    Well done :T
    Oh, How I would love to have sold 21 items all in one go, not so good part is parcelling them all up though.

    1 item sold during the night and had a rush to parcel this morning ready for posting. Will continue with some more tonight.

    Princess Lou - it's not easy, but once listed, I just keep relisting and adding new listings, that way build up total over time. And when listing, found out they had changed the format, hate when they do that, just as i'm getting used to one way, then change it.
    Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:

    Thanks ELE, clear items - earn ££'s win win :) quite a lot were relists though. Thought about more tonight, but ended up in the kitchen - batch cooking - which was not planned. Well its my version of batch cooking, made up 9 dinners 3 different lots and have 6 - deluxe apple sausages i'm not sure what to do with.


    Payday is Thursday, but will have to wait a whole week more to see my mortgage reduce, and not being allowed to o/p any more is agony. It's just not the same putting all o/p's into a "nominated" bank account, I want to see that figure reduce as quick as possible, till it's gone !!!


    Sometimes I get carried away - well my mind does - it races ahead thinking if I could gather some extra ££'s I could be MF in 2 years :rotfl: Nice thought, but not going to happen - or could it :D;) :dance:

    :hello: Bexster


    No, didn't lose any sleep last night, but this little voice keeps saying to me . . . . . . 2 years, how nice that would be, could I do it?, what would I need to o/p to meet that deadline? :eek: not changing my MF target at the moment, but . . . . . . . :D . . . . . . . watch this space. . . . . . . ;)


    How are things with you, progressing well, I hope? any updates ??

    Hi

    I start my new job mid sept and have got my p45 this week! :beer:

    Am very excited about the new job. I have started a life coaching course which sits well with my business development. Will wait and see how the new job goes before a few more big decisions are made.

    Have started doing some grown up investment planning ( mainly for retirement :eek:) but also some very non- grown up having fun!

    Managed to get 16 posted yesterday, and the other 5 paid whilst i was in work and therefore too late. Not had chance today for the other 5, but have them all packaged and ready for tomorrow. Managed to list another 14 items tonight as well!
