    wow afternoon at the Bingo - i usually end up a bit worse for wear, cant play bingo without having a wee drink, take it you didnt win! well havent got my list finished yet - sat down and nodded off! have to get washing done and dried too - only need to make sure kids have clothes for 3 days this week they are off for inservice thurs/fri and o/h has taken couple of days off, so he can play catch up if i havent caught up by then,

    Have you seen anything inspiring at the craft fairs? i keep seeing different things and thinking i could do that, buy the stuff and then leave it lying! Must get my christmas head on and see what i still have to get, seems to be flying in now, started off in blaze of glory but that hasnt lasted long - for once i've taken the days before christmas off . right must get moving (try again!) catch up later

    Hey Skint, Elly Jo, and anyone else lurking in the shadows! ;)

    Eek - only a few weeks till christmas and I have done nothing....ooops! I can't believe it is so close, yet I am convinced it is still only about March ..... really need to get my head around it. Maybe we can motivate each other Skint?

    Sounds like you had fun at the Bingo with your mom Elly, I have never played Bingo lol! Whens your next Zumba class Elly??


    Jo - hows the catching up and fun going? ;)

    Just had a quick drive round the roads I need to collect from - I ask for books to be put out in the morning but have discovered that going straight from school run means not many are out, but thought I would have a quick look before walking out later, anyway collected 5 books (our of about 50!!), one saying no more needed, and one £14 order .. yay as it all adds up!!

    Going to create a facebook avon page later too - yay!! Thats if I get some housework done anyway!

    oh no Jo, what happened to the laptop? Hope you find a way to sort it soon :(

    Free Zumba sounds fab!!

    Right, having a bad day, letting emotions get on top of me (why can you make a decision with your head but then your emotions tip everything on its head???) anyway just decided to stop wallowing and make the best of it ... first stop is putting the kettle on for a cuppa, with some biscuits....anyone fancy joining me?

  • Hi Everyone

    Hope everyone is ok.

    Not been on here for ages as I have come to a full stop with the 10,000 thing (well came to a full stop around July tbh).

    No more tutoring now because of the cuts so 2 weeks to go before being jobless!! Any money I make from ebay will go straight on the bills so I can't see me making any 'extra' money for months and months until I get another job.

    Seems silly I know but been feeling really down since July when contract came to an end, but tried being a sessional tutor and really don't like the job and 4 hours a weeks is not enough. So deceided to leave it all behind and make a fresh start.

    Do anyone know anyboy who is a Tupperware consultant.....just wondering what the outlay and commission is.

    Are you all going to do another challenge in January?
