9.18am and no sign. Maybe you've all finally realised that Marmite is a poison and have gone out to buy some decent apricot jam.

hehe, I was about to post the same sort of heading when I saw yours!

I'm off to get some MARMITE toast and tea then I'll be back as I really need to moan this morning and get some advice (yes, the sisters again!! grrr)

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 09:36

Gah! I wasn't going to MN this morning! I was just checking where the local bootfare is this weekend and my finger slipped on the favourites button! I really, really must get in the loft and start sorting it out. I have no kids during the day on Wednesdays and Thursays anymore and so far all I've managed to do it waste them. No more! Operation 'christmas cash' starts today! I'll be back at lunch time and not before!

Oh and marmite is the food of gods and very rich in B12 & folic acid Looney!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 10:12

Mo - I'm exactly the same. Get free time, plan to do something then waste my time on here!!! Thanks, I'm going to eat even MORE marmite now [breathes hard all round the staffroom.....Mmmmmmm Marmite]

Right, I need some advice.....actually, I'll do another thread and post a link here!

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 10:28

Right, I've done the loft job, which is a relief. Got all the bootfare stuff out and now I'm starting making greetings cards. I'm going all out now for Christmas. I'm going to make loads of cards, none personalized like they usually are, but put my business card in with them. Then I'm going to make some little cakes to sell too and also take my portfolio of birthday cakes to show off. I am perfectly capable of doing all this and I am not going to be a lazy moo anymore! This will be my mantra until Christmas!

Go Mo, go Mo, go Mo

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 10:38

MaureenMLove · 17/10/2007 13:31

That was another thing dh said to me, Have you been pg for 6 years because you haven't stopped eating yet! I can't help having a high metabolism.

Right, lunch hour over for me, I've made a start on 11 cards and want to get another dozen on the go before school time.
