    Busy, yes! But in a good way...i think!

    The lovely flylady suggests 45 minutes work, then 15 minutes relaxing all the way through the day, for me that is a few pages of a book or messing about with DDs! It works, stos me from getting bogged down and not bothering :D However, weekends, I do...ummmm.....sod all :D Anywho, eBay seems to be on fire today, have had 3 sales in the space of 10 minutes, typical, was just off out to the PO when I saw them, still at least they can go today. Off to pack x

    YAY Mabel! :D

    Yay, well done Mabel! Hehe, what would we do without nagging dribblers huh? Talking of which, I should be posting your bits (!) at the weekend, sorry it's taken so darned long!!

    Jo, glad to hear DS is a bit brighter, another few penicillin tabs and he'll no doubt feel much better as the swelling goes down and he doesn't feel so uncomfortable talking. Poor lamb.

    Lol M&P the theory is that once you're on top of it all, it shouldn't matter if you have a weekend off, it'll still be easier to catch up. Although to be honest, I'm finding that I'm doing things right away rather than leaving them, nice habit to find myself in, hope it lasts! Does involve rather a lot of talking to myself I've found though (you know, like come on Toots, just do that/put that away right now). Mind you, the talking to myself is nothing unusual!!! :D

    Got myself another Fake Bake tent (put my one up last night and it was all twisted and stuff) glad it was just my mum who I was tanning and not a 'real' client :rotfl:. So my mums tan looks good which means shes my walking advert (plus im paying back for all that 'non paid' babysitting!!)

    Got another client aswell. They seem to be going nuts at my prices (even though im still making a very decent profit) :rotfl:

    Thanks Cagne...no dogs one? thats speciest lmao!

    Decided to bite the bullet and upload the new products onto my site (its the icicle necklace/bracelet/pendant/earrings if anyone want a nosy) Actually managed to put everything on there, upload photos, do a gallery via Filezilla and add a photo to the gallery on my homepage without (cross fingers) breaking anything!! I am so proud of myself lol now going to have a cuppa to celebrate ;-)

    Wasnt going to put the products on there til autumn as its a winter wedding thing but thought it might as well be on there now and then i can 'big up' the winter thing come Autumn time.

    Hello everyone :)
    Kept OH up until half 5 talking, and then the birds were awake and I couldn't sleep, and then the chickens woke up. Still, got up at mid-day and had a slow breakfast with OH. Am now hunting out properties in Spain and trying to remain optimistic. To be honest I'm sweeping everything under the carpet but it's working okay so far, and I will deal with it all...just not today.

    Well done M&P and Nikki!

    I hope DS is feeling a little better Jo, and thanks Toots, you've given me some food for thought re courses.

    Off to look at your new jewellery Mabel :)
    Signature down for maintenance :rotfl:

    Hi everyone

    Skint can you put me down for £42 ebay sales for the £100 thingy

    Much better today after Tuesdays prodding - Hospital workers/nurses/consultants earn evey penny - my job has it's downsides but facing things like that everyday :eek:

    TMI alert - My Aunty Flo was really nasty after DD was born but endometriosis played a large part of it. I always had primrose oil tablets that helped but for years I had a hot water bottle attached to me for 12 days a month. When I was at work I used to have some heat patches that Tes*o or B*ots have and they lasted 8 hours - great in the Winter but not good in Summer. Not much help really but try different things- and something may help you. Hugs anyway xx
