Getting Fit & Making Money

Since I did so well with my Special K Diet resolution, I decided to try out another! Another New Year's resolution that it, not another diet. :o) I went to the gym on Tuesday night for a show-around ~ I'm going to go back Monday and join. I was SO impressed!!! Let me tell you, there are 4 levels of fitness, so I'll have no excuse! Check it out! There are two pretty intense weights rooms in the basement, a resistance room on the ground floor with ultra-modern pneumatic resistance machines, a boxing training room with Pilates area on the first floor, and finally a massive cardio room on the top floor ~ which is probably where I'll be living. So I'm excited about it! Hopefully I'll start to see the lbs fall off. I'll update this often so keep checking back!

The other resolution was to save money and make money. Well that's going ok... It's not going great but it's going ok. I devised a spreadsheet (I have one for like everything!!) and it details ALL my expenditure separated into categories and sorted by date. Then I have a summary page so I can see at a glance what's what. Incredibly organised, eh?? And as for making money, I've been working on a load of eBay listings so the next cheap listing day they have I can upload them all. However, last night when I was online, I noticed that eBay are doing a special CD and DVD weekend so it'll only cost 5p to list an item instead of 20p which is fab! But I only had like 5 CD's to sell. So I decided to be ruthless and completely slaughter my CD collection 'cos I never listen to CD's now ~ it's all MP3 to me! :o) So I ripped almost my entire CD collection onto the laptop and now I'm selling the originals. I have of course kept a few for sentimental purposes lol. Besides, no guarantee they'll all sell. But it does clear a massive section of my bookcase lol.
