    Maralum - she is so beautiful. She has the cutest nose :D I love babies, all snuggly and the little snuffley noises they make *sigh*, I am just so broody at the moment. Really, really can't give in to it.

    Enjoy her, she is lovely.

    I'm still here...just :o Been over run with ebay listings. I still have 99 items listed, with stuff ended Wednesday and I think about 40 items still need proper descriptions doing :o Mind you, did sell 7 items yesterday, relisted some that didn't, put the rest into a bag under our bed (wait for it...) so that everything that doesn't sell on the relist can be sold as 1 big job lot for carboot ;) If it doesn't sell then (including relisting) then it can go to the charity shop but it WILL BE OUT THIS HOUSE by July ;)

    Right, I don't want to play catch up this week, but the kitchen really needs cleaning, especially the floor, and so does the livingroom as it didn't get done last week BUT, highest priority is to get more listings updated on ebay, post the parcels that need to go tomorrow, laundry (which is going to have to dry inside due to the weather) and, unknown to OH, I'm going to have a look at the car tomorrow. It's not very well at all and he thinks there may be a leak somewhere so, since it's been standing since yesterday evening, I am going to have a close look at all the tubes & connections before we end up with another HUGE garage bill ;)

    Right, need to update a listing where I've been asked a question :o Then I'm going to bed. Night Night. xx
