"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". Eoin McGee1 -
3 eBay parcels posted this morning for DH. Because they were bundles of items, and people bought more than 1, it's actually 42 items gone
that is satisfying! Especially as it's bulky stuff which is a pain. It also meant I got rid of a fairly annoying box which has been hanging around for years but turned out to be the perfect size for one awkward item.
Little miss hasn't gone swimming today as she's got a stinking cold, it started yesterday. Hopefully a restful day will mean she's ok for tomorrow. A day doing nothing is very appealing to me too!"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".

Well done on the parcels. I am having no luck at all at the moment. I think I need to go through the listings and clear some stuff to the charity shop.

It's going to be a quieter month for PADs, but still making them so all good.
DH's is picking up a bit, though this stuff was all more newly listed. We'll probably leave ours until after Christmas and then review some of the older stuff.ladyholly said:Well done on the parcels.

London trip today! We had chinese last night for the first time in ages. I was quite thirsty overnight, so I've been up early this morning, so I could drink loads of water and then hopefully empty my bladder of it all before we get on the train
I'm looking forward to it, but a bit anxious about whether it's going to be crazy busy on the trains as well as in the city. We've got seats booked so fingers crossed.
The cat vomited after I fed her, so that was a delightful gift to clear up."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". Eoin McGee2 -
