From Trash to Cash: the £100 to 10K Dribble thread, Part Deux

I hate text speak. I write my texts in full...and ignore anyone who texts me in text speak unless its a long message that wouldn't have fit otherwise. It's so frustrating...I learnt to spell for a reason!

I'm gonna head off too, OH's friend has gone to bed so he looks confused and bored. Maybe I'll get to sleep at a decent time today!

Night everyone x

Halp! I can hear buzzing somewhere in the flat...I reckon a queen wasp or something has woken up.

If I'm not here in the morning, you'll know I've been attacked by a killer insect...yikes. I don't often miss having a man around, but could do with one right now to send off in search of it!

Night all xxx

Yikes, Glis, are you still alive??
Have decided am going to start the Grocery Challenge on the Old Style board next month, this month I will be mostly trying to save the money we've already got as we are kind of in limbo waiting to see if we'll get the loan we need. If we get it I can have my original £100 back to start again (might have to double this for initial clay purchase). I'm actually itching to go out and find stuff to Ebay, might try to de-clutter and clean this week as OH thinks we should wait for the week before payday before putting on the last of the Ebay pile. In the middle of Em's Sulkies (was so tired yesterday, didn't trust myself to finish them lol) and then babymoo's So much to do! Hope you're all well today xx

Morning,

So wish I was still in bed!

Amber - indeed it is, there is no logic to what is in the boxes, there are some really random ones.

Woke up to an email saying I sold another book for £5 this morning, so starting to make my money back. Was the original service manual for the mini and a pilates guide this time, will have to wait in for delivery, then dash off to the PO.

Oh, and shop and scan invited me to join food on the go yesterday, so got to dig my mobile out as it is all done by text apparently.

Glis - I had one last week, it was HUGE so I put a bowl over it and left it for 5 days, then I hoovered it up, I am such a girl!

Paula - it will take 3 days min to sell, then 5 days to get from Paypal to bank account, so really you want to do it at least 2 weeks before payday, so if you do need the money, it will be there in time! x

Keep forgetting to PM you, so will say it now, please can my sulkie be full sized, shoulder length blonde hair (really any colour would do, she changes it on a monthly basis, but we will stick with natural!) Black top and jeans, she is verging on goth!, umm phrase, pass, will work on it, if not, something to do with cussing mothers will work, take you time, whenever you have the supplies in an give me a shout when I need to cough up! oh, name is Lesley xx thankyou!

Morning people!
Argh I have caught the wee mans cold, so I feel icky. That and my face looks like a pizza due to a reaction to Avon foundation and I've got work tonight - brilliant!

Off to return an overdue library book and get an old phone unlocked at the market cos the wee man drooled all over the OH's (mwahahahahahaha) Will have a wee nosey round the carboot while I'm there me thinks.

Anyway I'm off to get the baby dressed (OMG I'm all ready dressed and not in my [STRIKE]chavvy[/STRIKE]classy pregnancy velour trackie bottoms!!) and then I'm off out :j

Morning all-Glis....are you still with us????!!!! or did the giant buzzy thing get you ;-)
hope you feel better later Nikki :-)
Not much planned for today..its raining :-( Will try to write a new blog entry i think. Have had another look at the homepage but still cant work out how to change things, trouble is all the photos have links attached and I've not got a clue how to make new ones (even if I could work out how to change the photos in the first place!)
Going to scrapbooking club at my ex work place tonight-first time ive been to anything that social since I got signed of with the depression/anxiety so am a bit nervous :-/

No I meant for other peoples' payday apparently it's a good idea to have auctions finish the Sunday after the friday most people get paid, as you're likely to make more! we've done it before, but thanks for thinking of me anyway, and your Sulkie sounds fab, will have a think about the phrase! Hurray hurray got to take DD2 to doc's now, her bottom lip keeps going a bit blue, will let you know what they say later (don't think it's anything serious, she's getting over her cold now too) xx

MummyandPaige

oops, sorry, just so used to being broke, it is an alien concept to me that people actually have money! Good idea though. Hope DD is ok x
