Good morning virtual sellers!
What are your plans for today? Will you be working? Or having a day of fun or rest?
I'll be doing both. Today is a laundry day, which leaves me lots of time between the wash cycle and the dryer to watch something from the DVR or read.
For those of you who will be thrifting this week, here are some spring 2015 trends (according to Glamour magazine) to look for:
shirtdresses
yellow
flats, slides and sneakers

Doing some work. Have pics of five items ready to go, so I'm going to get those listed, at the very least.
Going out to dinner with another couple tonight to one of my favorite restaurants. It's kind of pricy, so we only go there a few times a year when they email us a $25 off $75 coupon. Really looking forward to that.
Thanks for the fashion trend tips. I'm pretty sure the only yellow thing I have listed is a raincoat. LOL.

Today is laundry day here too.
Then I have to put in a good 2-3 hours of studying for a test.
Then I will try and get 10-15 items listed.
Good luck today everyone!
Oh, and who said that ugly "t" word? UGH. Really, I should be working on those today but it's easier to ignore them until the last minute....

Staring at a tote full of shorts that I photographed yesterday. It's warming up this week so maybe the time is right to list them. OR - I could work on my taxes. Neither sounds like much fun. Maybe I'll just go out in the sun & play with the dog for a while. It's supposed to be above freezing today!

Puttering in the yard and dividing my geraniums. They have gotten so big I need to do it now to avoid damaging the roots.
I had my first flowers of spring open yesterday, some lovely paperwhites that I had started in the house. Hopefully I can move them outside soon.
Also doing laundry, looks like Sunday laundry is a common theme today.

Yep another one for laundry - except DH does the laundry in this household. Ever since I washed DS's ipod in the pocket of his shorts a few years ago, apparently I cannot be trusted with this simple task. Oh boo hoo  .
I'm hoping to take a boat load of pictures today so that I can list during the week after I get home from work. And since my taxes are already done (and fed refund received woo hoo!), I just need to organize some of last years paperwork to get it out of my sight, so I'm hoping to get that done today too. |

Oh, and of course, I need to set aside some time to come here too! (Oh man - now I really want that chocolate covered donut in my former post...)

Hey now, don't give us any ideas, now lots of little electronic gadgets will probably end up in the washing machine today! Actually that wouldn't work in my house. DH does his own laundry and I do mine. Except he won't put his away, he throws them in a heap on the bed for me to find when I'm ready to go to sleep.  |

I will be photographing and listing today. I usually list and photograph in batches of 5, because I have a short attention span. I am planning to do 4 sets of 5 items. I know that's not a lot, but I get easily distracted.
Later we'll go out for a small dinner and live music.

Sunday is usually a huge listing day for me but not today. I am slowly running out of inventory.
I am doing laundry and taking some pictures and clearing out alot of hopefuls that I will never sell. An Ebay spring cleaning I guess.
As far as the trends I did sell 3 yellow shirts this week.

Going to try to get at least 10 items copied over to Tradesy and 5-10 new listings up on Ebay. Need to get my sold items packaged and ready to ship tomorrow. PO is only open a few hours now so have to be ready. Have a coat I accepted a BO on that seems to be a NPB so will open that tonight or tomorrow. So frustrating, why go through the trouble to make a BO if you aren't going to pay.

Add me to the laundry list. Have a load going right now. And as soon as I finish typing this, I'm going to take pics. And I even have some yellow in the batch - good to know it will be 'trending'  |

So far today I have done one load of laundry, baked a box mix cake, and ate a corndog for lunch. I have a lot more laundry to do and will be taking pictures as soon as my camera is charged. I have to use my old camera because I cannot find the charger to my brand new camera.  I guress I will be ordering a new one this week. I have so much stuff to list. DBF and I are finally gearing up to move from his parents house. We found an apartment we like in our price range and have all the paperwork ready to be submitted this week. I am worried they won't rent to us because of our lack of rental history though. If they say no we are back to square one I guess. Anyways, I want to move as little Ebay stuff as possible since I will probably take a break for a month as we get settled in. I'd love to have some sales for some extra cash for all the moving expenses and have less inventory to move. I think I will start with the few dresses I have that could be "Eastery" and then go from there. Betty (I think?) once posted on the other place that you have to think of your inventory as money that you can't have until you get it all listed. I've got to think of those piles of stuff as cash. |

I am very jealous Jeremy, that you no longer have to do eBay laundry.

Raining today so I am going to be putting some energy into getting things straight around the house and going through my closets to weed out stuff that can be listed.
I discovered that I have a ton of greeting cards stashed away with nobody to send them too so going to see if there is a market for them on ebay.

Working real life job today and this week I think I want to start tackling taxes. Taxes, taxes, taxes...still haven't started...I am off the last week in march and hopefully will get them done then. This time change is playing havoc on my plans for today. It feels like jet lag. Dh went to the supermarket ...I hate shopping...food shopping that is....Maybe the nursery for some plants later. |

Add me to laundry day. Still funny how the older folk stick to doing laundry on Mondays. We "younger ones" have abandoned that idea.
Spent the day printing labels for 11 sales - Yay!
Still have to pack everything up.
I had to have my taxes done by the end of January for Medicaid, so now all I have to do is try to find $660 to pay IRS.
Will list this evening, since I have no life besides eBay. Have pics ready for clothing and collectibles.

My grandma always did our laundry on Mondays, What was the reasoning behind that again? I missed it.

When I was a kid, laundry was done whenever there was enough for a load. Me now, it's more like when I feel like it |

Taking a coffee break and just saw this post. Went with DH to stay with his mom while his sis & her hubby went to church. MIL has Alzheimers and can't be left alone; she seemed better today and responded to us, unlike last time. Our family takes turns so the caregivers don't burn out. I listed onto my website while sitting there. Came home and did battle with the blackberry vines while pruning the climbing roses. It's beautiful outside, almost 70 degrees. After a cuppa coffee I've gotta get some pix done for eBay... just another day in the life, lol. It's been pretty slow online and it's probably my fault again; I've gotta focus on listing consistently. Coffee's done; hope everyone has a great day... what's left of it. : )

Pictures are taken. Now to fix some dinner and then see if I can log into a client's pc to do some work. I get that out of the way, I can go back and get my inventory #s assigned to my pics. They're in FL so it's already 8:00 their time, so I better go check in.

Pictures! Yay for the extra hour of light at the end of the day, so I can do them late! Yay that I can finally get in the backyard, but it's kinda muddy back there LOL.

I haven't been online much today-- it has been laundry day all day, and I am cleaning out the girls' room, which is proving to be a huge project. I did snap some pics of their old shoes that aren't eBay worthy and got those on one of my local FB groups, and all but one pair is pending pickup.
We were supposed to have softball practice today for both girls, but it is rainy and chilly, so it was cancelled. I haven't even been out of the house today! I thought about going to the 50% off sale at GW, but DH did a donation drop off and said it was packed and picked over.
Anyone else feel like they had a late start? Waking up and immediately losing an hour isn't a good thing for me!

Happiness is receiving a great feedback before even packing up the item. After I wondered what the heck happened and was I going crazy....
