munchki - glad you still want to move and just shout if you need advice or help

well just back from the craft shop - didnt go too overboard only spent £30 and that included a glue gun. the place is so disorganised its unbelievable probably why i only spent £30, am itching to get started but will just grump at the kids when they need fed if i'm in the middle of doing something (i know bad mother!)
have put my name down to be contacted if there are any classes or demonstrations, they do have a get together on a thursday night but she just mentioned knitting - well no thanks, i can knit -have even done an argyll pattern before but it takes too long i'm too impatient, if its not finished within an hour forget it!

have bought cream carnations, red gerberas, cream lillies, pale antique purple roses, fern, feathers, beaded wire, crystals on wire and lots of ribbon. sooooooo excited! will pop back later

i have had such a lazy day!! I have something wrong with my eye.the top of the lid near my eyebrow went all red about 3 days ago. I thought it was dry skin and ignored it even although its slightly sore, today I have wakened up with the eye concerned all swollen and puffy. I look like i have been fighting with Ricky Hatton

that happened to me not so long ago, I was advised to take a quite warm moist towel and hold it to it for awhile a few times a day. I must admit it did help mine, but mine happened after have a nasty cold, so might be different, only a suggestion!

That sounds brill Yukki!! Count me in if you don't mind another jewellery person on your patch!

this blog wont be about me and my jewellery so don't worry about stepping on toes, we're all welcome. It's about showcasing all the great handcrafted items that are out there. And what better place to start than with my mates here on the dribblers thread.

I have no doubt I have missed some posts lol, normally I keep a notebook handy when am home and jot them all down! Did have a look at some info regarding housing from Lilac last night, dont think I can come classed as homeless, but am going to look into at least filling out the housing apps. Had a look at brookstreet and adecco today when I was in dundee as well.

munchki, go for it. Doesn't sound like things could get much worse, and they could get a whole lot better. There were posts earlier with job vacancies, and places to stay and all sorts.

Also, I have a brother sewing machine. I wonder would my lead fit your machine if you borrowed it for a bit? (See, I told you I wasn't going to let go with this LOL)

Hi everyone
Sorry i've not had chance to read everything yet, things have been pretty manic for the last week (long story)...
I wondered if anyone knows whether on eBay you can see everything, in every category that's ending soon? I hope that makes sense? Does anyone know?
Thanks, i'll also catch up with the thread and be back soon - have missed you all! xxx
