"Sealed Pot Challenge ~ No 6"
Comments

Done a booty today in the freezing wind :eek: done rather poor, only made £30, spent most of my time running after things that had blown of the table :mad::rotfl:
I potted all the change I had made, about £5 in total. Notes are going towards our weekend away next weekend.
Hope everyone had a nice weekend. X"sealed pot challenge" member 082 6-£450 7 £860 banked :staradmin :staradmin

I managed to find 31p for the pot last night so that was good, have spent today googling 'sun issues' as we had our first rays of the year today, I literally spent 2 minutes stood on the doorstep for a little vitamin D boost (as certain people keep on at me about it and 'thats the reason im so poorly' :mad:) and within 20 minutes, im sick as a dog AGAIN :mad: ive never been able to tolerate the sun, every holiday as a child I would end up with sunstroke, terrible sunburn and be left in the apartment with the curtains closed for 3 days throwing up no matter how much sun block my mother slapped on me, how many tshirts I wore in the pool and hats on my head, it was never escaped
I have never ever been able to tan, not even in one of those special tanning booths that promise you a golden glow in 6 sessions :eek: its red or white!
Anyway, with all my other issues matching a fair few of the symptoms, ive decided to ask the doc to retest for Lupus and more thoroughly and quite by accident stumbled upon a name for my issues with my hands (they have always gone blue within minutes in the cold, even with knitted gloves on) which is also tied in with lupus. No doubt ill come back with another diagnosis of M.E :mad: but its always worth giving the doc a push just to remind him im still hereSPC No 002 SPC(3) £285/£250 (4) £519.84/£500 (5) £768.32/£500 (6) £911.30/£600 (7) £913.23/£600 (8) £1184.82/£750 (9) £2864.04/£750 (10) £3846.25/£1000 (11) £1779.72/£1000 (12) £1596.55/£1000 (13) £1534.70/£1000 (14) £775.60/£1000 (15) £700.20/£1000 (16) £2081.34/£1000 (17) £1691.15/£1000 (18) £225/£10000 -

However I have just become debt free as of todayso may try and find an odd pound to pot that would have gone towards the debt.
congrats on becoming debt free..... WELL DONE!:DHey guys,
another lickle rummage in hubby's trousers and potted the contents - hee hee. He'll never notice.
Am tempted to count the pottage so far as it's getting rather full (and very heavy) now. Not sure whether to empty, count and bank it to refill the pot again, or start a new pot....???
Congrats/hugs to all who need them... x
Liked that, a rummage in hubby's trousers - he'll never notice, was he wearing them then???:rotfl:
Sue-UU - glad to see you back...
Jakes-Mum - hugs to you....
I have had another NSD but found £2.31 in DH pockets for the vw camper van pot. (He had changed from jeans to leather biker trousers and I found the wonga!).
It was great biking weather, hope its a sign of a good summer to come girls (and sparky).
