Dd made £9 and is chuffed to bits.:T
I made just shy of £43 and am also rather chuffed.:D
We are both tired out.
And we both have an invite to have a table next sunday at another church event. Dd is doubly chuffed.remove 7/100; read 3/10; ex 27/100; make /100; lose /10; save /1000; improve 12/100; protein 30/1000 -

Managed to hurt my shoulder - the manky one - by doing the 'strengthening' exercises first thing yesterday. I learned that yes I can use the 3k dbell for a certain ex, but only later in the day when I'm all mobile and warm. So, it's back to the 900g olive oil bottle for now... Though it's prob a bit less than that as we've opened it and used some :rotfl:.
Had a good time at kids klub. And chatted with the friend in charge of next sunday's event and have offered to help her set up.
Dd has started making more clothes to replace the ones she sold. Though I made her intersperse it with doing her homework!
Am v pleased with my secret santa for work: polar express dvd, popcorn, lebkuchen, hot choc sachets and 11 - yes 11!- make-your-own gliders, as the recipient loves airshows. Am chuffed at getting it done for about £5, and feel that it is properly personalised.
And I have a cmas idea for the 3 daughters (in-law) - the lady with a table next to mine yesterday makes jewellery and would love to give up work and live off that. She'll be there next sunday, so I plan to get dd to choose earrings for them all.
I have sorted out the bags of craft that I took yesterday and streamlined it for next sun, as the focus is for the churches to ice skate, not buy! However, I'll admit that I'd like them to bring some pennies along too...remove 7/100; read 3/10; ex 27/100; make /100; lose /10; save /1000; improve 12/100; protein 30/1000 -
Went to bed fine. Woke around 11.30 with hurting sinuses and snot production overdrive. Continued through the night. Survived the day at work and have had a lovely hot bath with olbas oil. But feel really meh. Very sore throat, hurty ears, tender neck up around my jaw... Plus a sore nose from blowing it so much despite using balm tissues.
Feeling rather sorry for myself!remove 7/100; read 3/10; ex 27/100; make /100; lose /10; save /1000; improve 12/100; protein 30/1000 -

Snot makes a good binding agent or at least DD2's does. Her pillow cases often stick together when she wipes her nose on them when she's ill. Asking santa to give her hankies for christmas.
