Sealed Pot Challenge ~ 13

AntoMac

Potted a bit of my travel savings as working from home, although putting more of what I’m saving on travel to existing Credit Card balances at the moment
Sue-UU - I will update my sit with my Number I promise. I had 2 stars from you from my previous years on this challenge but inadvertently deleted them with my fat fingers.
Good wishes and good health (both physical and mental) to everyone.

Morning potterssssssss
Well I had to crack open my £1 tin as my parents needed 30 x £1 coins and none of the shops would let them change up some notes!  So £30 in notes has replaced £30 in £1's in the tin!  It was a bit depressing seeing how empty said £1 tin was hopefully I can feed it up more once this Pandemic is over!
I'm pretty sure I have a few silver coins in my purse I can pop in the tin today.
Now I must return to finishing off blanket number 2 (for nephews baby on the way) and maybe carrying on with blanket number 3 (for nieces baby already here) We have a few babies in the family this year!

Hi again Potters! I hope you've all had as good a week as possible and are coming to terms with the latest lockdown, though no real surprise given the amount of cases and especially the number of terribly sad deaths.     We're certainly living in terribly sad and uncertain times....

Uncertain for us SPCers too, especially as we're all saving...but it's too risky to save cash and notes, or I believe it is, so what the blazes do we do for the rest of the SPC year?! I'm carrying on with DH's and my IOU list for now and we'll see what happens.

We're also missing one heck of a lot of members, but that's since the new MSE format, so are they all locked out?! If any members are still able to get to the site, then please show yourselves so we know who's missing????!!!!!

For all those Potters who are poorly or low in anyway, take very good care of yourselves and please get well soon! Love and hugs to you all.

Hi Ant, it really is good to have you back with us again. Good for you in saving money not spent on travel, at least one up side od the current way of life. Don't worry, you have my permission to put the gold stars back on your signature...so long as you remember to put your SPC No on too!

Very good wishes to you for your good health, and thank you.

Excellent potting from you Westie, very well done!

PLEASE EVERYONE, DO READ MY NOTICE ABOVE, IN BOLD.

Not to worry about the cash exchange, jakes-mum, you did your parents a favour and that's the important thing. Though how quickly you'll be able to put it back might be debatable after the news from the other night. Not to worry, what will be will be.

It's lovely that you're making blankets for younger members of the family, I'm doing some little ones for the premature babies at our hospital after an FB appeal.

Keep very safe! 

Another £15 added to the IOU for the pot for when things are safer.

Have a LOVELY WEEKEND folks!! Take care and KEEP VERY HEALTHY, and keep happy!!

Hi Sue-UU
Just to let you know I'm still around. Very little potting as I'm not really going out, only 3 times since lockdown began. Once for a walk, once to the chemist, and once with my Granddaughter as she needed.a blood test. Baby due in 6 weeks.

Hope things are getting better for you and your daughter. I know it hasn't been easy.

Hi Frogletina! It's so very good to see you back again, at least I know you've been able to get o the new formatted MSE site, I'm positive many haven't. Isn't it a really horrible world at present!! I'm so pleased you have your little treasure to look agead to, you've had so much sadness recently, it's high time you had a highlight to look ahead to. No doubt your Granddaughter is a real joy to you. Things are a bit iffy with our Daughter right now, she had a blood test yesterday to see if it's alright for her to have the betters drug for MS, but the results could be a long while in coming back; meanwhile we have to pray no other lesions go to the brain stem. Still, we're keeping hopeful.

Take great care of yourself, and...look ahead to your little one! <3Sue xx

PLEASE EVERYONE, DO READ MY NOTICE IN BOLD IN MY POST ABOVE.

Hello Potters 
I am still here Sue, I can't get the hang of the new format  really, can just about find my diary! but have put all the change I find in the house into my pot. I also do Virtual sealed pot, although I have had to borrow out of that. 
I hope everyone is doing ok. It is all so shockingly hard and sad. 
take care
