    I have been up since 6 and didn't go to bed till 1 hahahaha still in hyper mode!!

    I have now arrange an online craft fair :D i have NOOOOOOOOO idea how it will go but sure its another wee way of hopefully selling some stuff!

    I managed 6 :) yesterday - not bad considering some of them were big tasks!!

    Today i have to concentrate on getting stuff sorted for bootie tomorrow! It was supposed to rain and now its supposed to be good so i had better get myself sorted for it at least :rotfl:

    I also want to move lots of stuff out of the room of doom into the garage so i can at least start using the room for storing craft stuff as its is currently all over the place :o

    Thats is all i am going to plan for today cos they are huge tasks :eek: and i can't lift too much at once or my hip will give in before tomorrow!!

    Good Luck for today's lists :D xxxxx
