    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    afternoon....quite quiet on here today....do you all have lives or something??

    Took horse out for a hack this morning, it was such a lovely day. Since coming home, started stripping bathroom, ran a bath then came on here.....now DD is stripping the bathroom for me LOL

    Whats everyone up to tonight?

    The hack sounds good.

    Once I escape from her - 13 mins max - I am going to light a huge fire, pour the wine and see what rubbish is on tv. Exciting huh!

    I may possibly tidy my craft cupboard ready to sell some dies. But that may be tomorrow. :D

    Bookie - great result!

    AlwaysAngelic, there's always room for one more!

    Well, I've done more than I planned housework today and I'm going to do even more. I'm trying to decide whether to put on a load of washing now since I'm motivated or leave it till after midnight when it's cheaper.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Thanks for the warm welcome :) I've been a serial lurker for ages but thought it was time to sign up properly and say hello. I need a bit of motivation to get my finances sorted out.

    Reet, hubby is away for the night and, bless him, he left me £20 in case I needed anything or fancied a pint round the local (I have zero cash till payday next friday). I think I may just squirrel the cash away and have a no spend day :D
