    Hi jwil . Was just bumbling around in here and read your last post. The spd bit jumped out at me. I had it with both mine and even now, 10 years after DD was born, just the mere mention of it brings back such horrible memories. I have oodles of sympathy for you. Sending positive vibes that it doesn't progress too far.

    Thanks for popping in MoneyMission :)

    Fingers crossed the belt will help. I had it with DS but it didn't start until very late, but this time it's started really early so time to nip it in the bud.

    I feel sorry for anyone who's had to put up with it!

    Just had the reminder from the vet about the dog and cat annual check ups. I pay for the cat and DH pays for the dog.

    I'll probably leave them until next payday as the cat will be needing a dental I'm sure, so that will be a hefty bill. Unless of course I sell loads between now and then.

    I've done 21 listings so far and am still (kind of) going strong.

    Hi jwil well done with those payments and listings and considered purchases - you're doing fab :T

    How much did you get listed ?

    I do hope the belt you bought helps you - i've no knowledge / experience of spd but i remember how tough it was for you last time ((hugs))

    Do your pets have an annual check up as something you set up or is it something which is recommended? I've just not heard of it before and am curious :) x

    Thanks abba :)

    That's awful, I'm not that bad. It is getting worse though so I'm hoping the belt will help.

    Thanks DDFW :)

    I managed 37 listings in the end :T One had been bid on this morning, and there were several watchers on others so I'm hoping for some sales.

    The annual pet check up is their vaccinations - they have the boosters each year. As part of that, they do a general health check as well.

    Off to meet a friend for breakfast this morning. Then we have BIL visiting. I have suggested to DH that I go up and sell at the car boot on my own today. It's been ages since we've done one and need to clear some stuff.

    It will also give me a bit of child free time as well. We'll have to see how I get on this morning.

    Two small items sold on ebay :T
