    Hope so Beanie, I'm definitely feeling more positive today. Ugghh, if I didn't let a marriage break up depress me, I'm certainly not letting a twunty head teacher bring me down.

    I have make up on, hair done, and I'm wearing sexy underwear (not that anyone will see :rolleyes:). I'm fighting back lol!

    How're you feeling Beanie, been a bit worried about you recently hun xxx


    ps I've started the complaint letter to the governers. I haven't written very much yet, but have 6 pages of notes that I prepared before the meeting, so hopefully it should be straightforward. I'm hoping that just making a start will help psychologically.

    Well done for staying positive - I really believe there are happier times ahead. Think I'd go crazy if I didn't!

    My jobs for today are:

    [STRIKE]Clean kitchen [/STRIKE] done
    [STRIKE]Fold laundry[/STRIKE] done
    [STRIKE]Go to shop[/STRIKE] not needed

    Doing well today, I've also:

    Cleaned dining area
    Done 2 more loads of washing
    Sorted out and paid council tax (still haven't received a bill but rang and got the details and made a payment, so I'm up to date now)
    Hand washed my 'delicates' ;)

    I've had a quick check through my cupboards and I don't actually need any shopping; I have enough stuff to last through till Monday, so the only reason to go would be just to get out of the house and face seeing real live humans. But I'm going to Tigtag's for dinner (taking my shake, lol), and I'm working tomorrow and Thursday, so I wont be able to hibernate anyway.

    As I'm on a roll, and am now officially an over achiever today :D I am going to add 'tidy living room' to my list, to be done before I go out. I really ought to vac and polish too, and do some ironing, but the dust and the crumpled clothes will still be there tomorrow! :rotfl:

    Thank you! :D

    I managed to tidy and vac the living room, and the house feels so much better than it has done over the last few days. Clutter and mess just makes me feel stressed out and lethargic!

    It's a lovely spring evening now, so sitting with the door open having a well earned glass of water. :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    I forgot to buy Ryan some swimming goggles though, which he needs for school tomorrow, so I am going to have to get up really early and make sure the kids are ready by 8am, so I can nip to Sainsburys before work to try and get some!
