Hooray for the two sacks of stuff (I'll put to one side how inadequate this makes me feel ).

Why are you feeling awful, Jwil, is it just a bug or are you particularly tired? Hope you manage to get a bit more rest.

Thank you

I'm absolutely exhausted and have no energy. Combined with that I have SPD (pelvic pain) which is really uncomfortable. At least the SPD will go when the baby is born even if the tiredness doesn't

Well done on completing the rug - that is fab and a lovely personal touch too - its for little jwils room isn't it? Ooh when the other little jwil arrives i wonder what we'll call them?

good you have cleared more things out and enjoyed time with family too :T

And your payments are looking great :T

Thanks DDFW I'm going to have to come up with new nicknames for them both I think, or just revert to DS etc..

Yes, the rug is for his room. He appears to like it thankfully! I might see if I can post a pic.

You're still doing really well jwil, despite not feeling 100% and sleep deprivation.
I really need to get some stuff sorted and listed. I have been side tracked somewhat by way of 'the Kon Marie method' :rotfl:
So when I sort some of my stuff out, I just want it gone-out of the house ASAP!
Real life has also got in the way for me too.
Hopefully it'll all be back to normal in a few weeks.

Thanks tattycath I love the Kon Mari method, I can't do it at the moment, as there's too much stuff. I'm following the principal of things 'sparking joy' though, and that means some things leave where they may not have before.

I did tell a colleague about that and physically handling an item. She had recently decluttered a bookshelf. She went back and picked up each book off it, and as a result got rid of loads more that she had previously wanted to keep! It's weird how it works.

Well I had my scan on Wednesday and all looks good thankfully And it appears we may be having a girl

I would have been very happy with a boy, but it will be nice to have one of each

I did manage to have a little burst of energy yesterday and sorted out a load of stuff which has been photo'd ready for ebay. It's tidied up a stack of stuff in the house, and will be a load out of the house once it's gone.

Also my relatives came round yesterday, so I had a last minute panic to tidy up. One thing that got achieved is I removed a load of cobwebs as one of my relatives is spider -phobic. So something that I haven't got round to for ages has now been done :T

I am paying for it today though with my pelvis. Tomorrow we are supposed to be going up to do some more of the Shaun the Sheep trail in Bristol so will see how I feel with regards to that.

Hope everyone is well

Wooo-hoooo, exciting times - a pink Jwil :j

Shame about the SPD, I've never had it but I know how painful it can be .

I saw a couple of Shauns up at Cribbs the other day, lots of people posing to have their photos taken with them.

We saw another load yesterday in the city centre. It was packed! We get a photo of little jwil at them all if he feels like cooperating.

jwil

As we were up in Bristol most of the day yesterday nothing has been done. I'm feeling the effects today, but going to try and plod on and get some stuff sorted/listed. Fingers crossed DH will as well.

It's absolutely chucking it down here, so no car booting today and no excuse.

I've sold two items this weekend that I only listed on Friday so that's good.

I'm planning on using all my free listings up, but I've only got 9 left after relists, so that's not going to be too hard

Hope everyone is well, and massive hugs to those who need them at this moment xx

Well I haven't achieved an awful lot today, nor has DH though he is flicking through some magazines, so hopefully they will be going.

I have got rid of a couple of books, and sold a few items on ebay. I've also managed to get some listing done as well so that's at least something.

I think there's a fair bit of bulk going out between me and DH on ebay today so that will be a little more removed thankfully.

We've got a week away in October, so I need to start thinking about the accommodation and ferry and get some money put aside for that.

Our washing machine is also playing up and although it's still working at the moment, we are probably better off buying a new one as it will be getting a lot more wear again soon when the new baby is here, so we also need to start looking into that. If we get a new one, then perhaps I can persuade DH to finally get rid of this one and the old one that came with us from our old house :mad: I'll probably stick them on ebay for pennies and see if someone will give us something for them, save us taking them to the tip.

Just bumping this so I can find it again.

And preparing my targets for next month:

3.[STRIKE]£1886[/STRIKE] - £1886 LI

I've reduced the number of targets, but still been very ambitious so we'll see how I get on.

jwil

Have caught up with surveys again, and made a payment to one of my debts (not in the targets above).

Not much else to report. Not sure whether to have a clean up this afternoon or try and get some more listed. Will see how things go.

I do have to print postage for a few ebay lots as that rather annoyingly wasn't working this morning, but that should just take a few mins hopefully.
