    Is anyone else finding this whole money making thing is giving them a real high? When I think about the business I'm trying to plan and the ideas that are whizzing round, I am so excited I could scream!

    It's the only time I ever wished I had someone other than the cats around at home - my poor old mum has to listen to constant streams of ideas and thoughts and plans over the phone and on Googlemail!

    Even if all of this comes to nothing by the end of the year, I will have had the best start to a year in a long time, I'll have a clear loft and at least £500 more than I would have otherwise.

    Here's a little excited jump :j

    also the folksy people = have done a search for cake toppers and button holes - do you think these would sell as i love sitting puddling about have had a search and couldnt find much?(yes another idea!!! Joey - your right you cant turn the money making ideas off and your head is always buzzing)

    Joey my mind won't stop lately I am on a high an it takes me away from real life for a wee while.
