    Wow 5am :eek:. That's some serious dedication. Well done :T.
    You're doing so well with the decluttering and selling bits. You've definitely motivated me to pull my finger out and sell some bits. Hope you have a lovely day today. :)

    Thank you :) I'm a morning person anyway so usually awake around 5am.

    Good luck with the selling :)

    I've cleaned the kitchen and bathroom. Also cleared out the fridge and gave it a good clean in advance of the food waste collection tomorrow. I've got Chicken Creole in the slow cooker which is using up some wilted veg and I will have mine with some other veg which needs using up. I'm going to make a fruit salad with some sorry looking fruit as well.

    I've sorted and tidied the packaging materials so they are all in one place again!

    Going to hang some washing out in the hope it will dry before the rain arrives.

    Hope you've enjoyed the potter. I am thinking of having a 20 minute power nap. Didn't sleep too well

    Thanks Brizzle. It was very nice! Definitely one to do again.

    I hope you had a nice nap. I can't sleep in the day, it makes me feel terrible. I haven't been sleeping well either. Thought exercise was meant to make you sleep better :rotfl: Hope you had a better night.

    I managed to be relatively productive yesterday. Prepped and photo'd lots of listings. Just need to get them on now.

    Little miss is in nursery today and I think little jwil wants a quiet day at home with his Lego so will see what I can get done today.

    I've finally got round to KM my postcard collection. I like to have a postcard from places I've been, but I in reality buy multiples and they all look much the same :rotfl: 273 gone!

    I might weed them out more once I do my photos. I'd like to keep both together so it tells the story of where I've been rather than have them separate.

    Yes, it's always nice to remember things like that. I want to make some decent albums that I can flick though with the postcards and the photos.
