    Good morning all, having real trouble sleeping last night so up bright and early :( Am so tired have got a headache. Hopefully a nice shower and some Paracetamol will set me right for the day.

    Well the last week has finally found me back on e-bay. I've only listed 3 items but at least it's a start. Got a watcher on one item but I'm hoping to sell the 3 items (fingers crossed).

    Job going absolutely superbly. Am enjoying every single minute of it and loving having Friday's off. Went to the M&S sale last Friday and spend £128 but bought loads and loads of clothes so feel as though I've really had my money's worth.

    Not much else happening on the money front, still waiting to make my millions. Hope you all have a good week.

    Thanks KP, I just don't know what has happened to all the time I had. I seem to be constantly on the go. Will try and keep you all posted though.

    Everything good with you?
  • Yes thanks a few mood swaings but will get over it. I have relative job security so no major worries there at the moment. Money fairly settled as long as I dont go on any benders.

    Dont forget at least a weekly up date though or I get worried!

    I can understand your worry over DDs sleepover. It doesn't get any easier...mums eh...we do worry. Hopefully now she's done it the novelty will have worn off. Have the sleepover at yours, that way you can keep your eye on them, Bless em.

    I don't believe in the concept of hell, but if I did I would think of it as filled with people who were cruel to animals.

    Hi Guys,

    Have got very little to update with. Am loving working a 4 day week, had got a dedicated shopping and cleaning day now which leaves the weekend free.

    Everything in life is sweet at the moment, still enjoying the job, slowly getting back into e-bay and having a lovely time with J so am hoping that all this will continue.

    Catch you all later.

    GR x

    Good afternoon all and Happy Easter. Have had another brilliant week, feeling on top of the world with regards to work. Can't believe how much happier I am these days.

    Had a thought this morning - I contacted Barclays and Northern Rock back last year regarding mis-sold PPI on some loans and an old credit card. Have not got the details or account numbers of any of the loans but thought I'd try my luck anyway. Have realised today that I've not heard anything from them so have just written to them again in the hope that this time I'll be acknowledged.

    Not much happening on the money front for me at the moment, still plodding on with the £2 coins although there doesn't seem to be many of them around. Am also going to count the money jar this afternoon. Have decided I'd really like to go on holiday this year even if it's only for a week so I'm going to concentrate on saving to go. Wish me luck guys.

    OK, operation holiday has started, I don't care what time of the year we go as long as we go. Have counted the penny jar and there's £12 in there so I've bagged it all up. E-Bay and Amazon here I come again!
  • Ooooh holiday, sounds great and even better when you have saved for it.
