    This Holiday is fun! I've thrown out 4 black bags worth of stuff and I've barely made a dent in it. Getting there though. (also watched two and a half seasons of sex and the city too... :-))

    Tonight is for relaxing with my Mister who has been very kind and bought me Twilight on DVD. I keep telling him I won't make him watch it but... 'my flat, my rules, my vampire fixation!'

    I hope everyone is well. I'm the most relaxed I've been in ages.

    Bug hugs.

    Hi Kt, not caught up with your diary in an age, life getting in the way and all that.

    Are you still doing your samaritans work?

    Glad to see that time away from work is proving productive.

    Remember in life that you can't move a mountain whole, only one piece at a time and thats the same with life, before you know it all the little changes will have equalled big changes. Am sure if you look back to the person you were six weeks ago you won't really recognise yourself. Its also about realising what your prorities are, so for example decide on your top five priorities and then make them your focus. As you change one thing other often change!

    Thank you. All advice is very welcome. As for the person I was 6 weeks ago... I believe I can still see her echo. I am not only moving forward but reclaiming some of the person I was a while ago too.

    I'm happy and relaxed and it's great.

    Back to work today. Fake smile firmly in place.

    Inside I am plotting the next part of my plan. The main action point for today is to get through today as fast as possible and then slow right down when I get home. Get my application form filled out and posted.

    Things will be good.

    I just wish I hadn't left OH sound asleep in my bed when I left this morning... That made coming to work less fun.

  • Morning

    Glad you are ploting and are making progress Andan is right you know you can't move mountains quickly - tunnelling under them erodes thier stabitility and tunnelling around them is just as much fun (although hard work) - so as SM says - the little things make a huge difference!!

    Will be driving northwards - sorry we didnt manage even a peedie stroll with the pup - I was floored with the cold the minute the course finished and seemed to have this huge appendage attached to me the whole time (nice to have time with OH though) - next time my pretty we do have to catch up and put the world to rights.

    Nice to hear OH is around although snoozing men when you have to get to work is so unfair - I got up with OH this am (ok I am about to drive home but you know team work and all that!!)

    I would love to listen to your evil plots to change the world at first hand :)
