    Short and to the point but perfectly described how I felt,

    I have actually sold something on fleabay, so have made some extra money again, need to post so will add the amount minus postage to my £5 per day total later.

    Not much to report today apart from the server at work is happy again, so not only do I have todays work to do but have yesterdays as well, bye for now.

    Oh today isn't going to be NSD as I have to buy dog food, but I do have a 75p off voucher,

    Thanks Gem, ups and downs seem to be the way it goes at the moment, I really would like stable would make everything that little bit easier.

    Well have exceeded my make £5 per day challenge, and have now sold and had paid for my most recent venture back into the realms of selling on ebay.

    Coast dress to go on tonight and I am sure there must be some other bits, trying to put more expensive stuff on now, the jeans i sold were easy as the pics came off the ad i bought from :rotfl:too big for little old me.

    TODAY WILL BE A NSD! hopefully MD will be down here today then I won't have to eat my soup and will get a lovely free lunch. well fingers crossed that is the plan.

    Other than that not much to report...

    someone is coming to look at the lorry tomorrow have reduced massively as I don't want it falling to pieces over the winter would rather get shot of, and use the interest charges the money will pay off to make up the difference.

    Haircuts tomorrow, but they are free as have swapped for previously given riding lessons with hairdressers DD. The world of barter is still alive and kicking.

    Other than that we are going to decoupage the desk to stop it looking like it was pulled out of the shed (oh but wait it was):rotfl:

    Oh and DS wants to make dinner tomorrow, any suggestions on what a 6 year old can cook, he said without assistance but I'm not really looking forward to a trip to A and E on a Saturday night!

    Have a good Friday peeps, off to do some more work now.

    Just read your whole diary, you're doing really well!

    I have a 6 yr old and there is no way I would let her cook unaided. Her favourite things is wraps, I'd let him chop veggies and give him grated cheese and let him assemble the wraps!
  • The unaided was his suggestion, apparently Mummy needs a treat!

    I love beans on toast but DS doesn't, sketti would pass his approval as well, so think of me with our sketti tomorrow :rotfl:

    Wraps is a good idea as well, although he does normally (when in the mood) grate cheese etc so not sure thats what he wants to do.

    Saurday dinner went better than expected with no toast in sight, so we cheated a bit....

    back to earlier in the week the m&s visit so we had new pots ready to micro. In the freezer we had peas and salmon.

    Because I cheat salmon gets cooked in the mwave as well. So ds seasoned, herbed, and garlic (some very large bits) and instant dinner :D no food poisoning and empty plates all round.

    Friday - NSD

  • again my stupid fingers have made me loose a whole post!!!!

    in brief - 3 NSD since friday, need to order DS xmas pressie but will do that tomoz so I don't ruin my NSD ;)

    Managed most stuff off the list, can't find cable for camera think I might have to talk to exOH as it is still there, but being as though he hasn't replied to a very caring message re a funeral on friday, think it may be less painful just to buy another on fleabay.... so effectively can't fleabay properly could use my phone but camera not great but suppose its better than not listing????

    Hoovering - least said can't do it now obviously as I might disturb my neighbour :rotfl:well I like the excuse anyway.

    Toad was tasty, quite fancy some chocolate but being as though there isn't any the vino will have to do!

    Happy new week all, feeling very upbeat about MSE this week, hopefully it will last
