Welll after a lovely day yesterday, I had started to get my dahlias chopped down and the tubers kept aside, was having a re jig in a flower bed and hubby wanted some chocolate so Cody and I toddled off to the shop.

Anyway after a quick trip down there and a long game of football on the local park it was then quite late and never got chance to finish the bed… never mind I thought I shall finish it tomorrow….hahahahaha what a joke quite chilly today so my flower bed now looks like this


shameful i know… wait to you see this…

that was me sweet peas!!!
and this was my ClematisMiss Bateman, hadnt even realised it had flowered and its been nibbled a slow death!!

And a Butterfly maple which I stupidly moved has gone into complete shcok and …well you can see whats happened

Mind you not all is bad, my Sedum is now a glorious pink


and one of my cheap £1.99 hebes is flowering nicely

My Alcea Rosea Creme de cassis Holyhocks have shot so so high and the new growth is catching up fast.

these are the last of my flowering Dahlias :o(

so today Cody and I baked a Cherry pie Mmmmm

and with the remainder pastry we made some girls and boys to cover in jam?

love to you all

Cody's lovely smile made me smile too. It sounds like you had a lovely fun day together. It's sad when it's time to remove the summer flowers but also exciting to be planning a rejig. Something to look forward to for next year.

wohoo

enjoy the day

That sounds great Jen! Mind you dont spend more than you make on the products! Thats what I used to do! LOL!
If the job was rubbish, maybe its as well you didnt get it! We dont want you miserable!

23 Sep, 2009

 

I think you'd be very good as a party plan demonstrator Jen and it will suit your life too, hours to fit in with your life. Good luck! I think those products will suit you much better than T********e. LOL

23 Sep, 2009

 

is that the plastics Lily2 ? hehehe
it was a good job Madperth really but as I didnt get it its now rubbish hehehe

Just had my party planner kit arrive
so excited

Good luck with it Sweetie! What're you selling?
Not V*******s I hope! Lol!

23 Sep, 2009

 

thanks hun
its cosmetics,homewear,aromatherapy and jewellery nothing else!!! hehehe
well possibly also my Soul as loving most of the products hehehe

23 Sep, 2009

 

Yes, as I thought - right up your street, def better than the plastic! Hope you get good staff discount :o)))

23 Sep, 2009

 

Like I said, dont go nuts! I did, & those products are really good, but not cheap!

23 Sep, 2009

 

sorry about the intervirew jen guess your destine for better things :o), the home party selling thingy sounds like it could be fun, like mari says done go spending to much on products if thats what you have to do, i remember at one time you didnt have to pay for your own trial products with these firms, guess they think if people pay for things they will keep up with it more, anyway im sure with your lovely personality you will do well, fingers crossed for you, xx

23 Sep, 2009

 

Jen, have sent you a pm.

23 Sep, 2009

Got it Jen, & answered!

23 Sep, 2009

 

Hope you do well at your PP job, they can be great fun. I was a T********e Manager for a while when my boys were small. Out here we have A*** , Ann S*****s and I've seen your Company as well advertising for agents.
As for buying the products (Mari/Sanbaz) I ended up with a 'huge' box of 'plastic' thingy's - at least they didn't have a shelf life though :-)
Good luck Chris xx
