    Woo hoo!!!

    2 ebay items have bids on at last! A set of make up I have relisted a few times and some lipsticks too! The make up bag declutter is reducing! Yipee! :j:j:j:j Have listed 13 items this week!

    Thanks for the kick Pigpen as I fell out of the habit of ebaying despite the ever growing pile I put items into! :A

    Well done to Toots for doing the stars when you have all this on and to Soappie too if you are doing them under the alias :A

    Evening peeps....

    Congratulations Kaz and Hugs to Hex.

    I had a great start to my day with lots of work done in the kitchen. Since then my ex bf (still living here) has managed to destroy all of my hard work. He cooked a lovely tea but didnt' wash so much as a teaspoon or wipe a surface. Hence him being an ex...... Drives me insane as I've tried really hard with my flying this week and he does nothing to help. Men eh.....

    Back into the kitchen I go......
