  • Business things wise, would people prefer pretty papers, or more plain colours with decorations?

    Edit: Thank you all for your help. I wouldn't be doing this without you all!

    Mummy and paige-yep-£600....arrrghhh!!!!!

    Saucy- pretty would be nice to cheer up the boring adding up etc :-) Except...I'm actually scared of butterflies so theyre out! (butterflies/moths/birds..anything flappy!)
  • I'm really scared of butterflies too...Last Summer me and OH were eating pizza with wine in his garden, and one landed on my cheek. Him and his parents thought it was wonderful, I got up and ran round in circles. I was petrified, and refused to go outside again, lol. They are so hairy...I hate moths, too, and spiders.
    I'm okay with birds, but I had a parrot for a long time, so that's probably why!

    I'm designing it now :)

    Afternoon,
    We had quite a bit of snow here this mornnig but it's all gone now and the sun is out.
    My birthday is 13/4 so I'm another Aries.

    Where I want ot be next year: I want my house finished and I would like to work less and earn more!!!

    I quite fancy making nappy cakes, I know others on here do it, I hope you don't mind. Any tips would be great. I'm not going to have a website or anything yet, just do it locally for friends etc and see how it goes, more of a hobby first.
    Mum to 2 DSs, dog mum, wife full-time worker.
    Keen to live a healthly lifestyle and save money

    Saucy - Don't forget me will you? lol x

    Well OH has gone to the party we had an arguement and he got in a huff packed the kids in the car and off he went. I just couldn't do it, a few friendly comments of facebook is a whole world away from a face to face meeting. Will see what oh says when he gets back and go from there maybe I could one day meet with just them but I think If I am honest with myself things are still too raw.

    Anyway, enough dribbling lol. Does anyone sell on ebid? have you had many sales?

    Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

    afternoon all, hows everyone feeling today? i'm in a positive, i can and will do anything kind of mood added another £33 to my total - dont know if its jsut me going off my head but do you think the saying money goes to money has any truth as it seems there is opportunity everywhere now or was i just too thick to notice before!

    my ideal in 12 months:
    not be working where i am
    have a summerhouse in the garden for my craft/baking
    have cleared the debt
    is it too much to ask? i only want the three things but now i've started on this who knows where i or any of us will be in 12months! but we'll be a lot richer for it and i dont just mean moneywise

    oooh im very happy today!!

    i was up very early the other morning and saw a fanstastic one off jacket that was going for an absolute steal, so i put in a cheeky bid and won it for 12.50!!! i couldnt believe it! i was actually going to keep it but probably never wear it (as with most of my clothes!) so thought i would list it back on ebay as i was so sure it had to be worth more.
    started the listing at 25.00 at it hads bids already of 30.00!! auction doesnt finish till tomorrow but it has loads of watchers!!! wonder how much ill get? if i get about 35.00 that will pay my ebay fees for this month!!! woo hoo!! x
