    Afternoon :D

    So everyone is getting snow again!!! By the weather report sounds like im in for it this evening and through the night! So ive phoned head for my lift into work with my friend if it does snow!

    My card kit came today....its soooo cute! I cant wait to start making them, although im still waiting on the glue spots which didnt come with the kit so i ordered them from ebay only 99p....which was the amount of CB i got back from quidco for the cards anyway.

    Also my CD wallet has finally arrived so i will be busy later sorting all my cd's into it for the car.

    I havent started with the cupcakes yet as need to buy all the essentials first.

    On another good note, i think my period may have just turned up! yay, didnt think id ever be happy to see it but i am as this means we can start trying for a baby again when if we want, maybe we might try this month for a valentines big fat positive test. We will see.

    On the money front....well i picked up 2p today! :D hahaha I also sold my old N95 mobile to my friend at work. As shes a good friend i let her have it for £65....there still selling for £90 on ebay! She hasnt got any money atm so shes paying me by the 22nd she said, i didnt want to give it to her until she paid me really incase she breaks it then gives it back to me! lol, but she moaned she wanted it now, and promised me she would pay on time. So i have £65 coming to my £5 a day challenge soon.

    I dont know whats up with BB but we deposited and played through our £5 fair and square so we should be getting our bonus money still.

    Oh and i had a little win yesterday just a t-shirt and a win today with the cream egg comp but not sure what ive won yet it said well done you've won a !!!! so hopefully will find out soon.

    More snow i know, should be fun out on the roads tomorrow. Work have said it would be nice if we all made the effort to get in tomorrow, i can walk, it only takes 30 mins but i don't want to end up on my back side and injure myself. I'm normally good though and always make the effort, its others that don't!

    Well done on the extra money making, you can add that to your sig for the £5 a day challenge, i've not even started that yet, just don't know where to start. I need to get my butt into gear i think.

    The card kit sounds great, you will have so much fun making the cards. Do your local colleges offer any short courses on card making? I know some do in the evenings.

    Well done on the win :T every little counts!

    Well done on selling your phone and the prizes you have won too.

    WE haven't got much snow here yet, is never that much in London.

    The card kit sounds really good. I am sure people will appreciate you have put time into them as well.

    Well the snow did hit here last night but it the roads were pretty clear, they had been gritted well this time! So i drove to work and worried all day as from when i woke up at 7am until 3pm today it was snowing so heavy i was worrying i wouldnt be able to get home! But roads stayed pretty clear and i made it home.:rolleyes:

    I hope it doesnt snow again tonight as i dont know i will get into work, my friend who lives down the road wont go in if it snows again he said. And my dad has booked 2 days off work. And i am not getting the bus as i would have to take 2 and they dont normally run where i live when it snows. Perhaps if it does snow i will just go in late when roads are clearer.

    I didnt list my items on ebay last night as i dont want them ending when the weather is like this, then having to battle to the post office in the snow. Well thats my excuse anyway! :rotfl:

    Hey,

    It was pretty tricky driving to work today the roads were really quite as nobody esle was bothering to go to work and all the schools were shut. So the snow had settled on the roads making it scarey for me to drive on! Luckly by the time i finsihed work the roads were busy with cars and pretty clear again. Phew! Hopefully that will be the last of the snow. Please!

    I won £5 on my scratchie today so withdrew £10 and added it to my £5 extra a day.;)

    Thats about all to update on at the moment, i havent had any surveys since before christmas. Id like some nice PC ones to fill my paypal money up!

    Hi maria,
    Well done on scratchie today! I haven't received any surveys either, don't know what is happening.
    There is no snow in london again, not where I live:). Have had a lazy day, assignment still not finished :(
