    Oh I don't have any of your eBay names ..please can you pm th this way?

    Moonbabe I hope everything turns out ok Hun, I know what you mean, I have a dread of tests and docs and stuff :(

    daisy, I like the dress..

    Miss my student card too but my sis let's me use hers if I ever want anything in advance or I'm with her :D
  • Moonbabe, I'm sure it'll be fine.

    Holly and tsabo, could you pm me you ebay names please?

    Daisy, I was also looking forward to your ebay stuff.

    Queen (and anyone one else parcel wrapping), you can get free bubble wrap in the fruit and veg department at Tesco and Asda. They have it protecting stuff like grapes and apples and often if you ask the member of staff restocking they'll go and get more out the back.

    Aw, I'm sorry to dissapoint :o I just cant get to the post office a lot right now as it involves a lot of walking and carrying (I don't drive) and with ebay I can't really take things at my own pace if an items sells, especially as you get no real control over when people pay.
  • OK. I'll let you off :)

    Why not offer the things you would have ebay'd on your blog instead daisy? I'm sure that would be fine, and whilst there's not such a wide audience, you could have more say over what and when..and I think that those ppl would be more understanding..just a thought as everyone was really nice when I offered my jewellery up on mine..

    Moonbabe, thoughts are with you x, on the positive side at least they found it and can now start the treatment. I went through this with my best friend 2 years ago, she went in for the treatment and now has very regular smears, oh and she had baby number 2 last year. And is fighting fit now

    Daisybella, I like the dress, agree that you would need to try it on though, think I may need to go and look in our Newlook. I really like their !!!!!cat collection not sure finances will stand it though, meant to be on economy drive due to flipping job evaluation grrrr.

    My main problem is accessories I always feel silly wearing bracelets or necklaces, its a miracle if I wear a watch! I seem to stick to my Wedding, engagement and |eternity ring and my Nans wedding ring. Diamante stud earrings and a necklace that hubby got me :o
    .

    Think I need help

  • Thank you for your kind words. Hopefully everything will be fine, hoping that I get a date through quite quickly, know waiting around will only give me more time to worry.

    Holly and Tsabo can you PM me your ebay names?

    choccy. I used to feel exactly the same about accessories. I thought (probably wrongly) that if I wore a pretty necklace everyone would wonder why I was all dressed up with no place to go!
    For me the jewellery was the hardest part actually, but I found once I was wearing more feminine clothes, it just fell into place and seemed obvious to wear a nice bracelet or pretty brooch. I've still not worked out how I feel about rings though, I keep eying them up in the shops but never really know if it's me or not.

    What do you think is holding you back from jewellery? Don't you like how it looks, what other people might think, lack of pieces to try?
