    Thats good Bunbun. At least he'll start to feel better soon with the thyroxin. That'll be one less thing to worry about. Give him a big hug from us, in the morning.

    Evening all

    Posted my ebay items that were paid for today, just checked and the other 2 have now been paid for, typical I can never go to the post office just once!

    Went to vets with little kitty, not sure what it is, just looks like really dry skin, they have taken swabs and will check under the scope tomorrow, we frontlined her just in case and now i have some essential skin oils to apply on her, cost just over £45, could have done without that but hey ho!

    Had to call him today and ask if he has any money ready to give me as I am down to nothing now. He was in a bad mood today said he doesn't think he ever wants to come back now, feel really anxious don't know what is going to happen to me/the house/the pets etc


    Not many surveys available for me today, just done one 20 mins and its only tracked as a prize draw entry :mad: I am sure this happened before last time I did a brain jucier one so think I will give them a miss in future.

    Legend well done on being so organised!

    Giggle well done on the sales :)

    Bunbun glad to hear your OH is feeling better, glad you have some answers for ds as well

    Kec09 - Brain juicer surveys can be quite lucrative. They have their own site where you answer questions in order for teh development of different products. For each section they pay £5. I have been invited to two different ones from their surevys through tolunaand other survey sites and earnt about £50 from them in total for not much work. All goes into paypal as well. So don't give up on them!

    Sorry to hear about your OH, no advice but just wanted to let you know that we're here.

    Managed to redeem on MySurvey - only £5 amazon but all the same it is still £5 more than I had before.

    Must go and do some more opinions on Toluna quite like the idea of making more points there whilst I have no more larger surveys or opinion polls.

    lots of love for everyone, i think we all need it

    Thanks for the advice. I messaged the buyer asking if they wanted me to post them personally so they did not have to wait for the RM or just put them in the post and they replied saying 'That would be great thanks' so Im guessing that means I am ok to post them myself haha

    Also have 2 items with a bid on now, which I am really pleased about as with clothes you dont tend to see any bids till the last minute and I only put these on yesterday and they are on 10 day auctions! I now have the bug though and I am writing the descriptions for a few more items I found, will take the pictures and list them when I get the chance this week, hopefully thursday on a 7 day auction then they will end the same time as the others :D.

    That's what I tend to do giggles (can't sleep so still here lol) I stagger the listing and have them end all over the one weekend. It's easier that way. :)

    Nicola - have pm'd you for a referal - thanks a lot.

    Kec - I've done two this week for Brain juicer from T. I got points for filling in the survey off T and also £5 and £10 paypal for a few minutes work. T do have troubles tracking occasionally but mostly they do get credited correctly when the company who asked for the survey pay up, and the points are allocated.

    I hope kitty's problems are Ok and it can be treated with just what you've done so far. Don't worry about OH, he's probably hurting the same as you. You know what men are like. Please don't rush into anything.

    OH is being Ok since I had a moan on here the other day, If he starts, I just tell him to shut up - I usually just keep my anger in, I think answering back has surprised him, but it's doing me the world of good. :D

    Restricted - I've just had a look at your blankets - they are so lovely. I love that shade of lemon. Well done hun. xxx

    Legendmum; sorry your kiddie has tonsilities. I had that when I was young and had them out. Two of my children had it badly when they were little and both were admitted to hospital at the same time to have them removed. . It's always distressing when littlies are poorly. Hope he recovers soon.

    Kirstymc; Sorry to hear your loosing a day at work. I hope that you will be able to cope with the drop in income.

    Ditto from me as well.

    I had my tonsils out, but they didn't do it till I was 21, I was looking forward to icecream and jelly, but that was for the children..... it was toast, must have to say the best thing the ever did taking them away.
