    I do hope you 'stepped away from the computer'!

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    I accidentally locked myself out of my account! :o I couldn't get it reset last night, so I just went to bed, but that's not to say that I didn't get up bright and early to go to to two of my local stores before work. I'm still calculating the damage (it's all for presents, honest - well, OK, apart from £2 for a little compact mirror.) I will report back later when I've figured it all out.

    Posted 3 of my Ebay parcels today. Will post 1 more tomorrow and am awaiting payment for final one. Still have lost more to list, but have been spoilt into not wanting to pay fees due to proliferation of free listing weekends. I don't mind paying if they will sell, but given that you can't know in advance, I'm debating what to put on.

    Was at work again today. Am in tomorrow, then off Fri & Sat. Friday is CV day. Tomorrow is 'find places to put all the stuff you bought at the Boots sale' day! :o :rotfl:
