Evening all.
Sorry but I haven't had time to read everyone's posts so I hope you are all well.
Am going to make myself a drink and sort out my list for tonightWe don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.0 -
Oh GTX, big hugs to you, you poor thing, sitting there crying all alone. Try to imagine a girl of 24 with brown hair and blue eyes and rosy cheeks and is cuddly size and who is nice and friendly sitting there next to you with her arm around you and saying soothing things (it's me).
Glad you think I don't chat too much Toots, I've been making more of an effort since one page last week had about 4 posts from me on it!
Am going to change the way I post. As I get fed up feeling all behind, I'm going to delete everything from Pigpen's lists that I haven't done, and just post those items when/if I've done them. My personal list I will keep the same. I have the original list in Microsoft Word so I will copy and paste across like normal, and then adjust in my posts as necessary. That way, my posts will feel happier and not like a stick to beat me with! I know it's not a stick, but I only want to see what I've done, not what I haven't! If that makes sense.
Personal list:
Wash up –one sinkful done and work top is now clear! Have washed up more and the cooker is nearly clear! :T One sinkful and a half to go til kitchen is done! :j
Heel balm on heel AM PM MUST DO THIS

Thanks everyone :A"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
