Freecycler just collected an epliator I no longer used due to giving me ingrowing hairs that have taken 18mths to clear up!
Ouch, personally I think that epilators are just instruments of torture, you're better off without ( says LilySue who has long trousers on covering up her unepilated legs!)
Still waiting for John Lewis, and getting frustrated with trying to list my first item on ebay, it keeps coming up with I haven't filled in the insurance option, I select my option to fix it, then it doesn't seem to recognise it :mad:.......why is it easier to spend money than make it???0 -

Was hoping for the kitchen today....while DD1 did her homework last night I cleaned the fridge, wiped all the cupboards, WM & DW and wiped all the small appliances too! Nevermind at least I'll have an easier day one day this week. The bedroom needs some attention anyway.
Will make lunch and fly before I am distracted by the thread. So here's the list for the day.

Morning all - livid as just lost my post that I'd typed!
Done sweet FA again- no change there then, hope Piggers doesn't do end of term reports on us cos mine will say 'must try harder'!!!!
Have as always:
S/S kitchen i including blooming glass table - bane of my life!
Bleached discloth - have to do it every day
Thrown bleach down both loos
Aired and made bed
Watched birds eating from bird feeder - better than watching the news on a morning
Showered and gone to work
Can't be ar£ed with work - had one boring man in for over 3/4 hour, looking for houses even though his isn't on the market. Droned on and on about what he's done to his - sounds that fab I don't understand why he's going to be selling!!!! Sick to death of being 'chirpy, nice, interested and smiley voice on when I just want to tell them all to get lost!!!! Told work colleague yesterday that I'm sick of being nice to people you really don't want to be nice to - though I did tell a vendor he was being unreasonable to his purchaser - he didn't like it overly much - but hey ho - speak to someone who gives a f£$k what you think!!!! Sorry rant over! x

Ironing all done - day time tv is such a time waster - realise why I don't iron/watch in the day time now.
Washing on the line and the neighbours are airing their dirty laundry out there again.
Quick hoover around and then lunch, just need to check what the DoDo is doing first.
I've always wanted an epi - thingy, are they more painful than waxing?The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
I'm so unmotivated today... that would be the technical term for CBA!

It's sports day, which means me rushing round like a lunatic trying to find the camcorder... which is never, never, never just ready to go. Consequently, I have to find tape etc etc, and then end up late for my DD2's race...which for some reason is ALWAYS the first race run!!!! :mad: so once again, her sports day isn't on vid.
Right, I'm going to go and do something before I lose the rest of the day.

In my opinion, yes! I'm guessing that the epilators are okay if you have fine hair, anything tougher and it becomes a battle.
Minor celebration:j, my ebay item listed...so that's three quarters of an hours work for something that will fetch probably 99p.............Let's look at it as a form of de-cluttering
