Its a brand new week!

Ive sat around feeling sorry for myself and questioning everything all weekend and generally just going through the motions and have decided - enough is enough.

Thanks to all of you for your support, hugs and kind thoughts (because they really do and have meant a lot to me) but Ive decided to try and resume normal service as quickly as possible. Accept it deal with it move on.

Im only focussing on me and the positives from now on - which is what i should have been doing a long time ago. And my new phone comes today!!! ........which means i have a new number!!

I will text those of you who have my number later so you have the new one.

The phone is coming between 8am and 12noon so I intend to fly round until they come, and then i am off swimming and to the gym with my friend until I pick LO up from school.

Morning all - Im going to do my best this week as the kids and I had a real blitz on Friday and Saturday - we had had quite a lot of work done before that - new kitchen ceiling and new front doorstep - both of which were messy. Work this morning so will start after that.

I also tackled the ironing on Sat - more of the Himalayas than a mountain - and it still only took just over an hour - why do I let it build up?

BTW we were another family with St Georges Day parades yesterday - the Squirrels were parading for the first time and they did so well.

Good luck - Ill post my list later. (Sorry about the lack of apostrophes but every time I try to use one it sends me to Quick Links)

Morning everyone, have been up since 6am when I got up to see DH on his way to work..I think I must be mad as I was reading until midnight last night..lol. But I was good and I have done an hours worth of ironing which I am really pleased about. The box of ironing is slowly going down, although it keeps getting filled up with clean clothes..lol

Oooh checked the seeds in the pots outside earlier and I have little seedlings poking up from the flower seeds I planted. I have no idea what they are as I forgot to put markers on the trays..oops. Still it will be fun finding out what they are when they come up Nothing from the veg seeds yet but they take about 2 weeks to germinate I think..some even take a month. So I'm not that worried yet!!

carol22 - hugs honey
Huge hugs greenbee, take it easy, as rosepink said it is okay to feel down. Please don't beat yourself up over it honey. If you ever need to talk my pm box is always open
Hugs toots, hope you are putting some "me time" on your lists.

Thank you to pigpen and toots for the lists and stars. Without you two our houses would not be as nice as they are.

Morning all. Thanks for the list pigpen and the star chart toots.

I want to be properly in this week. The place looks ok but it doesn't have the level 3 flylady touch so this week I'm determined to get 5 stars I'm working from home today and plan to get today's list plus a few more bits done. I am going to go for my blood tests about 11.30 this morning and need to drop into the Drs too.
