    i've had someone email about an item i was selling, end result is that they have bought that one and the nine other ones i had :) quite happy bout that tonight
  • Evening everyone

    Feeling a bit off tonight, so just a quick hi and goodnight from me.

    Hugs to all those in need, keep your chins up and have faith that the fates will send some good your way.

    2cats ~ I got back to work today to find two fantastically fabulous parcels waiting for me and I'm so totally delighted I can't begin to tell you! My boats are even more glorious in the flesh and I've spent a lot of time curled up this evening figuring out exactly where they'll go on my wall. My pendant came straight out of the bag and around my neck! I've had 4 compliments already today, so I've made sure they can all find their way to your Folksy shop! You're brilliant, and I feel privileged!

    Night night, sleep tight all x

    I love Oliver James, he has a column in the Family bit of the saturday Guardian too and he really makes sense. And I love parcels! I hope my clay comes today :)
    Have got a poorly snotty baby with a high temperature so won't be able to go to the volunteering course today as I can't take her to the nursery. Shame as DD1 (2) will miss out on but I feel a bit cheeky taking advantage of the child care when I can't get to the course...mind you it's paid for isn't it, maybe I should take her...hmm. Put the MBTs back on Ebay last night in the hope I'll catch someone who's thinking of doing some walking in the better weather! Definitaly going to start Ebaying again once finances are sorted out as it's been a good earner :) also thinking I really should plot out my book (first chapter of which some of you have seen) since it's not going to do anything floating around in my head! Spoke to my friend yesterday and by talking through the story i managed to come up with a solution for a situation I'd been stuck on which was great :)
    Big hugs to all, hope you feel more rested today jo and that your little one's a bit better xx
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    I hope so too, Jo. It went in the post yesterday.
  • Morning all,

    Hope everyones kiddies get better soon, I hate it when they are ill, seems to be the time of year for bugs though so no escaping!

    Picked up a lot of info on websites this morning from you lot, so thanks!

    Munchki - please can you tell me what is included and how much please! Got the feeling I am going to need help but on a tight budget until I shift some bits.

    Got an email yesterday to say that stock will be delivered Friday so got time to reshuffle the house to mke room! busy, busy!

    Todays jobs, file defense for court claim, reshuffle, reshuffle some more and get to grips with the washing up tht seems to never end! Also clean carpet as DD decided that the contents of her potty didn't need to go down the toilet, nice! I know there is something else, but can't remember, oh well, got too much to do as it is!

    AS for parcels, don't know who is worse, me or DD! Even if I know what is in it, I still rip it open and get all excited, its like a mini birthday!

    Morning all,
    I had to scarper without saying night as the husband came down, and started giving me the evils as I had been downstairs and left him on his own. so good night and good morning.

    come on Munchki step on over to the bad side and tell us what you are doing. Or why not just put the linky in your profile. :) mwahahahahaha ***evil laugh***

    Hales - how have you got on with registration, has our Munchki sorted it for you?

    MummyandPaige - ooer you sound like you have a busy day. And I remember my nieces and the potty it was an interestin experience to say the very least.

    General bits -
    If you are a cake maker I found these wrappers for cupcakes called craftycakewrappers the link is here I thought they might be good for making cupcakes look a bit different.

    If you have multiple websites as quite of us seem to have there is another site I found on my web travel odyssey called flavors.me you can link lots of accounts so all of your information is located on one central page; the site offers support for blogger, facebook, wordpress, and you can provide links for other sites. It is a flexible and easy format and allows you to have a website hub so to speak. It is very much free!

    Other than that I have an exam that I have to take today so if you don't see me online it is because I am doing some exam prep and revision other than that have a great day all.
    Inspirational words for today are:

    Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness, concerning all acts of initiative (and creation).

    There is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too, all sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occured.

    A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.
    Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.

    and video inspiration is right here, if you haven't seen it - it will raise a smile and hopefully remind you that the silliest idea can turn into something amazing. :) xxx

    Morning all. Don't want to go to work today, but am giving myself a talking to. I need to make as much money as poss to pay for this wedding and then start tackling the mortgage so one day I can sit around all day and make jewellery.

    Anyway back to the real world! I have sent OH with a couple of ebay parcels so it all adds up I guess.

    Hope the kids are all better soon everyone x
