    Mixture of appointments and out with DD today.

    Felt good when I managed to clear out some bits and make space in the cupboard. I forgot how good decluttering felt.

    Two lots of washing done as well. Rabbits have also been cleaned out.
    bedding is tomorrows job. 
    I also used my electric sanded to sand the wood worktop and have re-oiled it. 

    Started to list items to sell. One sold, one with a bid on it. Had some offers but nowhere near what it should go for so holding out.

    My dad is going to help me tidy the garage. I can do it myself however, I’m petrified of spiders and I just keep going in to do it, seeing one and having to leave. 

    Ideally could do with an extra £200 this month so going to get selling and searching and decluttering. 

    The drs appointment was ok. They’ve changed the medication so hopefully this one suits me better. 
    Hope everyone has a lovely evening x

    I have an electric sander, last used at my sons house, now we can’t find it and I need it. What makes it worse is that I was the one who last used it. Remember I put it in. Bag to bring it home but then that’s it.

    Love it when I have a busy productive day, with a bath at the end.xx

    No bath tonight as I’m too hot but that would be my go to normally as well! 

    I’m hoping this medication helps too. I have a review in 4 weeks to see. 

    I do like productive days and this has been good. X

    Selling is going okay. I’ve managed about £20 in the last two days. I’ve got another item with a bid. Should hopefully bring in £30.

    DD has asked for a pj day today 😂 think she is tired. 

    Got other items listed but will see how they go. None have bids up to now.

    I haven’t had a pj day in a long time! Since lockdown one really. I hated wasting the day so vowed to get dressed before I went downstairs no matter what day and it’s been like that for two years now!

    I do like getting home in the winter to a hot bath, pjs and then relaxing. 

    I needed fuel today so that’s a cost! I only put in a little bit as I don’t need loads in the holiday.

    Clubs day today until after lunch so just watching DD. 

    Overdraft is fluctuating as I’m making sales I’m not dipping into savings though and after this month my money will settle down. It’s been unpredictable because I’ve earned the money but it’s not all come through yet. If it had, there wouldn’t be any issue. X

    Well done on the decluttering, it’s a good feeling, just wish I did it a bit more often!

    Fingers crossed for the new medication.
