    Morning All,
    Saucy – OMFG, what an awful experience such a crap makeover! I think my mouth kind of hung open after the stabbed in the head with the scissors! Locked in the room! Wow!

    Amber – new kitty! Yay!!! I have some bits to do around the house to make the home a bit more cat friendly. But, after spending time with my mates lovely cat – I want a cat definitely. There is a cat rescue home near me so next year I will literally be the cat’s mother!

    Nixi – your dark secrets are coming out mwahahahaha you used to be one of those makeover photographers! I had one once to cheer me up after a crap breakup. Every single shot of me looked vile, I looked crosseyed/boss eyed in nearly every shot. LOL for the client on the last day – business meeting! Ha!!!

    Em – nothing wrong with feeling down it is unnatural and unrealistic to expect to bouncing off the walls with happiness all the time. Unfortunately life is all about highs and lows. Got this from Paulo Coelho – I am a fan on facebook: ‘As a friend of mine says: Don’t hide behind fake smiles, it’s OK to not be alright’ hugs and I will even throw in a kiss too mwah xxx

    Mambury – saw the pox update on facebook- pox are poxy, still have my scars now the itching was terrible! Hope the little ones feel better (and less itchy soon)

    Elly – I hope that the council tax gets sorted! Thanks for your message today I will be a pimp x

    Rosie – just looking at your total... well done!

    I have realised I have really been procrastinating over a few key bits, but I know I am dragging my feet as I am being a bit chicken. So, I am going to dust down my commitments from the last thread and finish off and little projects that I have left.

    On the money making front I feel quite proud of myself, now in the £3000 zone which I didn’t think that I would make as the money making had come to a bit of a standstill.

    Had £600 from a client project, and another £42 for some freelance work – so I am well pleased. I will have to do a deep cleanse of my bedroom as the OH is away at V festival so I have a great opportunity to get some bits and pieces done and even better watch my Sex and the City Boxset all.over.again (saw the film which was a bit disappointing to be honest – but the boxset will remind me how great it was).

    Also, tweaking the launch again – so Nixi expect a message from me I need some of your sage PR wisdom.

    Hugs to all and have a money making (and happy) Friday.

    Guess what... just had my first sale from the website!! Soooo excited.... how sad is that!

    Hey Elly.... have fun!
    sealed pot challange #572!
    Garden fund - £0!!:D
    £0/£10k
  • Yay, that's fantastic Mambury! What did you sell?

    Have a great time, Elly :)

    Will be packing in a bit, but still have to pick up a little from town tomorrow so I guess it feels like it's not worth doing if I can't finish it. And I'm feeling quite scared now, to be honest! Have just checked in online, and printed the intenaries for everything. Scary!
    Signature down for maintenance :rotfl:
