    Yes, thanks, but got to admit - have been in a bit of a mood :o

    Had an early night, last night (only way I could stop thinking how stupid I have been :()

    and woke up this morning to find I had to parcel up 7 parcels :eek: to wrap and address, all a bit of a rush as I had not planned for so many, if any, at all :)

    However all seems to be worth the effort, for the moment. So another 5 (i think) was listed, still striving for that 3 figures, and every time I'm nearly there, more get sold, well that's what their listed for :D

    Got a busy weekend ahead ?

    Early rise, this morning ~ with loads of plans ~ and we all know what happens with the best laid plans.

    2 washings done and out as weather seems to be brightening up. Dragged another bag out and sorting through for listing inbetween parcelling a couple more for posting later.

    Have a collection of sorts and used to buy 1 a month on payday to build up my collection (before MFW days) and quite a few duplicated when I was buying bulk on the bay, so filed in back of mind - I need to go through and sort ones I don't need. Job for a rainy day.

    On planned list was window washing but have now been invited out for lunch, so they will have to wait.

    Now need to start getting ready and looking spare gift box for a new home present.

    Have a lovely Saturday.

    Here I am a week later. Managed to hit my target of 3 figures listed eventually, but was a hard slog for some reason. Have spent far too much time on this but will hopefully reap the rewards later:D

    Everything is piling up behind me, pushing me closer to the edge of the cliff, however managed to cling on, whilst work was a struggle this week, but my lie in this morning was very welcome.

    Up and although still tired, have managed to clear up, washing gathered and all my ironing done:j just need to put it all away now. Will then spend maybe another hour listing even more.

    That's 4 bags now empty (cheated a little) as 2 bags were ironing :rotfl:

    On o/p front I received my bonus for switching my account :) So maybe £30 into the pot and have decided to use the £100 left for MB :eek: Watch this space :rotfl:

    Me toes in the water now :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Right so 1 item listed so far this morning, and have found out - at last !!! its better for me to type up a draft and add photos later - much quicker for me :j

    Washing is on, bed stripped so next is - whatever I feel, so much to do, really need some time off and also need to relax more.

    Bins need emptied, washing put out, kitchen & bathroom floor need cleaned, along with all windows, hoovering and dusting, kitchen blind needs changed, bed changed, grass cut, shopping - food and need new shoes :) for walking to work, and a general tidy up and of course the usual listing, that can take hours, and edge even closer to MB :o

    Doesn't seem a lot putting it like that, just wish I had two days time fitted into 1 day :D

    Off to make a start. Have a lovely Sunday.

    Update - just got my 1st sale of the weekend :)

    Great news on sales AFK. You really do need to get some rest though.

    Hope you get everything done that needs done.

    Thanks, thats bathroom cleaned and floor done, nice clean towels hung up, job for another day - is grouting where the shower is, badly needs done - job I hate, only because so time consuming. (why do I need to be such a perfectionist).

    Next is washing to be hung out and another load on and re make bed.

    How long do you have left before you start back? The schools here start on Tuesday so that means back to buses being late and loads more traffiic on the road.

    Off to hang washing out while its sunny.
