Why not a cmbination of all help offered?
Sue, I think re the financial concerns it would be best if you could cope if we sent you the stuff to ebay...that way there is no risk of any infiltration of anyone's accts0 -
A misused ebay acct isn't a major problem; it's giving out my paypal acct I'd be wary of doing, wageslave as - I think - it = free money. ie like access to your bank account?
Not sure, as I'm not v technical and have never given anyone else access to my paypal account!
But I'd be wary of you doing that - even to me or sjay.
It just seems wrong.
Does that make me very mean and untrustworthy?
Dunno, maybe just very mse?
And no, I don't have any better ideas...
No, its sensible.
I can still keep control of my paypal account. Think about it
Are all you country girls so distrustful?
In many ways, this has been an education to me.Retail is the only therapy that works0 -

LIR is entirely right, we need to get practical.
We need to know how many are in and what we can expect cash wise.
We have plenty of time and we need a grand.
Not a insurmountable amount of money between us.
SJay get out your envelope.
We volunteered you in charge:pRetail is the only therapy that works0 -
I am my harshest critic and yes, I do always compare myself now to how I used to be.
It can also be handy though when there are people using the old single parent, never worked thing....I can hold my head up high and say I was a success..once..to tell me to eff off
I hate failure, I am a bit of a taskmaster and demand perfection in all that I do...I can't help it, it's the way I am and it does do more harm than good sometimes, I admit I can get a bit OCD about it
At times I think my brother and sister just can't be my siblings as they don't have the same ambition gene, they are perfectly happy to sit in dead end jobs not going anywhere and run a mile from any kind of promotion they are offered, whereas I have always grabbed the progression and promotion in both hands.
...forget all the imposed beliefs, stereotypes, fears - get out there and recognise what you've done, especially given your resources, and be flimmin proud of it. Also (and again, as with the rest of my useless tree-hugging post:D - this is just my opinion) if you get the opportunity, share your experience / knowledge/ love & intelligence - which you have in abundance- with others, if possible :AWe cannot change anything unless we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses. Carl Jung

I don't care how it is done
But her kids will be grown up before you lot make a decision.
I like things decided.
Also and in case anyone hasn't noticed, I am a bit of a take charge kind of person.Retail is the only therapy that works0
