So Time Consumng

I spent a good portion of my morning trying to get stuff listed on Ebay for sale. It isn't all that hard but gee it seems like making a listing has sucked up so much of my time this morning. I really thought I would have zipped through but no such luck.
Normally I just resell books I've read on Ebay and those listings take nothing to do. But today I have a few brand new shirts with tags that I won't ever wear so I figured it might be worth it to list them on Ebay. It's these listings that take forever to get done but it will be worth the time if they sell.
Other than that there isn't much new here. It's a drizzly rain today but the grass needs it so I'm not complaining.
We had a great day yesterday. It was nice having the family here and my son in law did a great job replacing the steps on my deck. A win win for me He also said that next spring he'll sand the deck and re-stain it for me. How lucky am I
Hope this Monday is a good one for you

I'm hoping the stuff sells too as I could use a little extra cash

Thanks Judy. Yes my son in law is very helpful and I'm happy that he's in the family. Keeping my fingers crossed that my things sell on Ebay as I could use a little extra cash this month

I wish someone would work on my deck. I really want to get deck wizard but it would cost too much. I might rent a pressure washer..if I bought deck over..which they sell at Home Depot son would do it for me.

My deck is a mess too and it isn't even that old. It needs a good sanding and restaining and it's just too expensive to hire someone to do it.

I never bothered with ebay - selling or buying. I heard too many bad stories about sales getting messed up. I don't want to run to the post office all the time either.

I don't sell enough stuff to make going to the post office a problem. I'm just looking to make a few extra bucks this month but I've never had any problem with anything I've sold or bought on Ebay

@Marilynda1225 Oh, maybe they have changed since I heard about it years ago.

Glad the steps are done. Yes, ebay takes longer than i remember to list things.

Ebay keeps changing their listing forms and although they probably think it's easier I still struggle through all the changes. Once I get the hang of it then it goes pretty quickly

My son in law is very handy when it comes to doing things around the house so I'm grateful that he was able to do my steps and didn't charge me

My day turned out to be a lazy one. I sat in front of the tv and watched a few episodes of Game of Thrones

I had a very lazy day today and basically took the day off and watched a few episodes of Game of Thrones. Now it's time to cook dinner and I feel guilty that i wasted the day
