The Thrifty Gifty Girls 2009 (Organised & Money Neutral for All Occasions) #3

I'm watching QVC I probably won't buy anything but I like looking at all the crafty stuff. Would you say QVC is value for money? It always seems quite expensive to me?

I spilt pepsi on my laptop last night The backspace and enter key are really stiff now. It's very annoying! Just asked on the techie board see if anybody call tell me how to clean it!

I can't decide what to do today. OH has gone out with his mates from footy because it's the end of the season. Might try and get a few more packs of my CAB work done. I've done what she asked us to do but we can work at our own pace now.

OOOOOH cupcakes!

Hayley you can buy a spray aerosol which will clean it but it can be quite expensive, you can also use wet cotton buds to clean inbetween the keys. you are lucky it is just a couple of sticky buttons and not a whole new laptop when I say wet cotton buds I dont mean dripping I mean just moist

I know, I was very lucky, I grabbed the laptop up as soon as I knocked it over. I'll go have a nosy round the internet see if I can find anything I can buy. I'll try the cotton buds too, thank you

Chocky you are soooo naughty keep buying things :rotfl: Are you feeling any bvetter now? xx



Well I have been crafty this morning and made a card, I am itching to make more but I really want to make a nice red card although have no red papers ... might have to go to boundary mill on tuesday ... see if I can persuade OH to buy me some
I went to work last night and spent 4 hours dancing around behind the bar, my leg is absolute agony and I even took painkillers before going to work yet they did nothing, I need to go back and see the doctors I think can't go on like this!

No still feel like poop I am suppossed to be taking 3x 300mg today .... theres no chance of that after taking 2 x 300mg yesterday i thought H was going to have to get me to hospital , i felt sooo bad. They want me to build up so take 1 x 300mg 1st day. Then on 2nd day take 1 x 300mg twice. So far today i havent took any of that tablet. I will just take the 1 tonight.

Have you not got any you can print off ? must be some in there somewhere.

Being someone who has lived with severe leg pain and now back pain.... Get yourself back to your drs.. Tell them how much this pain is effecting your life and you need to get it sorted now !! Your gp can refer you for physio, so ask for that. Also make sure you get stronger painkillers. I take 1 which is great and i honestly couldnt survive without it. Some people just dont get on with it but for me its been a lifesaver, will PM you if you want to know anymore xx

I too think they can be expensive so don't really ever buy anything (though I do like the Patchwork Pals set that Choccy has ordered). I think lots of the sets are too big and I'd get bored making lots of the same type of thing. I like to buy in small amounts so I can have variety My neighbour has recently got into card making and she is a devout QVC shopper. She must have spent hundreds on stuff and she'll never use all of it.

I agree...they are very cute! not ordered anything...yet!

Thank you for the warm welcome.
My sweet making was fun, I made coffee cremes, peppermint fondants and cinder toffee. The first time for cinder toffee, I got very excited when the mixture foamed up and it tastes great. Going to take to friends now so I dont eat them all!
