    lenny ~ k1ocray.gif that was sad... but it helped ~ luv you hunni

    la ~ yes i am doing one day at a time, i am not commiting myself to any overtime or any 'goings out' as i feel that will not help. At the momment getting through a day at work is great :rolleyes:

    sammy ~ thanks

    taxi ~ thanks havent got him back yet but fingers crossed it will be tommorow, works going ok however they have asked for more overtime ~ i have said no as the more time i spend in there the more i want to be out of there

    jet ~ thanks, i scrap for others but this will be my first proper book for me but i feel i need it. I produced my first ever page for myself (so i had no brief) on tuesday night and it looks lush, so i will start on oldman next week prob or i may wait untill my holiday. With regards to the maths papers, yes please if you dont mind but i will pay you something for them, even if its just the postage. I shall pm you later as i am already late to get ready for work :o thanks t1zcheekkiss.gif

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    right cards budgets and stuff ~

    the man producing my stamps sent me proffs and i choose 2 one was the cat and the other the paw print, it was only an extra £1 for both of them as i had a smaller size than the auction so i brought both. However i brought the auction and paid through paypal paying the extra £1 but the following day the auction was pulled by ebay. I emailed him yesterday and today he said he had made them and sent them. The postman just arrived and they are here and they are lush.... so cards are full steam ahead, i just need to buy and inking pad and i can start my ebay name/shop etc etc. Then i will do a mass listing... i have around 20 cards ready now but i would like to put 50+ on first time so saturday i will get up erly and just produce cards for 6/7 hours :D

    Budgets are going well, my holiday money is in my current account however i ahvent check my soa for days so i will do that tonight/tommorow. Mums money to the dca hasnt gone out this month though (around the 20th) however today she has a letter from the original creditor so i will prob know why tonight ~ we shall see...

    right i must go i am late :rotfl: due on the bus stop at 11.30 :eek: see you all soon :A

    Fine thanks Beanie - I start work as an ASDA Home Delivery driver on Saturday - well Saturday and Sunday are really 'induction days', so it will be Monday before I am unleashed on the general public.
    It's only part-time - 4 evenings a week, so it will give me time to concentrate on getting my business off the ground - not to mention a few well needed pennies - and 10% discount on shopping. :T
