    *collapses in heap*

    Who do I need to speak to about getting days extended to 30 hours. I just cannot do it in 24, it's official.
    Don't know who you need to speak to, but when you find out, save me a place in the queue... I got up at 6.30, went for a run at 7ish, had a shower, ate breakfast and was at my desk and on the phone to clients at 8.30... went to have my nails done at 10, collected my dry cleaning and was back at my desk by 11.30. grabbed lunch and ate it while working... finished interviewing at 8ish... am still working now... and will probably be another hour or so

    flying... well, the laundry is in neat piles on the floor, and most of the washing up is in the DW or the sink...
    can't see any chance of improvement till next week at the earliest, and I really could do with spending less time in this chair!

    ETA... have to shop tomorrow, or there will be no loo paper!

    Thanks guys :) The more I think about it, the less I think I can face Flying around my bedroom. I think it will be more of a shuffle into the sack and splat face down!

    Evening all :)
    Well I was rubbish yesterday - had day off and got next to nothing done :( Having said that I was also full up with cold and just wanted to cwtch up on settee.
    Will catch up over weekend - got lots on over the next couple of evenings :)
    Hope no-one minds but I'm after a bit of feedback also please?
    I have a choice of two party plan businesses to continue with and I don't know what to pick?
    The first is Body Shop - easy to run, well known and lots of incentives :)
    The second is really where my heart is - Neals Yard Remedies - gorgeous products, great ethics and products are all completely chemical free :) I use the products and absolutely love them :)

    Body Shop is cheap to run and earnings are easy to achieve :)
    Neals Yard is true to my heart and where my passion really is :)

    Any advice please anyone?

    Many thanx :)
    Jenny xx

    Evening all, I am doing my lists, but this thread's too fast for me, anyway as I am coming to my 1500th post I wanted to post somewhere nice, as the conversation I am currently having is about a not very nice man and I didn't want to waste a milestone on him. See you all later!

    macpep1 I always make Twinks with marg...what went wrong?...if you dont mind me asking ?

  • Wouldn't send my money anywhere near the Body Shop. Not nowdays, just another business since it went over to L'Oreal, so no reason for paying their prices. But I'd trust the Neal's Yard stuff.

    Anyway, back to the quantum physics grindstone - only 600 words to do by noon today!

    Gosh, my place looks like a lab after someone tried washing the magnesium in the wardrobe. It's a state!

    Oh well, according to DD, with my new specs, a pen behind each ear, a scientific calculator, books, papers, squared paper, a slightly deranged expression from the copious amounts of coffee I have been necking and two laptops in use at once, amidst this chaos, I look like a mad scientist as well.

    Wish I looked as cool as Greenbee sounds.
