First year - £42k to £35k....

Emzilla

One of the main things I want to achieve this month is to get enough Amazon vouchers to order my mum's Christmas present: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Roberts-Zoombox-DAB-FM-Player/dp/B002RMDHFO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1349102152&sr=8-3

I'm buying it and then my sister will give me half in cash. With the £40 she gives me, I can use this for my uncle's birthday and Christmas present (£10 for each) and my auntie's and BIL's Christmas presents (£10 each).

I've already got £5 from Swagbucks and have just claimed £5 from Superpoints.

I've seen crochet patterns for making these, although have no idea whether they would be any good or not!

Other than that, I think you could sew them yourself quite easily. Although if you haven't got any fabric spare and have to buy it, it may work out just as good value to buy them ready made?

I would like to make them myself. I'm trying to think what fabric would be good. I can probably cut up an old cotton top or something and make them from that. I guess I could try using the fabric with my cleanser first to see if it works.

Em they look like microfibre clothone side and normal fabric the other. Sewn in a circle and the pinking sheared off to stop fraying. Seems very easy to me.

This blog used nappy's but then go onto suggest fabric/towelin. I suppose those £1 shop baby muslin would do the same thing :cool:

Thanks Pap . Will see what I have at home, but will use muslins if necessary.

Afternoon

I don't know what's wrong with me at the moment. I've just got no motivation whatsoever. My cold has gone, and I'm not coughing at night anymore (thank god!!), so I've got no excuses. Need to kick myself up the backside and start getting more done during the day.

Tonight, I'm going to try making one of my cleansing pads to see how it turns out. I think I've got some suitable material, so will try that and let you all know how it went tomorrow morning.

Then from tomorrow I'm going to concentrate on one of my money making ideas a day. I've got some online MS work to do (£39 worth at the moment), so I'll work on that tomorrow.

It can be hard to get going again if a cold has taken a lot out of you, so don't be too hard on yourself expecting to be raring to go as soon as it's gone xx

I know, I guess it has only been the past 2-3 nights that I've got a full night's sleep, so maybe my energy levels have to build up again. The hospital gave me a load of new vitamins though, so I thought I might be revitalised thanks to them :rotfl:.

I believe much more in the healing properties of Coke, crisps and watching TV :rotfl::rotfl:
