"Sealed Pot Challenge ~ No 6"

Mini_Zoo

Hello :wave:

I would like to join please.

My hubby has sealed up an empty Roses Tin (just need him to make a hole in the top for me now.)

No specific target in mind but we're saving for an October half term holiday.

Absolutely Mini Zoo!! Welcome to the gang! :wave: It sounds like you've already read the first post on page one and have your pot ready, well almost!! Very thrifty!! If you have any questions just ask, we are all very friendly, although some are a little crazy!! Sue will be along soon to give you a Sealed Pot Challenge number, this will be yours for keepers so pop it on your signature when you get it as it helps Sparky (the main man when it comes to spc numbers) when he's working out how much we've saved during the challenge. You've probably seen that some people keep a track of how much they save and some people post on here to say how much they've potted but then forget about it until we get to open our pots later in the year.

When you have time it really helps to pop on here to say hello, it really helps to keep you motivated and potting.

Hey Sue....No, it's not like me....but things happened last Year that have been very difficult (I won't put it on here, it'll bring the Thread down)....and I'm struggling with it...

Mossy...thanks hun...that's good advice....I'll try a Walk next time...

My Mum says "You've just got to keep on keeping on" and I always try to remember that....

I'm feeling a bit more positive this Evening....Just about to get some sleep for a few hours at least....

So, Night Night Everyone...And Sweet Dreams xxx

Evening all.

Was looking forward to a NSD today but then the window cleaner came round. Ah well maybe tomorrow.

£1.02 potted today from my forays in bedrooms and tidying the desks so going well so far.

Hope you are all having a great evening!

Ahh ty everyone for Miss Lilys waves, hugs and well wishes shes in bed sleeping (though not happy as she managed to drop George the hippo down the loo at bedtime :eek: :eek: who has been with her everyday since he came to live with us on her second christmas! So he's now in the washing machine )

Only had about half a dozen trips too the loo today so hoping she will sleep through tonight (mummy is getting very grouchy from 4 nights of no sleep )

I do have some pennies for the pot but I really cant be a**ed to get out of the chair and go get my purse When I finally do drag myself up it will be to go to bed!

Evening all! I hope everyone who is ill or a bit down feels a bit better tomorrow, it's a rubbish time of year when summer seems so far away.

Popping in to report 29p in the pot, 9p from shopping and 20p from OH's wallet. Told him it was lonely so it should go in the pot!

Keep going everyone!

Evening all

Just popped in to say I had an nsd so haven't managed to pot anything today, I think Patrick's starting to feel neglected.

And to say I hope Lily is on the mend soon, she's had a run of bad luck hasn't she so it must be her turn to feel better soon.

And to say I hope those that are feeling a bit down start to feel better soon too, and I agree a walk always helps if you can make yourself get out & active. That's why I try to walk to work most days especially now I've given up the gym.
Sorry I'm rambling now, night night all

Mini Zoo Helloooo:wave: How are you? And good job in getting your OH involved (Don't forget to frisk him at least once a week!!:rotfl:)

*Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it helps so very much.

Whenever I feel it coming on I try to do a bit of exercise in the fresh air, not hours and hours just a brisk 5/10 minute walk outside for a few days (maybe a brisk road kill hunt!! ). It really makes a difference for me and is normally just the boost I need to help stop me from getting in to a funk!! :eek:

Splendid advice, mossy!! That's just what's best to do and helps release the endorphins to make us all feel so much better. Take note, Helen!
