I'd not make a list for next week and just get the stuff done that is doing your head in as that will make you feel more motivated.0

Hi
I've been so busy that I haven't had much chance to post recently.
I have had some good news - I was recently contacted and asked if an adverstising company could use one of my Doo Yoo reviews. I asked if there was anything in it for me and received a giftcard with £50 on it! I am really pleased with that as I can use it to buy some new clothes before I start work.
Taxi - I did try to not have a list but I seem to function on lists!
Last week my list was:- [STRIKE]Call tax office [/STRIKE]and send off form
- [STRIKE]Call organisation to find out membership cost and send off cheque (saving of £50 on normal membership)[/STRIKE]
- Wedding job 1
- [STRIKE]Exercise X4[/STRIKE]
- Choose fabric for baby blanket for best friend's baby
- Keep tidying bedroom
- Book man for gas safety certificate
- List 5 things on ebay
- Make calls for volunteer job
- [STRIKE]Contact someone for information [/STRIKE]

Hi
It's been a mixed week this week. The list was pretty much neglected. It's been my last full week at my current job and I have really needed to focus on that.
I have a number of projects that I really need to finish at work. I have been suggesting that I am further along than I am but I am hoping that they will be finished this week. I just never seem to have time to do the things that I need at work. I am using the flylady principle of a little bit a time - it will get done this week.
On to more positive things - I did have some good news - some of you will remember I was finished a course in June - I passed!!!:j I was really pleased to hear that but it has only taken me until today to really process it.
I also closed off another two projects for my voluntary job this week. Today went really well.
I really need to get myself focused. I seem to be juggling so many balls at the moment:- wedding plannning
- weight loss (it's been a bit stagnant)
- money saving
- flylady/decluttering
- keeping up with work
Waving to all of you.
