:rotfl: oh you're a pair of clowns :rotfl:

Somehow, I'm not sure how, I have managed to get my emergency fund up to £490. :j £10 short of my target though. :mad: I need to find £10. Its amazing how i have struggled for years to get together this fund but having that boost last week just seemed to tip me the other way and now im finding money easier. Strange.

Today is LOTS of sewing with a half hour break to tidy DS's room and a quick vacuum of the car. Its full of sweeties and disgusting with a added plate in the door pocket!:eek:

I'm trying to tidy before DS goes to school but he is being very clingy again. I will try to escape in a minute.

So a day of business related stuff and cleaning, but i will have the house to myself so I can blast out Dave R while I'm at it.

Have a good day.

Thanks Abba. I didnt get the extra £10 yesterday but will when I get paid for the work i did but that wont be until the weekend. More sewing today, I shall be glad to see the back of pink georgette. I hane another one I've already swapped the skirt on which they have now decided the want the bodice altered. So off comes the skirt again. :eek: I think i will take up mums trouser just to break up the day.

I have woke this morning feeling extremely on edge. My whole body is like jelly and I'm shaking. There is no reason I can think of and its something i usually only get when I'm going off to work. I don't know, perhaps too much focus on money. Or perhaps its because I'm making zero headway with the three week list as I have so much sewing on. Perhaps part of the day needs to be spent on other things.

DS has his hearing test today. Its an extra one at the health centre. They are very thorough and understand that if he becomes unfocussed they need to bring him back to what he is doing. His test results are always near normal when its done there. At the hospital they do about 10 sounds with him mostly looking around the room and not focussed then they say he can barely hear. They dont seem to realise he is just not taking any notice of what they or he is meant to be doing, and wont listen to me when i ask them to do it again with him focussed. The hearing lady at the health centre is concerned because his results are all over 5he place so she kindly booked him in for a test a week becore his hospital one to have something to work from.

Oh well, time to get on if i can dislodge DS from my lap where he has been sleeping since we got back from dropping DH off.

Have a good day.

I hope you find your balance and the hospital appointment with small boy goes well

I too have woken feeling the weight of all the uncomfortable changes I am implementing. We are both doing great. Big changes have an impact on our bodies. I plan to have a day of doing stuff but I will also be kind to myself. I might read a magazine with a large cup of cinnamon tea whilst listening to some classical music for 20 minutes today.

Be kind to yourself at some point today

Maybe it's the hearing test that has unsettled you. I know I cope less well with uncertainty that with things mounting up. Take care.

Thank you both and you're both right.

I think we are all so hard on ourselves at times. We are fighting battles with money which may makes others give up but we are all doing so tremendously well. :T I do think it's a bit like a drug though, you just want more and more success. I think I tend to focus so much on one thing and forget other stuff like being careful about my health. We should all give ourselves 20 minutes per day to just be.

Have a fantastic day both.
