    I thought jeggings were a typo when I read it on another thread :rotfl:

    Bookie....you will get far more customers now you are closed :rolleyes:

    Too true. I got so fed up with people rattling the door that I gave in and opened up. Therefore sorting still not sorted and I will have to go back tomorrow! (must set the alarm clock).

    I am a bit of a control freak but thats because I don't like surprises.....or shocks.....

    I am so like this now and I don't really like it now I realise how much I've changed :( I kind of see each day sadly as a series of business transactions - investigate/sort/do/wrap up/move on and can't handle changes in my routine at all now in any aspect of my life, it's eventually how I ended up coping with Cruella - I knew that if everything was as controlled as possible then I could focus on the unknown each day of what she'd throw at me, but it has ended up taking over every other area of my life as well. I think that's why being told I'm having to move office has unnerved me, it's out of my control and I don't like it :(

    Hi Partick :hello:

    My wholesaler has agreed to take stock back to the value of his invoices so that's 5 boxes packed up. And I put over £200 in the till so the day wasn't completely wasted.

    So much still to do. Letters to write, ironing, packing, meeting in Leicester at 6.30, car insurance to renew and travel insurance, babysitting tomorrow afternoon ..........

    What on earth am I doing sitting here? :D

    Yeah I suppose I have, but I have nothing significant left to sell and am getting a bit annoyed at how slow things are going compared to when I first started.

    Also my work is very slow at paying overtime.... my most recent pay included my April overtime (4-6 hours every Saturday and Sunday so it mounts up)

    Funny isn't it...thats exactly how I am....and any kind of unplanned event knocks me off kilter....so OH staying home last week really set things off....

    Thanks you lot, its good to get things off my chest and into perspective..

    Bookie.....keep going, keep going.......
