Great progress with the CV pot OMO! You will have that caravan soon :TA good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

Evening.
Have had an up and down weekend. The down ended up boosting the CV which was the up. Confusing I know, but can't really say much more.
I thought I would just put a few things on this evening and 4 things have sold, so it will go up again tomorrow. We are so close to £1000 I can taste it
Don't think we will make it in 3 days, but we will be close. ( we started on 11th May). I never in a million years expected to have this much by now. But it has really spurred us on.
Hope everyone has a good weekend. The sun has been shining here brightly, although I think we are due more thunder storms this week. I hope we don't, it makes the grass grow, and then I have to cut it. And as you know, I hate gardening, it make my hay fever bad.0 -
Evening all!
I have also been a lurker of late, seem to get caught up in everyday life and don't have a minute to sit down somedays!
OMO - I suffer with terrible hay fever it ruins my summer!
I'm still seeing a fertility consultant and I'm now on some medication which should help with the whole PCOS/Conception issue so fingers crossed I will get an extra special Christmas present this year!
Anyways, this was just a quick post to let you know I'm still here and hope you are all well and the christmas prep is in full swing!
Take Care

I too get drawn to the Christmas bits on pintrest! Also house organizing and decorating!
I am really excited as my OH gets back from the stag weekend is on tomorrowgot half a day booked off work so I can pick him up as soon as they are back :j I have missed him lots the weekend and haven't slept properly as I am not used to having so much room in the bed :rotfl: 16hours and counting
The house is looking alot more organised, didn't get round to having a good sort through the spare room ("junk room")!! I need to get a cupboard in there for my crafty bits and find a better way to store my shoes, then I will hopefully fit all the Christmas gifts in better - oh dear I can feel myself wanting to start tidying it at this hourChristmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:
