    Doomcow,
    I did Kleeneze and I found it back breaking work for very little return.

    Not sure about Avon but I know Buffy does it so she maybe she can help more...


    Re. My Grandmother-what the article doesn't say is that she grows her own fruit and veg, cooks from scratch ALWAYS makes preserves and jams and cakes etc and sells them for a bit of income.

    She reuses EVERYTHING and recycles as well, nothing goes to waste. In fact, people used to make fun of her...

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Doomcow,
    I did Virgin Vie @ Home parties for 9 years and loved it while I did it.

    If you want info, ask away.

    ummmmm,
    if you could find a room amidst the rubble, she probably would...

    When I said she recycles, I meant she has never thrown ANYTHING away. Ever. She is also very good at knitting...

    what is virgin vie?

    and no lodgers - no chance. me an (soon-to-be) mrs doomcow live together :)

    i suggested stocks/shares but she aint interested - probably get a better retun for her / our money than buyign catalogues and distributing them and collecting them and getting orders and delivering orders (rinse repeat)

    My Mum knits, she tried to teach me once but I have the patience of a Rottweiler with an incompetent vet repeatedly trying to stick an oversized thermometer up it's anus.

    Well, I've got a stinking horrible cold and need to get rid of it before next Saturday :eek:

    Any ideas :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
