Pigpen, Deco, Tarotangel and Froddington. Dog's ashes were returned while I was out yesterday, so I'll send them on to her previous owner tomorrow and then I can move on.

    GWS vibes to MMM's DD, Macpep1's DD, Ionafan, Mrs MP, TMD-id's DS, Lamewolf (excellent news about Dave) and Macpep - Ebay values buyer's more than sellers, so no matter how honest you are dodgy buyers abound. What with pretty much always siding with buyers and rising postage costs you can't charge for, I'd say they're killing the golden goose.

    Not a lot of flying going on here today. The sitting room carpet still needs some attention, but I want a day off.
    Better is good enough.

    just eaten a frog. my son accidentally locked my phone after i gave it him because i couldnt get on with it. ive put off sorting it out as i thought it would be a nightmare, i just googled unlocking puk mobiles and tesco live chat came up, someone really kind and patient person using non technical words, gave me the number and its working again, brill - i am such a wuss.

    decluttering that and the boxes off the table now - ive had it in bits all over the table as someone said id need the sim and battery numbers im amazed i hadnt lost any of it.
    PUK number now written down just in case
    SPC~12 ot 124

    In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind

    Hello, I'm in again this week, better late than never. After a lie in this morning (I forgot to set the alarm) and having only just finished the paid stuff, this evening I will be baking cakes for a charity fundraiser.

    But I have done some jobs from the lists this week.

    I agree about the comments re e*ay. Capped postage and terrible buyers, I think when the stuff I've listed has finished I'll give up. Sometimes I think I'd rather give things away.

    Have a great evening everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Well after I wasted this morning waiting on mw I am struggling to get motivated but I really need to get into gear as I have so much to do.

    I am going to get into flying mode for the next two hours and I am aiming to:
    Do another load of washing and empty TD
    Make the dinner - chicken fajitas & salad
    Dust the living room
    Clear the mantlepiece and dust
    Dust living room for cobwebs
    Make millionaire shortbread and a cake whilst the oven is on
    HHI
    Change the facecloths and towels in the bathroom
    Give mum a quick call to see how she is feeling, as wasn't too well yesterday

    I think that is probably more than enough to keep me busy for the next couple of hours. I will return later to update what I have managed to get done.

    It was a successful late afternoon flying and I managed to get most of my shortened list completed. The only things that I did not manage to do was the HHI. I will need to finish off the cakes tomorrow as need to leave them to set.

    Mrs mp I hope things improve for your friends :(

    I'm waaay behind as had two very manic days of paid stuff. Although lots of washing done over weekend and mil has ironed for me.

    Will play catch up tomorrow although my mum is visiting, with my aunt and her grandson, so will be drinking tea, nattering and making lunch.

    We are actually not too bad, although I could do with some time to sort through kids clothes, DDs especially.

    Hugs sticks and spoons for all!
