    Just had an order for a birthstone necklace :) so another £3 towards kits for kids total now at £39, not as much as Mg's total but it all helps :)


    Ok update another 2 pairs of earrings this morning :) total now £45, Maybe more if the profit from the bracelet and necklace is more.

    Off to have my coaching call :j

    Can I leave you with something to ponder?

    I wonder whether if may be appropriate to have modified versions of our CV's on the matrix site so that we can see what peoples skills and interests are - as well as seeing the glimmers of what they hope their dream life, their goal, their hedgehog idea might be.

    I was wondering about this myself - but I thought just a basic profile for people to fill out rather than a CV type thing - & also to have a category - "can do at a push" as people on this thread (me included) tend to be a bit humble about what they can actually do

    I wold suggest a fifth thread: who is who.

    It would be place for everyone to introduce themselves tell what they do and where they live and what they dream about. We could then find what resources we have in one place.

    ETA: oops, hadn't read previous posts, this has already been thought about

    And then some of us have a lot to be humble about...

  • I too would like the make do and mend stuff to stick around here :o

    I wonder whether a lot of the energy here is generated by lots of things all being thrown into the mix together? So if they were separated out too much would we lose some of that? Just randomly thinking, might be talking rubbish! :)

    I wonder whether it might be best to keep this thread how it is - MG and her challenges, making do and mend, with throw in links to Mr Big's challenges, everyone dipping in ideas and encouraging people - and then when something specific starts to take off - Claire's jewelry, Kits for Kids, other people's things, micro financing, discussion gets moved over to the other place for more detailed discussion, then we're not restricted by this site's rules, or making the poor moderators chew on their fingernails too much :D

    I just don't want us to lose the cheery energy we have by dissipating it too much!

    But I might just not know what I'm talking about, who knows :D Why not try it and see what happens? :D
    :naughty::naughty::naughty::naughty::naughty:
    Enough of that talk - you put it very well.
    Me - quite happy here - but can absolutely see why when an idea has been mulled over and sprouted it might need to be taken somewhere else to be worked on.

    So MSE is the Nursery - and the Matrix Forum the Big School :rotfl:

    Clairewop - I think I might have found the beads used in the earings and bracelet I saw, if not the silver ones are very similar.
