Pips_Mum

I do Avon now!! LOL!!
Have felt so poorly over last few months havent bothered with make up so havent spent my commision on it like I normally would!! I only do work people and friends and family so never really make that much, got a delivery on Thursday if any of you fancy helping me unpack it and bag it and deliver it!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Thanks for the Mamas and Papas tip Mummy2mygirls.
We need to do loads of home improvements too mainly getting rid of the damp that is making the bathroom plaster fall off :eek:

I am freezing too as our stupid prepayment meter has run out of credit and I havent got any cash until a cheque clears on Thursday Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

How have you got 90 smilies rags? I saw your birthday cake one on sealed pot challenge and was very jealous!

Pips_Mum

Oh and welcome Smarties:hello:

Sorry was too busy ranting!!:mad:

mummy2mygirls

Avon ripped me of when i left! sent in £70 of returns and they said they only received half of them! then everytime i sent a photocopy (even recorded post so i knew it got there!) they said they hadnt received it!! in the end i know not very mse but i just paid for all of it so lost lots of money!! Was so fed up with it all by then....

I dont have the birthday cake either!! not fair!

Well dd1 is still off school, she has the bad belly but fine in all other ways but cant really send her in....but she wants to be at school so is feeling ok. But she wont be happy later when she realises she cant go to rainbows tonight, and they have there xmas carrols, and the last one she can go to before xmas!!! ohwell ill deal with that later..........
Got to sort out a present for the girls from santa who will be coming round the village on sunday!! today is the deadline and once again i still havent given ours in.....Also going to try and write some christmas cards...

speak to you all later im sure....

good morning everyone!!!!

the extra smilies are on the more button at the end of the smilies, just click maximise on the pop up and you will have all 90!!!!!!!!!!!

count me in for unpacking avon stuff pipsmum, that will take me back...................

mummy2mygirls, is your dd a little constipated?? just asking as there was a time when ds1 complained of a bad belly then would be running round like a nutter and he was a little bunged up, going to the loo everyday but only passing small amounts. does eating seem to make the bad belly come back or worse??

find out today when my new sofa's will be delivered!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D i know its more debt but its 0% interest so better than getting it on a cc and we really needed a new sofa.

ok, you twisted my arm, we didnt need a new sofa, it was a moment of weakness. they all looked so pretty in the shop!!!!!:rotfl:

Hello Ladies

I am happier today and much less ranty!!

Avon are not the best to work for, I often end up paying more than I have received from customers but that is awful what they did to you mummy. I get quite fed up with it, have made this my last order for a bit for obvious reasons!! I will see how I feel about them when Pip and I are in a little bit of a routine.

I am excited about your new sofa too rags (how sad am I!!) I love having a new sofa, it makes your whole room look different and new too! I am sure you Reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaalllllyyyy did need a new one, lol!!!

Hoping for a happier day today as I was quite money miserable yesterday, perhaps you could tell . A friend who owed me some money is finally going to cough some of it up today so I can top up my gas meter and not be cold, yay!! Might also go and get the breadmaker and give that a bash.
Any good/easy recipes?

mummy2mygirls

she has the opposite problem!! poor girl. but seems ok this morning but schools say they cant come in for 48hrs after have dodge belly!!!
We have a sofa on the 0% for 3yrs but it finishes soon....we spent far to much on it really but im so glad we did, got a leather one which is so easy to clean when mucky fingers get all over it... we also got 5 yr cover on it and now i think we might be able to claim on it soon, it has a few scratches on the side and the part that keeps it together is broken, so you never know we might even get a new one!! not that the broken bits would bother us or even notice if we didnt have this cover and i think dh broke the linked bits!!

I have been playing trains all morning with the girls, how comes i always build a track spending ages on it joining then dd2 just breaks it up......ohwell.

also think my horrid morning sickness is back.....sure i shouldnt be getting it at 25 weeks!!:eek:

I didnt realise if i made the screen with the smilies on i got more on the otherside!!opps.....

anyway back to the trains......

mummy2mygirls

pip glad you are feeling better today! also that you can top up the gas meter, far to cold to not have heating.....
xx
