  • Hi thriftylass :hello:

    Sorry I haven't been around - no excuses, just been really (really) lazy :rolleyes:.

    I need to focus and start getting things done again. Unfortunately, my list looks pretty much the same as the last time I was here, but it's a start.



    Here's my list for the week.
    • Do any new things on the day they come in.
    • Housework.
    • Washing.
    • Ironing.
    • Mealplan, then go shopping and get enough food for the week.
    • Send for 2 freebies.
    • Enter some competitions every day.
    • Update £20,000 and Crimbo Crackers challenges.
    • Do my daily scratch/clicks routine every day.
    • Clear out some paperwork at work every day.
    • Throw/recycle/donate one thing every day.
    • Have something to eat and wash-up before I put the computer on every night.
    • Write to pension scheme to update details.
    • Earn some money on AQA.
    • Get a new battery for my watch.
    • Do one thing every day to look/feel physically better.
    I think that will do for this week.

    Have a good weekend.

    Hi. Happy Monday morning :rolleyes:

    I'm back to a daily list in the hope of actually getting some things done and getting into some new routines, so today I will
    • Do my daily scratch/clicks routine. Done
    • Clear out some paperwork at work. Not done - no time
    • Throw/recycle/donate one thing.Done
    • Have something to eat and wash-up before I put the computer on tonight. Sort of - got back so late didn't put computer on at all and had eaten at work.
    • Do one thing to help me look/feel physically better. Sort of - had a good night's sleep!
    I should do something off the weekly list, but I'm too tired to think about it at the moment - maybe after another cup of tea :).

    Have a good day.
