Hey Jwil,


Congratulations on your pregnancy. x


I see you are still making good progress on your raising cash every month. Good luck with trying to clear some space for baby # 2.

Hi jwil, how's your poorly boy now? I hope he's much better and that your morning sickness is easing.
How's the sales going? I have managed a few sales here and there. The piles of stuff are gradually going down. Still got lots to list though.

Hey tattycath Little man is much better now thank you. Only was a 24 hr thing really.

Morning sickness seems to be coming and going. Today appears to be a good day so I am trying to get on.

Well done on the sales!

Hey everyone

Hope you are all well.

I'm trying to keep as busy as possible, but not doing very well with keeping up on here

I've put a few things on recently and had some sales, but not managed to pay anything extra as the cash has been covering bills.

I'm really pleased today as I've sold 2 bulky items :T Also a couple of the items I sold at the weekend were reasonably bulky too, so there's some space getting made.

I don't know why but the house seems to be getting worse rather than better. :eek: Even DH commented the other day that he keeps filling the spaces I'm clearing :mad:

I'm sure there will come a point where it starts going down. It's got to happen soon!

I've managed to get a few bits listed this morning, and have identified the next pile to be tackled, so hopefully will get some more sorted out later.

I've also managed to do 3 loads of washing and have it all outside, so fingers crossed it will all dry today as well.

So much to do, so I need to try and take advantage of feeling reasonably well.

I've been keeping up with surveys and have managed to get £15 in amazon vouchers this week. I'm using them to stock up on boxes and packaging for my ebay sales. That makes it much easier to get things ready for post.

Hey everyone

Hope you are all well.

I managed to get a few things sorted yesterday, but not listed, so at least they are ready for another time.

I'm feeling absolutely exhausted today, the complete opposite to yesterday. I'm not sleeping well, so that's probably why.

Just spotted on my email that DH has sold another bulky item, That's really good as it's too big to fit in the banana boxes we tend to use for storing our ebay stuff, so it will be nice to have that gone.

Going out tomorrow to meet friends and try a new cafe, so looking forward to that. Not overly sure what the plans for the rest of the weekend are yet, so we'll see. I plan on selling at the car boot on Monday if it's dry, and we'll probably have a mooch at some of the usual ones at other points in the weekend.

Hope everyone has a good one

Well done on another bulky sale it's nice when you see a bit of space xx

jwil

Thanks abba

Well didn't achieve an awful lot at the weekend, we went to the beach on Saturday afternoon which was nice. Sunday and Monday we looked around the car boots, but didn't sell, so that was not so good.

We have sorted out some more stuff to go and I did get a few bits listed on ebay.

Cannot wait until payday. I'm absolutely skint now as put the last of my money in the car this morning. This month seems to have been a very long one and I don't think next month is going to be any different.

I've got car tax due this month. I'm contemplating doing 6 months rather than the year, but that means it will be due again in December, which is not any better, and in fact is probably worse as it's when I'm due. So I'll probably suck it up again and do the year.

One of my credit cards has written to me telling me they are putting up the interest rate :mad:. Debating on whether to close it and pay off at current rate, or leave it open, as even with the rate rise it is my lowest rate and might be open to a balance transfer in the future.

I'm still feeling pretty grotty and everything seems to be such a struggle at the moment. I need to be getting on with things!

Hope everyone is well

Thank you It's not for me though, I don't want any more direct debits at the moment while things are precarious.

I went for 6 months in the end. I'll probably regret it come December!
