    My latest craft order arrived today - I think i need to start making something out of it and not just cooing over it.

    My boots order is still processing and I have developed bootsitis where by I keep checking my order history every 2 minutes
    But that said last time i ordered on Boots it arrived two days earlier than they expected and I got a dispatched email the day after it arrived so fingers crossed!!
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    Hello All! Well my cheerful day continued until I met up with Mr Jamtart this evening and he took me down with him :( Boo. Why are men so miserable sometimes ? *sigh* When I ask what is wrong he sighs, says "I'm fine" and then pouts and sulks... (well not pouts but looks unhappy)..I just don't get it? *sigh again*

    Got home to a bag full of goodies from Qype including an ipod shuffle (well done for gettin yours mum2one) which I will be a-flogging on eBay to earn some cash for other presents! Yay!

    Sugarspun - glad all is well with the baba :)

    Sylph - No problems at all xx

    Thanks mum2one ...he'll probably just go "oh I was tired" when I've been worrying sick for a week about whats up with him. :rotfl: I should know him better by now as he really can not cope with anything major being changed in his life and house, engagement and new job all in 2 weeks has probably knocked him right off course!:rotfl: Silly boy!

    What are you going to do with your shuffle? x

    Hmm...you had to get so many points.... 30 reviews = set of goodies, 40 reviews=set of goodies, 60 reviews = set of goodies that sort of thing. When you log in to Qype does it say something like "Welcome Qype insider" or "Welcome Qype Ninja"? If you signed up within the time and have the right number of points you should get the goodies too
