I've sold quite a few dvds on ebay - every one i've put on has sold. xBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I've found this too IA - I'm not putting any more of DD's stuff on at the moment as it's TOO NICE to sell for 99p!!!!!!!!!
Out of interest (& to give me some ideas;) ...) what kind of things are you finding sell well at the moment?
By the way...WELL DONE on your achievements this month...with everything else that's happened (car etc) I think you've done fantastically!!:T
Also - with K & her sleep (or lack of...:rotfl: ) - does she have a dummy? My DD (1 next week:eek: ) has a dummy & she wakes in the night & moans for us to go & put dummy back in:mad: . I know from experience with my DS1 that I need to get rid of the dummy, so that she'll learn to settle herself when she wakes in the night (which apparently we all do!!) It's just she's quite attached to it..and I haven't got the energy to do the controlled crying thing at the moment! Am also worried that she'll wake up DS1 & 2 in the middle of the night if we leave her to cry!!
However, both DS1 & 2 didn't really sleep through the night til they were over 1:eek: & used to be up at 5.00am EVERY DAY!! It does get easier...they're now 4 & 7 & easily sleep 7 -7.

!!!!!!!! I just wrote a massive long update only to be a complete thick head and refresh the page by accident :mad::mad::mad::wall::wall::wall:
*sigh*
Anyway... try again :mad:.
Today is wednesday, hurrah! I like wednesdays. I like them because they're tax credits days and we don't feel *quite* as skint. :rotfl: That soon changes though. Petrol in the car.. food...bumph.... skint again. lol :rolleyes:
On the brighter side wednesdays means me can climb another couple of steps up the 'debt free' ladder by adding more money. lol. So now in savings we have £68.67, plus the £130.59 on it's way from paypal.
Also this morning I checked topcashback to see that I'd had another £51.85 become payable...but I can't request it til the 29th because I've already had 2 payments processed recently :rolleyes: One of the merchants that became payable was the one involved with the 'SS offer' (if you did it you'll know what I mean which also means that Ste's £50 will become payable soon tooThe original plan was to use cashback money for christmas but seeing as we've got the shortfall to make up for because of the car and everything we're going to have to use it for that. We're going to use my wages for christmas now
So fingers crossed for lots of overtime
K did really well last night. She had a bottle at 6.10, and bath at 6.30 and after a bit of initial resistance went to sleep around 7.30. We then didn't hear from her until about 4.30am and in all she woke up twice. :T Doesn't sound great but the main achievement was not hearing from her until 4.30am as she normally wakes up a good 2 or 3 times in the evening for whatever reason. :rolleyes:
ASHLI however.. decided that 3.30am was a good time to wake up and start calling mummy from the (luckily stairgated) door. Thankfully after a few mins she realised that A)Bed was a much warmer and comfier place to be andMummy wasn't getting out of bed for love nor money :rotfl: so she went back to bed only to wake up a couple hours later. :wall: It's like they're both conspiring against us!!! gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Aaaanyway... Ebay update...3 of 4 items selling and currently on £21.99 :T Fingers crossed!! They finish friday night so have plenty of time yet
Ste's still waiting for his double pedal... apparently it's somewhere in this country though as yesterday it arrived in Vauxhall (was coming from Germany) so I reckon it'll arrive today.Fingers crossed anyway Ste needs to get practicing for sunday!! lol!
I'll stop yabbering on for nowHope everyone's well!

If it makes you feel any better I'm knackered too. My DD (who is 10) kept coming in this morning at 4.30 saying, come on mummy time to get up. Bless she thought it was time to go to club already, she really doesn't understand wait (unless it's in the car while I find, shoes, keys, phone, bag, coat). So, as I didn't get to bed until 1.30 because I was watching curb your enthusiasm / top gear road trip US, I'm tired! So, look on the bright side at least one day yours might grow into sleeping, mine's not looking good:A

On a seperate note that top gear US road trip is possibly the funniest thing I've EVER seen... :rotfl:Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043
