    Just popping in to say 'hello'
    Im still potting a much as I can, as often as I can, just don't have access to the internet at home for a while, hopefully I will get things sorted soon.
    Things are a bit up in the air here. My 13 year old son has just been diagnosed with Dyspraxia so trying to get my head around that as well as sorting out paperwork ready to file for divorce in May. Add to that Im totally redecorating and Im also studying for a childcare qualification and its all go here at the moment.


    Must dash as my times nearly up...


    Hope everyones keeping well and sending hugs to those that need them xxx

    Oh beccah, you do seem to have your hands full, good luck with everything, hun {{hugs}}

    I just knew something was happening with sparky 'cos he never leaves us for so long. Get well soon sparks {{hugs}} for you too.

    jakes-mum hope Miss Lily feels better today and that jake doesn't get it too :(

    Well, I had a lovely day yesterday looking after the two littlies whilst DD was at work. We spent the day painting (by numbers...I'm not that clever!), making cards and button pictures etc. I was a bit concerned because neither of the GC ate very much and GS had a bit of a dicky tummy so I hope all is well today, but neither of them wanted me to leave. However, 6 and a half hours was enough to leave me [STRIKE]knackered[/STRIKE] erm very tired so I left anyway :D The point of this tale is that I have had 2 NSD's and potted a lovely 14p in change.

    Hugs to anyone in need of one x

    Evening all.

    beccah - you do have a lot going on. God luck and best wishes with everything.

    2 x £1 coins potted this afternoon.

    Loads of cheap fruit and veg from Sainsbury's today, so doing a bit of cooking. Large batch of ministrone and cottage pies (again). Money saved will go in the pot eventually. lol

    £1.86 into the pot today. I went out tonight and ended up being treated, so I have kept the money in my purse and may end up potting it over the weekend if nothing crops up.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    This time next week I should be on a plane (if not delayed), so no potting until the following Thursday. I'm hoping for another £20+ by then. Hoping I can get to £400+ by the end of March to give an average of £100 per month.

    Take care all.

    OOOOH ! Just being 'interested' are you going somewhere nice -if it's warm and sunny can I squeeze in your luggage. Fed up with wind and rain now :(
