  • Hi Everyone,
    ive noticed that alot of you spending alot of time putting things on ebay so i thought this may help you!
    it has saved me alot of time


    the quickest and easiest way to list lots of items is to use ebay turbo lister, You can do a write up of one item and then use that as a template for your other items without having to reenter all the bits each time, just click edit .
    ideal for bulk or single items



    just thought it might help save time....

    addicted to lush your boy looks like butter wouldn't melt! He is the cutest beautifullest looking angel. Such lovely skin. I know that's a weird thing to say but wouldn't you just kill for skin like that!! You know, my boy is not 4 until december and look at the size of him!!!

    Right I have got to find my list now and then pretend to do some of the things off it :D:D

    I don't think I could move Christmas day.. which is just ridiculous really.. but it would feel so wrong!! Then again if it was a choice between no DH or family christmas there would be no question.. GET RID OF DH!! Less jobs for me on the day. JUST KIDDING!!!

    I COULD NOT clean a rabbit out every single day. That would drive me mad. I find it a pain in the !!!! to clean a hamster out once a week LOL

    Wish I was going to Center parcs!!

    I made a big listing on Ebay yesterday and the site crashed when I pressed Submit ARGH

    Gill, I totally agree. It is because we are all such domestic goddesses that we just simply don't have time to chat y'know.

    Shevs, now you have cleaned your car I have GOT to do mine... So thanks for that :p

    What makes me feel Christmassy is putting on a few special songs. Fairytale of new York, Last Christmas etc. Nothing feels more christmassy then that! Having a mince pie with a hot chocolate and a christmas film is pretty awesome too!!

    I am so sorry you have had a bad day :( I hope you can make it right with your friend and everything turns out ok

    I love sitting by a roaring real open fire surrounded by book shelves and a christmas tree in the corner. Sadly out house is more like "switch the gas fire on and sit by the telly" :rotfl:but one year I had to go away with work and the ideal Christmas scene with fire and tree was in the 'drawing room' of the place we stayed! Brilliant!!

    Wrapping presents and xmas dvds gets me in the mood too!

  • Thanks girls for the compliments about my little boy. Pinkladymel I know what you mean about his skin, its so soft and yummy, I have a thing about kissing his forehead as its so smooth! He looks younger than he is, on holiday they had to double check his age as they wouldn't let him in to the kids club or swimming club as they didn't think he was 3!! Let alone 4!! Anyway back to christmas. Well for me my favourite is putting up the tree and decorations. Am hoping for a nicer tree experience this year as 2 years ago the cat urinated all over the tree (he was a kitten) and climbed it daily and last year the dog ate the bottom half and chewed all the decorations (she was a puppy!) so this year I am hoping for a tree that stays like a tree until christmas. I love getting all my xmas bits out like my stockings with our names on and my reindeer teddy etc. We don't have many ornaments around due to the dogs lethal tail so will be nice to liven the room up. I also love xmas music in the evening whilst wrapping presents. Ooooooh I cant wait, I want christmas NOW! Anyway back to my daily list, havent done anything yet, still in pjs having fake picnics with Harry. Am getting us ready after lunch and cracking on. Quite enjoying our lazy morning! Anyway best go, I have a picnic date with winnie the pooh, a teddy, the dog and Harry. I love children!! xxx

    Oh and congrats Mel, thats FAB news, winning something always cheers your day up! x
