    Sounds like you had the perfect Bank Holiday!

    I've just discovered that the Egg I demolished yesterday had a total calorific value of 1755 calories. And I don't feel a shred of guilt!

    I agree with Hypno, You are still strong. You just need to remind yourself more often. Glad things are lighter and brighter - now go and drink your water ;)

    Hi Polly, well done on starting the cleaning/decluttering. What bit are you going to do next? Is there a small bit that you can easily tackle? x

    (Oh, and do you ever notice children looking guilty after scoffing their Easter Eggs? No, see cos its the rules: Easter = Chocolate!). Back to the healthy stuff next week though.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x

    Hi Polly, hope you made it to work ok. I expect everyone over did it during the hols so don't beat yourself up about it.

    I actually wanted to get back into the routine of work today (but when I got there I wish I hadn't bothered)!

    Want to share my ironing pile? Don't think DS has realised yet but he's going to have to search for a pair of trousers tomorrow - I may even be able to get him to put his own clothes away :eek: Pen x

    (Oh I can just squeeze into my 14 trousers but the tops!!! No way - thank heavens for charity shops or it would be birthday suit for me!)

    We're cleaning and decluttering too.....it will all be worth it in the end!

  • Morning all.

    Been absolutely shattered again this week and spent yesterday in a bit of a daze, but I'm feeling better this morning so I'm going to make the most of it.

    Today I will

    defrost and clean the fridgefreezer
    clean out the rest of the kitchen cupboards
    ironing
    stuff for work
    some decluttering

    My freezer and cupbards are completely empty as I didn't get round to doing any proper shopping over Easter and now I don't have any money until payday. On a positive note, they're easier to clean when they're empty :D Plus Tesco have sent me a code for delivery so I can stock up on payday next week, so I feel as if the universe is telling me it's time to get on with it :rotfl:

    Still, slowly, decluttering - some of it's boring and some is emotional, but I am determined to have it finished by the end of July, so that I can start to move forward.

    Ironing and work - I need to be moving forward on this too; constantly trying to catch up is stressing me out.

    Have a good day.

    Polly
  • Hi Polly
    My ironing pile seriously got out of control over the last couple of weeks so you have my sympathies. Some scary American reality TV got me through it (Wife Swap.)

    Decluttering, yep emotional, and me being the most indecisive person on the planet I find it incredibly hard sometimes. But I have adopted a ruthless streak and put my head down and made a few quid on ebay too.

    Something about a clean fridge freezer, I mean if the camera crew for MTV Cribs visited I would happy to let them see inside my fridge freezer...nowhere else mind ..
    Have a good day.

    Wish I could say the same, DC, but I think mine's actually a health hazard :eek:

    Right, ironing first (and then I can have another sit down with a cup of tea).

    My fridge is ok, but my freezer :mad: someone in our house (who I think is a lot younger than me) has managed to spill some brown liquid all inside the door and its frozen. I've tried to gently prise it off but no luck, looks like I am going to have to defrost the lot!

    Hope you had a nice day Polly (despite the ironing!) x
