So poor I can't even pay attention

I really shouldn't be on here. I have two jobs to apply for and two writing assignments. One for M*neysuperm*rket and one for Thom*s Cook. I have written one of them but I'm stumped on the second. My brain has fried....

My friend loved the shortbread, so I feel a bit better about it now. A group of them have gone out to dinner to celebrate, I couldn't go, lack of money is a real downer sometimes

Have a breather & do it when you have a fresher head on

I much prefer making homemade gifts for people, I did hampers with biscotti, fudge, patchwork cushion covers & bath goodies for close friends last Christmas

I've only got until Thursday to get them done and I'm out all day tomorrow. It's the research that takes the time, the city of Petra of all things, I'd love to go, looks like the most wonderful place.

I made biscotti last week with cranberries and almonds it was lovely and you're right it would make a perfect gift. I think I'll put a bit more thought into it and make my own Christmas hampers. I don't know how to make bath goodies though.

Even without looking I am sure there will be instructions in moneysavingoldstyle, or the christmas forum for making bath stuff...

Sorry to hear that you are still struggling to find work. I am also feeling down heartened about it (and life in general if you read my diary). But we have to just push on through.

What sort of things do you need to know about Petra ? Mr Pinot worked out there a few years ago ? No if he will be of much help, but I know he would be happy to help if he could ! x

Oh Goodness me, why on earth didnt I think of that !! Come to think of it that pilot has been AWOL since forgetting to collect DD1 last Saturday !

Hmmmm leave it with me Piq, I am on the case !! If not I could maybe lend you the camel living in the back garden, but you may not make it back for tea time !
