  • Grrr to your neighbour - that's so rude - can he not use headphones, at least when it's late?

    Hope you get some chill time. Things will all calm down in a week!

  • Hello My Lovelies!!


    A few more hours tomorrow and work is over ...lol well for a while.


    Right, I have a gripe! I again sold something on ebay and is being returned only thing is the person has now quite clearly used it for a work night out ( think glitzy handbag) - and claiming to ebay it's faulty so I have to refund and pay the postage too for the return.


    I've sold hundreds of things on ebay and this is only my third return so not too bad on ration but this is the second big ticket item that has been abused. Who does that?


    Neighbour a bit quieter so obviously bored of that game now..lol
    Yipee.


    Need to make a list : Some cleaning, Clearing and last minute shopping on the list.


    Need to buy and post some special Christmas cards ASAP ..lol


    Then will have to post for all the birthdays in case of delay from xmas.

  • I emailed her and she has changed mind - I do think she is a bit delusional..lol I've got the item and I've given a full refund. Apparently she does this all the time and it's fine in A*rgos...lol


    I had to explain that I was not a shop. I do think there are a few nutcases out there!! Don't want to invest the time in fighting it and I suppose that's what these type of people bank on. Maybe just unlucky to have it happen two or three times in the past year. If you think about it 1% of the 300 items sold so not too bad.


    Totally put me off selling though! sorted out the wardrobe and thinking about a new look for next year ..haircut ( maybe..lol ) and new clothes.


    So if I do I have 60 items to sell so that's my January plan..lol


    38 days until pay day!!!

    Hey lovely Sam!

    Your glitzy bag buyer definitely sounds delusional.

    Yay for new look new year! I'm doing the same. I'm going blonde again at my next visit. I have been thinking of having lots cut off as my hair is quite long, but I think maybe a total colour change is enough for now. I do like to change the colour each 6 months to a year, which is apparently rare enough to get me laughed at in the salon as I'm so "quickly" bored! :D I don't understand how people don't change their hair more often knowing it grows back and can be coloured differently any time we choose!

    Good luck with whatever you decide and also if you choose to change your capsule wardrobe. I'll be working on creating a capsule wardrobe once I have a better idea of which way my work is heading.

    I hope you had a fantastic Christmas.

  • Haha, I don't think I'll be changing my look much for 2016... and certainly not dying my hair, being blonde it takes ages to get rid of any colour and I am far too lazy to be bothered with the upkeep! My hairdresser sees me twice a year if I'm being good and it only ever gets a trim :rotfl:. Although I am considering getting my eyelashes permed as well as tinted - anybody tried that? Mascara is the only make-up I nearly always wear so it would be nice to minimise that effort too!

    I think if anything I want to focus on being even more me, if that makes any sense - paring things down to what really suits me and my lifestyle.

    Sam, your bag buyer is a cheeky mare, whether or not delusional. I'm sure karma will sort it out though so no need for any more thought from us!
