    Yes, especially when we go to a car boot sale to sell them and they decide they are taking them home again!

    I did sell another item yesterday :T :T I haven't done any PADs though as nothing is working for me today :mad: My email is playing up, my work laptop is playing up, the whole world is against me :cry:

    It's obviously one of those days for me today, everything is just taking too long and stressing me out.

    I'm going to attempt to update the declutter list :)

    Morning everyone :)

    We had a fairly hectic weekend. I made a last minute decision on Saturday to attempt parkrun as penance for missing my run on Friday :o

    I managed it though :T I might have been almost last, but I was pleased with my time which was about 5 mins faster than I had expected. I've now got a baseline I can try and beat. I'm still aching though :rotfl: It was really nice how supportive people were though, even cheering you on as they were lapping you :D

    After that, we went into town as DH had to go for a medical. We decided to go and reclaim our lost savings account. It was a grand total of £7.82. Higher than I expected but not quite enough to retire on. I'm not sure it was value for money though as it took so long to close the account and cash it in. I did object as to why they wanted all my employment details etc when I was just trying to close an account :mad:

    Yesterday we had family down so it was a scrabble to clean round and then we were busy for the rest of the day. Family member paid for a meal out which was very kind of them and the meal was lovely so that made a nice change.

    Today I'm home with little jwil who just wants to chill out so I should get on with something rather than mess around on here!

    No sales for me this weekend, but DH has sold some so they were packed and most posted this morning. Just waiting for a couple to pay up.

    Just updated my spending diary. It's a bit of an eye opener! I'm going to build a spreadsheet for it and categorise it. I definitely need to meal plan more!

    Trying to do a Sainsburys uniform order for little jwil with the 25% off. The click and collect isn't working on the website. I've phoned up and it will be fixed later. I hope so! I'm not paying for delivery when I pass a store every time I go to work!

    Oh thank you I didn't know the 25% off was back on. Will have to have a look :rotfl:

    Hope you got it sorted
