I just finished our Valentine's dinner at home and I'm two glasses of wine deep into the night and finding it hard to motivate myself to list, would rather diddle around the internet.

If you had a laptop you'd have battery power and could list. Just sayin'….. Sadly, it would kill power to my router, leaving me with no internet. LOLOLOL!!!

I am such a slug. All I did today Ebay related was to move all the things into the bedroom to get measured.
Maybe tomorrow.....

Hope Step Dad gets home before the storm hits Deb.
I managed to get all my pics edited so dresses are offically done. didn't start on blazers, plan on going to bed at a decent hour tonight so maybe I'll be perkier tomorrow and no so sore from lifting my fat mannies.
It's suppose to start snowing here around 10am. Of course they can't decide how much we are getting. Even the weatherman said all 3 models show different amounts. We went from 17" to 7-10" to 1-2" and now it's 3-4" so we'll see.
Enjoy your steamy book Liz LOL

Ahrn I NEED to know where you got the spanking emoticon.
I'm jealous of the mani/pedi & the valentines dinner. We just exchanged gifts, but don't do anything special these days. I do have See's white chocolate/key lime truffles though :-)

I will try to not spend so much time reading the boards....
I list steadily...more winter stuff for today, then will iron a bunch of vintage linens to take pics of. Tons of stuff from ex-MIL's house and my Mom's house....but my garage is finally looking a ton better.

Trying to do a little listing. It's too cold and windy to go out even though all my fav thrifts are having 50% off today. So, listing it is!

I didn't get much listed yesterday (laundry got reduced, though) but I did have 4 average $ sales. Then SO and I did a quick reconnaissance run at the TS before closing last night. Got a few really cute skirts and plus size tops for a $1 or so, each. We'll be leaving in an hour for today's weekly sale. There's probably 15 or 20 items I've got my eye on, though it will be more of a "hit and run" than a typical shopping day. Like I need more inventory? ha ha But we did miss last week, and the week before I was real picky and conservative. Got to leave SO at home, which was a nice change! The joy was finding 4 NWT items out of 30. I WILL be listing when we get home because I'm down to 100 listings, again. Arrrrrrrrrrgh Progress baby, progress... Ciao, for now. Have a good day everyone!

It is raining today so yard work is out.
I am down to cleaning house or listing.
But first, going to check out the Animated Smileys.

Dh is sleeping before work and my office is attached to our bedroom by our walk in closet. I don't want to wake him up making noise in the office. Or that is the excuse I'm going with to delay getting my butt in there to take more pics LOL

Alrighty, so they say the road to h*ll is paved with good intentions... and right now, I'm ON that road! Since 1:00, I've managed to list ONE freakin' thing because pictures aren't uploading on eBay's SIY form!!! I'm ready to s-c-r-e-am out of frustration. Then, to top things off, our "little" shopping adventure earlier this morning turned into 104 items in just 25-minutes! By the time I had my arms loaded with dresses, SO had a shopping cart FULL of women's tops. And I might add, he did very well on the haul. He says I trained him too good! Now, will somebody put a boot up my backside or kick me in the head (for some sense?)...before I go completely insane?! Well, since I can't list right now, I guess I'll start taking tags off of things... arrrrrrrrrrgh BBL

104 items in just 25-minutes = 4.16 items per minute
They should give out trophies for "power shopping"!

Well, fiddle-farts! I'm throwing in the towel because after 8 long hours, I could only get 5 complete listings done, thanks to eBay's pic upload process being hinky. Grrrrrrrrrrr And tomorrow, who knows what things will be like? Monday, a holiday aaaaaaaand, a potential ice storm for me. UGH.

I have the day off tomorrow and I must make myself list. I have not listed a single item this month. *Hangs head in shame*
I have had 5 sales this month which isn't too bad when you haven't listed for a month and have less than 50 items up. But since my car trunk is full of clothes that I am too ashamed to bring into the house then I better get listing. Embarrassment is a good motivator when your cars looks like a scene from Hoarders, lol.

I am finally listing after all the car shopping efforts this week. That really wiped me out! I just got 2 things up on eBay, and one on a FB selling group, and want to do 3 more to eBay before I go to bed. Of course, that isn't going to happen if I keep on posting to my message boards and FB.

BetsRoff-- I wish my husband would be thrift-trained. Well, he sorta is.. he goes to our closest GW for all the sporting goods for the kids. He has only been to the bins once, and it was because I got a huge sports net (the kind you can hit baseballs into) and I wasn't able to get it to pop back into the case.
He would never shop for clothing inventory, that is for sure. And what a great haul. Murphy's Law that you can't list tonight! The SYI picture uploader had been giving me intermittent issues for a while, but it has stopped.

The SYI picture uploader had been giving me intermittent issues for a while, but it has stopped. My SO was BORN to shop. Period. He doesn't care that it's a TS or grocery store or sporting goods, but I had to make him stop shopping for himself! After he retired, we went head-to-head quite a few times because he insisted on new "sporty" clothes every year...several hundred $$. It was crazy because we didn't go to too many places. Now he's happy to have discovered TS prices with great quality and even gets excited about shopping for eBay. And the prices I sell stuff for. I really do need to work on getting much more efficient so I can "turn & burn" the B&B stuff! Fast forward...I only managed to list 8 items over a 12-hr period due to the SYI pic glitches. UGH! Thanks, eBay. But, I'm so glad we got to shop yesterday because we are getting a nasty ice storm. Now I have to cross fingers and toes that I get my packages picked up on Tues. Meanwhile, I'm trying to make myself sleepy... zzzzzzzzzz

I got NOTHING done and I have about 30 things I need to take pics/list. I did clean my house and take down the artificial Christmas tree.

Yesterday was a wash. I didn't get anything new listed. I did "re-sort" some stuff, get a bin to take to Clothes Mentor and a bag to take to the TS. Now, my eBay room is an even bigger disaster than it was before. I have a handful of items to prep to ship out tomorrow.
I have a bunch of low price relists to get done. Then I might get 10 things listed today.
I am done with book 2 now. I told myself NO 50 until my "chores" are done.

I took yesterday off, want to get my rack of blazers pics done today after Dh gets up. So that is today's goal. Got a foot of snow last night with about an inch of ice under it and it's still snowing. Think I'll wait to list until the weather clears. Wouldn't be able to get to the PO to ship anyways.
