Hi everyone,
Hope kids are feeling better soon.
I've got two business appointments made, so that just leaves checking out the competition and their prices, which i'll stick in the diary for Friday afternoon.
Realised, though, that in focusing on the new business venture, I haven't made any challenge cash this week, and I need to.
So will add - list 10 things on ebay - do two mystery shops - empty Lightspeed folder and do two free cashback deals, by Sunday night.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -
*flops onto the bed and puts her feet up*
Gosh what a day!!
Firstly HI everyone!! Have really missed everyone today!
Sorry to hear about all the sick little kiddies..ewwwwwww must say I dont miss that part at all! Hope they feel better soon and hope all the tired mummies can catch their breath for a bit.
Saucy - are you feeling better? If you ever wanna chat let me know, am usually about somewhere!
What a week it has been for me.....Have done over 300 miles since monday and did nearly 200 today alone. Am now sat, feet up on the bed in the hotel. Started in Milton Keynes then back up to Yorkshire, was there long enough to wash and dry a load of clothes before plans changed again and now find myself in Nottingham! Really rubbish drive down, stuck in traffic by Sheff but that is pretty normal lol
Have 3 appointments tomorrow starting at 930am. So keeping fingers crossed that all of this is going to be worth it!
Have had another nibble on a possible bit of work for my own business, not sure tho if I wanna go down that route with this one, but beggers cant be choosers I guess.
Been thinking about the suggestion of a blog...still not sure how I would or could make decent money off of it or for that matter what the heck would I write about, even if I obviously love to write.
I really need some suggestions for filling this massive gap in earnings at the moment while I am still frantically looking for work everywhere! Not afraid of hard work etc. but dont want to waste my time either. I just realised how bad that must sound lol
Anyway, I am feeling a bit lonely, a bit lost, a million thoughts running through my head at the moment from this week so far. Really wish sometimes that someone was closer could really do with a laugh and a giggle and old fashioned natter I suppose......
Ok, even I am starting to annoy myself with my rambling lol
I am somebody. I am me. I like being me. And I need nobody to make me somebody! Louis L'Amour0 -

Thanks Nixi for the very kind offer
but I live in Scarborough, don't think anyone on here lives near me? He did it again as we went up to brush teeth and it's all over the stairs, I have to now wait til the two little ones have gone to sleep before I clean them as if they hear me they'll start shouting!
(I realise this is COMPLETE dribble lol!)
Inbetween writing this I had to run upstairs again as the two year-old's sleeve apparently needed pulling down before she could go to sleep! Sorry to witter on, my OH's been doing late shifts these two weeks and it's hard work, I have to pretty much do everything as he doesn't go to sleep til about four in the morning then doesn't get up til about one, then back to work...so I'm a bit fed up
Frustrated too as I found something in a charity shop that I wanted to do up and maybe post a pic on here when finished to see what you lot thought. Oh well, back to the vomit!
Hun, my thoughts are with you....I've been there. I hop eyou have managed to clean up and the kids are asleep so you can stop and have a few minutes you time...maybe even post your pic!
No probs re the offer....wish I was a bit cloesr but I am in Warwickshire, so def. not handy for a quick coffee and use of washing machine!!Life is a work in progress0 -

well done everyone on all the little things you have done today to move it the right direction , it maynot be intant cash but it will be cash one day .
anyway 45 flowers done today - worked out it takes me about 5 minutes to amke each one . I've ordered some little plastic bags from ebay so that i can package them , just have to design a little logo to go on the piece of card i am going to attach to the top -
I am going to photograph this first lot and list them on ebay , then give them away at a charity event i am going to next weekend - well ask people to make a donation for them . hopefully if they go down well enough the shop owner I know might be interested in stocking them so i need them to look proffesionally packaged . any ideas ?I am journeying to a debt-free life.
Our estimated debt-free date is January 2040. I'm on a mission to bring that date closer!
16/02/23 debts - £9556.38
emergency fund - £00.00

You're all so busy and productive. Today was taken up by ferrying the little one to his therapy and tomorrow we go to our support group, so Friday is D-day for starting my Ebay listing. I have manage to download the recent version of Turbolister and I've swotted up on my HTML so I can list with multiple pictures, so at least I have done something towards it.0
