  • So, yet again a bit of a gap between my posts which wasn't intentional. Time going by so quickly. Still going swimming. Seen the physio who is pleased I am starting to use my walking stick although I don't take it out everywhere yet. It sits in my car.... So, yes, still going swimming and also got into the gym. Am so pleased with how things are going health wise. I think it must all be helping my mobility and I certainly feel great at the sense of achievement. Dd is loving going swimming too. We are going next tomorrow after school.

    Meanwhile , have sorted out my balance transfers with the Asda card. My goal is to pay the debt off faster! Dd has her new bike which is great and everything else is more or less on track. I completed the "Assessment form" for Adult Social Care re the amendments put forward for the bathroom. Very involved, they want so much information and this isn't the actual application form, only the assessment form to establish if an application form is worthwhile!!! I do find it nervewracking giving someone more info than I had to provide for my mortgage re my finances but its done now, and I just have to wait and see!

    Kleeneze is also going fantastically well. Am set to achieve a higher bonus , sales are going extremely well and a customer has invited me and dd to attend a fete in aid of the local scout group in a couple of weeks at which I plan to display some products and promote the business as an earning opportunity. Dd is going to help me bless her and am hopeful of that helping the business grow... Also have set the foundations to start generating leads , that is others who are looking to earn extra money, offer them info re Kleeneze and then see if its their cup of tea and go from there...

    And with the warmer weather I am feeling very positive. I love the lighter eves and I feel things are really coming together. I am reading a great book again, called Beach Money and am gradually "designing" my life writing about things as I go that I am already happy with and then things I'd like to change or do or improve, writing it as if its happening now in the present. Then in addition I am also reading a book about positive feelings and thoughts and so I am really working on being positive and feeling positive and happy ...

    Yes, other than the family situation, all is on track and going as well as it can be ..Am feeling in a good place. Will be on here more regularly again!!!!
