    Thanks Jo - that's a lovely one. Great to think of all the people who are going to benefit from it - both dribblers and recipients. Looking forward to this one.

    Good evening dribblers

    Just need to head back and catch up, had a quick skim so hugs all round (NLID kids have that magic that brings everything back into perspective) and three cheers for everyone's mini moves / business ideas / money made (well done Cagne!)

    I'm not usually home on Friday evenings but quite enjoying the peace and quiet. Half considering going for a long hot soak with my book actually, but might pop back here later on.

    Best news possible at the hospital this afternoon, even though they found a second lump, the doc told us immediately that they are harmless cysts and although DS should keep an eye on them, they can be left well alone with no health effects. :D

    I had just found it lol - Thanks Jo

    Today I made many mini-moves towards the end goal

    Ill start at the beginning of the 24 hours - from 0:00-02:00 I was working on the admin system for the affiliate system

    I then went to bed around 3am, as DS wanted feeding and got up and spent an hour on eSeller Tools improvements.

    I also took a step today in deciding I need to sort everything out on my main business website as it is appalling, I may decide to rebrand as it also gives me something to market.....

    Yay Toots had a feeling they may tell you today as I have seen that happen so many times where I used to work but depends who is doing it and their grade so didn't want to get your hopes up.
    You must both be so relieved and great for him to have a positive experience out of being so mature and proactive.
    hugs for having to go through it though. and enjoy your peace and quiet and bath if you have it.

    OK Saturdays mini move for may.
    take one relationship in your life. it doesn't have to be the closest or the most difficult. any relationship you want. partner, parent, child, sibling, friend, work colleague. etc.
    Do one small thing to improve the relationship or to make that person happier. it needs to be something you wouldn't normally do or at least would rarely do. It doesn't need to be a grand gesture. just something small that will still make a difference even if it only makes a difference for 60 seconds. and if you can do it without spending money all the better.

    I really like that one Jo, but then I try really hard to do that every single day, as in I really do make a conscious effort to so called select at least one person and try and make them feel special if even for a few seconds. Another thing I try hard to do is to make a total stranger smile......can be rather a challenge these days as I dont tend to venture out much....but still manage it.
