I hope everyone had a nice day yesterday
We had a lovely one. I have a nice pile of books to work my way through
We had a nice flurry of sales on ebay yesterday so I've got a load of packing to do. At least it will get rid of some of the boxes that I've been saving from deliveries etc. A few long time things have sold which is always good.
The kids were thoroughly spoilt, and are very happy with their items, however, I am wondering where I will put it all! We'll have another chilled out day today and then will worry about it another time!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".
