Kerri, Ive been gone for a couple of days and look how much has been going
. Glad you enjoyed the time youspent with your nephew at the weekend.
Well done with the fleabaying, thats a nice little bit of bunce money coming your way !
Re your sister and the buggy covers, that really did make me laugh. I really do hope she has her LBM sometime soon or I dont think your nerves or patience will stand it for much longer ! Could she not customise the buggy, tie a few ribbons, pin on some badges :rotfl:, something like that , then it wont look the same and I'm sure it woudl be much cheaper.
Lol at brizzled spitting her tea everywhere :rotfl:
I'm sure you will be fine when OH goes away, 7 weeks will fly by in a flash. Just make sure you keep yourself really busy and he will be back before you know it .:)LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

£20 on petrol and 70p on a daim bar yesterday. Some more fleabayers have paid today and I relisted 32 items that hadn't sold in the last 90 days. One of the items that didn't sell last week has a bid of 99p
will just keep relisting I think until it's all gone, loading on a few extras each week. I am going to aim for having 25 items listed a week, that'll cover my 100 99p limit
I've got a boring day today of documentation, but I also have beans on toast for lunch so should also be a NSD. I was going to have to buy apples for a crumble this evening, but my housemate has already got some seasoned and stewed in the freezer. We have friends coming over tonight and she's cooking pizza, garlic bread, and a salad. So I've offered to do the pudding. A nice hearty apple crumble just what you need on these cold nightsNever made one before, going to make the crumble with oats instead of flour, so that should be an experience.
Need to transfer the beans money into my 2nd purse as well as they came out of the cupboard. Will do that later on today
Aw thansks pinot... it's not 7 weeks though, it's 4 months!!! Regarding my sister and the buggy, she was a lot worse she wanted all new stuff for this baby a few months ago. She's since decided she can keep the baby bouncer even though it doesn't vibrate?!?!?

The odd totals were doing my head in, so have paid another £7.50 to Freemans. I know I owe OH £100 and should pay him first, but I'm paying him that back when paypal clears
He's said I don't need to pay him until I get paid but I want to pay him asap
