    So...Nora's Thoughts is officially in business!

    First item officially sold yesterday and was packaged and posted this morning....and I've bored even the post office to death with my wide grin and excitement!

    So anyway, a big smiley thank you to my first customer (you know who you are...:A).

    I *ahem* may have overdone the packaging lark, but I firmly believe that distribution of bubblewrap across the nation will save the NHS bill on counselling stressed people. :D

    So, did I mention that something sold? *runs around cheering*

    Hope everyone else's day is matching up!

  • Well, well lovely Nora, something spooky happened on Thursday....
    Mr Lassy was given loads of bags of shrapnel by a colleague who was retiring and couldn't be bothered to get them changed, so Mr Lassy brought them home as a present for me *swoon*

    Then we went off to the solicitors to sign the contracts on our new house

    Then Mr Lassy said I should visit the coinstar and spend the proceeds on something nice to put in new house...

    I had spied the lovely vases and couldn't think of anything more special to have full of flowers on my kitchen windowsill when we finally get to move in ( hopefully in a couple of weeks!)
    :beer:
    I will happily recycle the packaging to safely transport my knick nacks, so it's all good xxx


    p.s. How big is the parcel pet?? I have a mental image of it being the size of my last mega order from Approved Food:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Wooooohooo :j:j

    I agree about bubble wrap. They should put it in waiting rooms instead of dull magazines. Then everybody would be happy while they waited :D

    Congratulations Nora and Northern Lassy - hope you'll be very happy in your new home (with a gorgeous vase).
