    Prize bruises on foot, legs, knees, arms, hand, shoulder and my behind! but nothing is broken. Good job it's too cold to wear a skirt!

    Much resting and marking was done. I'm quite chuffed with myself. I have some marking to do tomorrow and then I am chilling in the glorious last day of the hols.

    I have just advertised 3 bags on ebay and a ring. OMG. I am so proud of myself.

    I have done all my marking except one unit. Im sure that can wait a few weeks. Last day of hols. I just paid for some kitchen stuff. I am not sure if I should add this to my spending I think so so today I spent £3.

    Thank you both I am feeling better now. I was v tired today and rested a lot on my day off. I did a tiny bit of marking, some tidying and had a NSD. I am hoping a lady is coming tomorrow evening to buy some of my rubbish on facebay. I hope I can declutter a bit.

    Hello Kitty, it is Thursday evening and the mother of the fleabay shopper came and only had £20 instead of £22 so I gave it to her. I am delighted to have cleared out more stuff. I will have made £47 in total and decluttered too.

    On a negative front however, I have accidentally spent £0.90 in canteen at work but I had a bothersome student to deal with and it was that or vodka. lol
