Morning
Just a flying hello after I have caught up, off to post a book that sold on Amazon, visit the nursery and get some pain killers. Then I haveto try and make room for the books that are coming today!
Got the feeling today is going to be a bad day, have to do all this walking and is is bucketing it down outside, alright for the kids, I have a raincover, but me, I will be pushing the buggy which means I won't even have a spare hand to hold a brolly! Just to add insult to injury, I have a toothache and I haven't got anyone to look after the kids so I ca see the dentist, hoping the babies teething gel will work for a bit!
2cats - def saleable!

Yup, will probably be over the w/e Toots. Have a heavy musical w/e with the offspring, so don't know when exactly. And I'll do Jane's at the same time (heck, I hope you all like 'em after all this!). I wasn't planning on selling the boats as I honestly didn't think it was good enough - it was just to try this new technique out. Do you think I should list it???
As long as ytou are happy to sell it then I think you should list it, its really good, and I think it would sell.

Nixinixi – Glad that your DD is better I was meant to respond yesterday but it was one of those evenings where I could barely get a moment to myself.

Have a good day all. I need to go and find our back up hard drive which I have put somewhere safe....not as safe the power adapter though which we haven't found since we move house 18months ago:eek: (OH decided last night that he wanted to buy a new adpater and need the info off it make sure we get the right on....now where did I put it??? And then this afternoon I am having my haircut...woohoo!! (First time since June and it is my treat to myself, can't wait!)

Apparently too late to do a CHAPS payment (which I know is bs, if its done before 2pm it will clear today) so I have to wait till Monday. Brilliant cos I have no food in the house! Was planning on saving what was left of last months wages but thats not possibl atm!! So angry, and there just like 'oops'. Yeah I can run a house and feed a baby on 'oops'
Rant over!0 -
Well done mimms,
That's a great total, wish I had half of that. One day though.
I think I'm going to have to sell my mountain bike as I can't risk riding it incase I fall off and cut myself. So hopefully that will bring in a couple of hundred to get my funds going.
EDIT: Just looked on eBay and the mountain bike I have is going for between 250 and 400 and that's the 2007 model mine is the 2008 with upgrades. So that's what I'll be doing this weekend, listing my mountain bike.:jWould like to: Retire at 54. 19yrs .Clear mortgage by 50. 16yrs.
