Another break now. Although I did read a sneaky chapter of a book earlier!
Didn't do the wardrobe but have cleared out under our bed (and nearly killed my back lifting it to hoover under it!). I now have several boxes of stuff to go through and sort out. I haven't looked at most of it for many many years so I aim to be ruthless.
I've pulled out a few nappies to sell. Whilst I love the patterns, I don't get on with the style, so I've decided they must go
The video also appears to be working fine so that one will be getting listed shortly. I've tried to find another one that I had, but no luck so will have to leave that for another time.
I've cleared a chest of drawers so will use that for little jwil's clothes now rather than having them stacked everywhere!

I've done a bit more tidying. Am now going to list a few things on ebay and then will have a sit down for an hour or so before going to take the dogs out and pick up little jwil."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

I didn't get my sit down and time out as DH came home and got in my way
. I have now however, listed 70 items on ebay :T :T There were a lot of similar ones where I just needed to change the photo and title, so that's why I managed so many.
Best go and get little jwil now."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

What a day you've put in, Jwil. :T
I'm deeply embarrassed, I've done virtually nothing.
Thigs are really going to have to improve - meanwhile, I will carrying on getting inspiration from you, it might kick me into action.0 -

Thanks Guys
I've had a more relaxed day today. Mooching around while watching the Hunger Games. I sorted out a bag of stuff.
I've caught up on surveys, and done 8 listings for DH. I'm now doing some for me. I've got 3 more to do and that will be 14 for me today.
I'll then need to sort some more stuff out.
I've sold 2 items today, so packed those. I've got a few more sales going out tonight and tomorrow so that's good.
A couple of items I listed yesterday are selling now so I'm pleased with that.
I phoned up my insurance co to cancel my house insurance renewal as it had gone up and I could get it much cheaper elsewhere. They've given me a nice discount on that, so I've stayed where I am for another year which saves me some hassle."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

Hey everyone, hope you are all well.
We've been off car booting this morning. I managed to pick up 5 pairs of trousers for little jwil for £2.50! Really pleased as 3 of them are Next and one still has the tags on it!
Since we've been home I've had a look through the boxes that I pulled out from under the bed the other day. I have 2 big boxes of paperwork to go, a box of electrical items for recycling, and a box of general bits and nick nacks to go. Also a bag of bits for the car boot. I've also now got 3 nice plastic food containers for the kitchen, as these were being used to store nick nacks.
I sold quite a bit on ebay yesterday, and a couple of items have sold this morning as well. I've got another load going out later of which about 12 are selling so far, so I'm going to have a nice lot of packing to do. DH is also currently selling 10 items and just sold something on BIN as well. That will be loads out of the house :T :T
Little jwil is napping so DH is sorting a few things out for ebay. We will be doing a tip run later on so all that stuff sorted will be gone today :T

Thanks Abba. I get most of little jwil's clothes from car boots, it's always named brands that I'd never pay full price for."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0
