Re: not coping

D does enjoy work. I think she enjoys earning her own money. With school this year and work she hasn't got much time for anything else.

S does a bit of sport on the weekend, but loves his xbox the most!! Sometimes I have to try and get him of it and out of the house 🤔

Just put on a load of washing too.

Sounds like you have got a fair bit done yourself hon @outlander A cuppa and having a rest sounds like a good idea.

Have you got any plans for this afternoon?

Have to drive D to her friends house for her b'day. Her friend lives about 45 mins away however so will be stuck in the car for awhile.

Re: not coping

its good when they have their independence @Snowie my sisters really trying to get a proper job too but no wheres hiring and because shes not 14 like most places want its even harder. she has a job thats usually a few hrs on the weekend though so at least its something

lol tptical kids, technology rules the world now but i think everyones habits changed with covid. being on tough restrictions and not even being allowed out of the house formed new habits .

i dont have much else on this arvo now thankfully cause im really quite tired.
D sounds like a social butterfly!

Re: not coping

D is a socail butterfly!! She has to be picked up at 10 tonight too. I am hoping H can pick her up so I don't have to drive that late at night.

Sounds like a nice quiet afternoon might be on the cards @outlander I hope you can at least rest hon if not even have a nap. Just made myself a cuppa and sitting down with the dog watching some tv

Re: not coping

hopefully H can pick her up later tonight @Snowie

im watching my 600 pound life right now. and sort of looking at things i can do to get my little buissiness up and running. im aiming for next year but i want to find some new supplier that i can order products through to keep making hampers etc and putting my own designs onto things like i was doing-kind of like new and improved

do you have much else on today

@Sans911 hows your day looking today?

Re: not coping

Hoping so @outlander that he can pick her up. Guess we will see how much he has had to drink by that stage. He is at golf at the moment to who knows 🤔🤔

Your business sounds like a great idea hon. I hope it takes off for you and that you can get lots of orders. What sort of hampers would you do?

Not much else on today, just put on another load of washing and have some ironing to do too, but that can wait till tomorrow if need be.

Hi @Sans911 hoping your day is going ok 💜💜

Re: not coping

Not to busy a day here @outlander @outlander but I do have to go very soon. Just a few things to pick up, then off to the op shop.

Have a reasonable day everyone. I'll catch up with you all tonight.

Re: not coping

@Snowie i make different sorts of hampers really. I mainly focus more on the personalised wellness ones so lots of the pamper type stuff and i also add in personalised cups and coasters as part of it so ive had to find some reliable suppliers for that.
when it comes to easter, fathers day mothers day christmas valentines day or other special occassions i make things in those themes so will make like easter baskets or put some eastery stuff into a cup as a small gift. i like to try and keep things affordable so im trying to find suppliers where i can buy things for the hampers etc that will help me to do that. over the next year my plan is to collect items that i can use or will use and have a good supply of everything first that way i wont have to stress to much if supplies go down. the only thing that i wont buy till someone orders is more like the food items that id add in there ie chocolates
