Bad start to the week... didn't go to the gym this morning, haven't done my exercises and didn't go to yoga or pilates either... lay on the sofa, read a book and ate junk (but not chocolate ). This is NOT good.

Sounds positively blissful TBH
***green with envy***

Ah well pots washed, dried, put away
Loo seat wiped (pah! Boys!)
Washer full (laundry basket full already :eek:) as it's going to be nice tomorrow, apparently...

sexymouse - fingers crossed for the job

Thanks, and I'm still up for both flylady meets - looking forward to the walk in London, and those who go to southampton could have a quick squizz around the new Ikea.

ETA - Toots Moon hasn't done his intrays yet cos he's just fallen over the hoover and hurt his leg and toes so he's going to bed now! He says that he'll try to do them tomorrow, as his reward for that list is a cake of his choice, and he wants some more of my ginger cake.

evening
So I was thinking I have not flown (fly'ed??) for long enough and thought I might start again tomorrow. Planning to just do something in the chosen room, not necessarily from the list, just something that needs doing.
I've been guilty again of, for example, not dusting until the dust is an inch think, and then I cant face it because its so vile and then it gets dustier etc etc.

I set aside the middle bit of my day - between preschool pickup at 1230 and school pickup at 330 - for lunch, DD2 to sleep, and for stuff to get done. So thats when I am going to try and get stuff done.

I've been really down this last few weeks, havent felt well for about 6 weeks now, GP thinks it might be a sinus infection so on antibiotics for that but not feeling any better. Since I gave up work DH has been away loads, have had school closures cos of snow and flooding, have had 3 lots of sicky bugs, I havent been well, baby has had 2 other fever type bugs, baby has had hives, baby has had a nasty bump on thehead requiring trip to A&E, its been one thing after another. I've decided I need to start living my life again, have 5 mornings a week to play with and I need to start planning things and meeting up with people again. Have just been feeling sorry for myself and am fed up of it! Going to snap out of it!

So I have arranged to go a to a Toddler Group next Monday and Tuesday to try them both out, I've arranged a couple of mornings with friends who have babies the same age-ish as mine (and crucially who have older ones at school to deal with all those issues too) and am going to try and get back to the gym again. I couldnt afford the creche fees but DH is talking about taking a bonus next month so might be able to afford that again

Better get to bed, poor old DH in Germany tomorrow, his lift is arriving at 530am!!!
