    Last day for delivering is Sunday, PaP. I'm taking the whole week off, but they did say that I could have worked in the store :eek: if I wanted.

    They are reviewing the situation regarding home shopping, in the New Year - I really don't know what I will be doing - it's possible that I may lose some hours, or even be put on 'Seasonal'. To be honest, PaP, I'm not really enjoying it that much, but I do need the money.

    Okay, PaP - I'll be totally honest - I have been talking, very seriously, with someone who is prepared to invest in my business, and I really hope to have something agreed by the New Year - the project that I am working on is almost complete - just needs the i's dotted and t's crossed, so to speak - I just don't want to 'jump the gun' but I really hope that my new business is up and running at the start of 2008.

    Well all the luck in the world for that Rog. If anyone can do it you can and i am sure it will be a raving sucess. But as you say one step at a time and if that means a few more weeks/months in the dreaded green uniform so be it :rotfl:i must say though when you turn into the next richard branson i hope you give me and autograph ;)

    Thanks, PaP - I must admit that the 'uniform' does absolutely nothing for me - I hate green, and it is so thin it gives no protection against the cold - I have to put a thick jumper on when I'm delivering, then take it off when I get back to the store - it's worse than school. :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Anyway, PaP - I think last night is catching up with me - I'm off to bed.
    Are you working tomorrow - If not, I'll probably see you on your 'daily thread'
    Goodnight PaP. :wave:

    Well i tried to do it methodically but that didnt work :rolleyes: its only an xmas clean. usually i clean my room once a week but due to the 10day shift i havent had time so it needed really cleaning. So i woke up and cleaned the bomb site of my desk/craft drawrs/surface. Striped my bed and put it into wash then i brushed and moped my floor. While waiting for that to dry i then cleaned the whole bathroom from top to bottom and got rid of all my brothers old toiletries that were out of date or i was sick of cleaning. (hes getting more from me on tuesday so not to worry :rotfl:). I then came back into my room and bleach/dettol cleaned all my surfaces ~ i usually use these wetwipe things for day to day. :rotfl: Then i put all my clothes away and put everything back onto the floor. Then just before i went out i put my bed sheets in the dryer ~ because its my new bed i only have 2 covers so far and i have a winter and summer quilt on my bed so use both covers.

    I will do a proper sort prob thursday or even newyears eve to make a proper pile for ebay and stuff at the momment my rooms tidy and i guess thats all that need to be done... xmas trees still to go up and everything ~ opps :rotfl:

    That took in the region of 3 hours and then i had to go shopping with mum to get the last bits, tea and a pressie for my driving instructor. Now i am stripping paper for my paper mache animal before i start making xmas cards and hampers for mums oh to take back with him tomorow :rolleyes:

    Money wise i spent far too much today :mad: but the wine i picked up was cheaper than it rang through however i didnt notice. So just doing my tallying i dont know if i will make it through the month yet or not? but i suppose i can give less of a money gift to my sister/bil... we shall see i shall work it out properly tonight (if i get time) and post it here. Doesnt help that i have just withdrawn £242.00 for all my driving lessons upto and including my test ~ i am so glad this will be the last payment to him :D

    anywyas best stop chatting and get doing :rotfl:
