Hi all, sorry to hear ur little man is poorly Legend, hope he sleeps better tonite, u will i reackon!!
Been busy here, made twinks and biscuits that are iced and sprinkled with hundreds and thousands,,they are my fav,,also did roast pork, 5 veg, roasties and have used up a pear and couple of apples that were going wrinkly,,have dug some blackberries out the freezer and made a crumble to have later once kids are in bed ;-)
Oh was out all day yesterday at an away footie match,, he got home at 10pm and I had bought 2 baby rabbits!! He doesnt like animals so he was more than thrilled to find the indoor hutch/cage i bought MWWAAHHHH They will be going outside to live in a couple of weeks. They are 5.5 weeks old and soooo sweet! If i could remember where to upload photos first I would put a photo on here.
My 3 kids are thrilled we have been cuddling them on and off since yesterday. Its been 6/7 yrs since we last had rabbits,,kids are now able to look after them so all i have to do is cuddle them and pay for insurance,food and anything else they will need ;-)
It was all paid with money i had saved,,but i really wanted to buy them so i did lol (so rubbish at saving lol)
Half term so i am planning on getting a few more surveys done,,only working 3 days this week.
I have a local company to call tomorrow that pay you to test creams,lotions and potions,,will see if they will accept me,,i have a few friends who test for them, it pays well ;-)
I have loads to get on ebay,,i will try upload using turbo lister throughout the week,didnt sell much this week about £16 worth,,will try put a couple things on tonight,,maybe relist some that didnt sell.
Plan on finishing the decorating,planting some seeds and de cluttering the summerhouse this week! But my kitchenaid mixer is being delivered tomorrow after being fixed and serviced at kitchenaid,,so i think tomorrow afternoon may involve lots of baking !!I am off slimmingworld until next week,,had 2 weeks off plan and enjoying every minute of it!!!
have a fab week all ;-)

Savvy, I did save you all a whole pizza, but then I ate it with the OH for lunch today. Lol. Sorry to hear you're having ebay dramas too. Some people are so pedantic. If it is not exactly what they want then they should return it. Bloody people. Grr.

Kirsty I really really want a kitchenaid. I hinted to the OH but he just doesn't get my hints Bet your rabbits are cute as anything. The site is photobucket that I put mine onto.

Just got another trial from 2lna

Thanks for all the support everyone x

Legend hope you get some better sleep tonight.

Hope everyone with poorly washing machines manages to get them sorted!

I took a chance with T as I did a few quick polls and was directed to a survey, 25 mins later and it says thanks your info has been stored (or something along those lines) but it didn't direct me back to T when they normally do, its not showing on my survey list even as a prize draw entry, so I have nothing at all to show for that :mad:

Sold 5 items on ebay and have 3 still to finish with bids on, up to £113 for the 8 items, so really please with that!

Hi all, hope you are all ok, seems like we are all having a bit of a time at the moment in one way or another!!

Not done any money making this weekend as i have had my eyes on the screen doing an OU assignment which thankfully is 98% done

Not had any emails today so at least i dont feel like i have missed much

Hoping to be back to normal tomorrow

I have seen a few people mention a Kitchenaid recently but I have never heard of it! What is it?

kirsty822001

Ahh Esmer and Twinklekat it is a lovely machine, mine has been missing in action for nearly a year! The 'gearbox' stoppped working,,i think,,it wouldnt turn on the lever was jammed,,anyhow i figured it would cost a fortune to have it fixed,,i saw a thread on here about them and said mine was broke an I just wanted to find someone to fix it,,,only place was kitchenaid I had already called them and discovered mine was out of warranty, they said £50 to collect it and i thought they said plus fixing it if they can,,, anyhow the lady on the thread worked for kitchenaid and said that they do charge £50 but its usually less than £100 to have it sorted usually around £75,,,so for my birthday this year in feb (i did ask oh to get it fixed for my xmas pressie) my hubby called them,,i packed it up 2 weeks ago and they called last weeek,,,£70 and its all fixed and fully serviced!
My sister inlaw always says it even looks like it makes the best cakes,,,lol it really does!
I make pizza dough in it too,,thats always lovely.
Oh bought it for me as i complained he had bought surround sound for the living room (boring lol) and a season ticket for his fav footie team! I am so looking forward to using it again. I shall make my cake with u both in mind!

Here are my babies I bought yesterday!!! omg dont even get me started on how soft and cuddly they are!!
