I now have 17 items which I have previously listed but not sold which I could have listed this time but couldn't be bothered too search through all my stuff.. AND worse still.. I have 2 boxes of stuff which it doesn't look like I have ever listed as I have no turbolister file for them!! SO I have heaps of photo's to take AGAIN and loads of listings to do.. I am seriously considering listing most of them at 99p just to get rid.. but it seems an awful lot of hassle for 75p in the long term!!!
My chicken soup almost tastes palatable.. there's a small miracle.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Morning ladies
Nasty horrible mist and fog out there. As about three quarters of my one hour journey to work follows a river valley, I can see it's going to be a fun one this morning!
Must jump in the bath now and make sure I leave about 10 minutes earlier to cater for the weather.
Have a good one all

Well, here we go.
I have decided today is going to be the start of potty training my 2yr old (almost 3, I know i've left it late:o) He has got his undies on and he's very enthusiastic at the moment. Lets see how he is later lol.
I'll be starting on the kitchen when i get back from school run. just gotta get slow coach moving so he's ready on time. :mad: he loves school but takes sooooo long getting ready its like pulling teeth.Nothing to declare

Yay this is the first morning I've managed to fly before work, and I actually got up later, pressed snooze a few times. Kitchen is looking nice and clean and tidy, minus a few bits of camera kit which need putting away and the floor still needs to be swept.

I'm taking a mental health day off from work today - in other words, a well timed sickie before i melt from the pressure.
decided upon last night as DH is starting the day by delivering some equipment in the next village to the nursery. So he has taken charlie to nursery for me, and i have just eaten breakie, so now i need to actually get on and get dressed/do some of my school stuff so that i actually benefit from the day off, and clear some work. fat chance of it yesterday as DH and mum spent nearly 4 hours filling in her tax return, and she owed over 3000.
we were so glad of my stew in the SC.
also need to wash my hair and have a nice bath today - do my legs and the likes. I feel and look grim today, and i am sure that would help me out.
I think i will start with a 2nd cuppa, and wiping down the dining table before getting my stuff out, then do the hair wash/get ready perhaps get the WM on.
ANyway, if you see me on here before doing a lunch time catch up, please kick me without any guilt.
