Today has been a good day!
I have got half my spreadsheet done and an online training course that needed to be completed ASAP, keeps the boss off my back.
Walked to the parcel shop this afternoon.
Had a NSD, parcel postage was paid for by customers.
Listed 6 items on eBay would have done more if I had not been on the computer all-day.
Manage to dry two lines of washing, very amazed as the sky has looked very black all day.
Eaten food that is in the house, dinner is cooking, Steak & Kidney pie, potatoes and vegetable.
Made an over payment to CC1.
I will be having an early night after eating dinner having a bath and watching Murder Island, I hope it good, haven't heard anything to say its not any good. Fingers crossed.

After a very early start I have achieved plenty today.
Spreadsheet from yesterday now finished and my to do list for the day completed. Out and about most of tomorrow so pleased with what I have achieved today
Some household chores done, dinner is cooking and we have eaten from the cupboards/fridge/freezer. I went to the waste recycling centre at lunchtime along with the post office, postage was £1.53 and I called into the Charity Shop and spent £2.00 both come out of my business account.
Made another overpayment of £2.10 to Barclaycard and I started my Christmas shopping online. The majority of my Christmas shopping will be online this year as I still feel anxious going into big shops, small ones are bad enough. So not a NSD for me.
The items I put on Facebook have gone which I am pleased about as I didn't get messed around with people not collecting and its more stuff gone from our house.
Couple of items to list on eBay and that's me done for the day, Mr D is cooking dinner this evening and I will be having another early night. I am hoping and praying for a goodnights sleep.

Had a super early start this morning, out by 7am, spent £2.80 on a bacon roll and a coffee lunchtime Not the most healthiest lunch but time was limited today. Missed an important Zoom meeting today as I put it in my diary for next Friday, boss was not very happy.
Looking forward to the weekend as its been busy work week.

Having a busy weekend.
Yesterday we went to a local farmers market and pick up bread, fruit, vegetable and some lovely free range eggs, sadly no duck eggs this week. Spend roughly £10.00, love going to the farers market and supporting the local community. The market is on every week we tend to go once or twice a month, there is a lovely atmosphere there and everyone is so friendly and has time for a chat.
Yesterday afternoon I cleaned out the greenhouse ready to close for the winter, our tomato crop has been amazing this year, did do to well with cucumber this year will try again next year, fingers crossed for better results.
Binge watched a few episodes of "All creatures great and small" before having an early night.
Up early this morning and travel about 16 miles to a car boot sale, our local car boot never reopened after the second lock down so I haven't been in a long time. Spent £38.00 on items for my eBay shop, pick up some lovely things to sell for Christmas, sadly this was the last one of the year, I really enjoyed walking around finding treasure. I have had my eBay business for a few years and it ticks over. Will be looking to build up my shop over the next few months as this is part of my plan to generate income when I finish working full time.
Plans for this afternoon is to dismantle a set of bunkbed I have sold and are being collected early next week. I also have some parcels to pack ready to post tomorrow. I have a chicken cooked for dinner later and some more " All creatures great and small" I think.
