    Evening All

    Jings its cold!

    Hope you all had a happy halloween.

    Had a good day at work today - I was BUSY wooo hooo! :T And boss asked if I could manage another project even though I work part time - could I ever. So maybe things are looking up and I won't sit and play with my budget all day and think about all the flyladying I could be doing at home.

    Speaking of home. Came in tonight and there's not a pile of stuff waiting to be done. Got on top of most of it ready for mum's royal visit (she was ok - wanted me to take her to costco cos her membership's run out, and she babysat while DH and I went to pub)

    So I only have 1 load of washing to iron.

    BM to go on for tomorrow's loaf and then I'm going to attack kitchen cupboards with view to storecupboard challenge. Not got a full load for WM so that can't go on.

    PennyP glad to here you're a bit more positive. Keep going. You're an inspiration to me with all your osing.

    :beer: to everyone (thought that might be a change from hugs)

    Well one very productive day here.

    Completely bottomed the living room, wipe skirting boards the works!
    Had tea all prepared by 10am, sorted out all the kids drawers and filled a bag with what doesnt fit them anymore, to send to school for weighing in to make school so money. Plan on sorting mine and DH stuff tommorow aim to fill another bag.

    Washed the kids big thick winter coats to freshen them up, they will be needing them very soon it today is anything to go by!!!

    Went and watch all 3 boys play footy for the school team, they got completly hammered!!! Came home had tea, iv just had a bath and so have 2 out of the 4 kids.

    So about to settle down, just waiting for Dh to arrive home from work have prepared spag bog for his tea.

    I too am due to exchang contracts tomorrow, please keep your fingers crossed for me.
    FINALLY I'm on the right track as well. Should be exchanging tomorrow or Friday, just as soon as my solicitor clarifies a point I raised about ground rent.

    Hugs to all :D

    Edit: PS, Ticklemouse, let me know how it went! Sorry to have neglected my bestest OS friends so much lately...

    Hi all :j

    Well, I've been and "launched". Not as many there as I'd have hoped, but as Nels said - isn't it better to have a few who will become your clients than loads there who just want the free wine? :D I'm expecting to get business from all who were there tonight and the potential for further business from two of them is huge :j :j

    So, HUGE thanks to Nelski, for all her hard work and support. She's been brill, guys :T :T :T Thanks to those who have pm'd and e mailed me too. :D

    Anyway, got home to think that I could pack the boys off to school in their best school uniforms (cos it's photo day tomorrow) with the neighbour who does the Thursday morning run, to find that a: she's ill so I've been asked to do it and b) DS2 accidentally headbutted DS1 in the face so he'll have a huge bruised swollen cheek by tomorrow :( Seeing as I'll be up and dressed, I'll spend some time cleaning this midden :o but I AM going to have a couple of hours to myself.... watching tv or having a lovely bath or just sleeping (insomnia has well and truly struck lately) I may even make a lovely SC meal as it's freezing here tonight so the time has come for heart-warming casseroles and the like.

    Ok, I'm off to bed soon cos I'm worn out. I'm already sat here in PJ's with a cup of hot milk (see, already a contender for international business woman of the year :rotfl:)

    See ya tomorrow

    TM xxx

    PS Rzl - glad everything is finally happening for you hun :j

    Just home and catching up on everyones day.

    Ta for that TM its much appreciated :o:o:o (10% :rotfl: :rotfl: )

    Anyway just to add that I have been part of a number of small business launches in my work capacity and its rare you get people wanting to sign there and then.:T :T :T

    I would tell you guys what it is but I will leave that decision to TM.(but it involves [EMAIL="****@***&&&££$"]****!!!%%%***&&&££$[/EMAIL] dont tell her i told you!!)

    I have to say I warned her in the early days not to give too much away on tinternet as it can become a personal problem if you let the mse community know exactly who you are and what you do.( btw :wave: stalker its been a while!)
    Having said that I know on this board you are hugely supportive and its lovely to see so many of you doing the positive vibe stuff to a new business.

    TM - Go girl you deserve to be successful and guess what - I know you will be:j

    Now its to bed for me as its back to the big guys tomorrow - flight to glasgow have to be there a 6.00am:eek:

    WOOHOO! My cat came back!

    He smells of perfume and soap so the little !!!!!! has a second home, who probably kept him in over halloween after escaped our house. I'm so chuffed!*


    * I also want to strangle him for worrying me so much!
    My Doctor told me that "1 out of 3 people who start smoking will eventually die." The other two apparently became immortal.
