I think I need to tailor my list more towards who I actually am. I put things down like 'go swimming before work' and get to work before 8am once a week.
When I am the least morning person you know....I find it almost impossible to get out of bed in the morning.....:o and so any early morning plans of jogs, swimming etc are never going to happen!I've got my own flat :j:j
Now I have to pay the bills :eek:
And feed my interiors addiction

Hi Miss Lauren and welcome! :j Sounds like you fit in very well indeed!
This week is proving soooo expensive and I don't get paid til Friday and for the first time in ages am in my overdraft. I know that doesn't sound bad but considering what I have left after my bills etc it is really bad.
Have been out plotting with a friend for a massive holiday later in the year. I don't think I can quite confess on here yet as would involve a fair amount of spends but also being healthy for the next 10 months :eek:
I have so much I want to do next year that I don't know if I can manage it all! It is like I want to be a different person..... one with an amazing flat with lovely furniture who is super-organised godess type with no unfinished projects and proper hobbies that she does regularly and who also goes on fabulously amazing holidays......
What I want to know is how come we all want to be this amazingly organised hobbying completing, nail varnish (non chipped) wearing, fit, swimming before 8am type people?(feel free to add own aspirations)
Make Up when you said its like I want to be a different person I completely understood what you meant, its not that I don't like me but it as though I feelI am "not working properly" or not functioning the right way, I do feel like I am not good enough? but oh I can't explain. too tired.
was mostly popping on to say I have been reading my old diaries and my life has been sort of stuck for a while. I do know why but I also know that must change.
and I knew you guys would be on my wavelength
Hugs all round xxxxxNevertheless she persisted.0 -
Ooooh the multiquote worked! :j Go techie capable me!Ooo sympathy... just finished my homework (only due in tomorrow so plenty of time to spare :rolleyes:)I'm meant to be doing my dissertation so am well up for spending the next 30mins to an hour cooking

Phew... thanks guys you have made me feel a bit less guilty about the revision for Thursday exam which I haven't been doing... or ironing an outfit for tomorrow's important meeting... :eek:Buffythedebtslayer wrote: »What I want to know is how come we all want to be this amazingly organised hobbying completing, nail varnish (non chipped) wearing, fit, swimming before 8am type people?(feel free to add own aspirations)
hi Buffy, I've been reading my previous years goal lists and they are very much like that - must get top grades, take up martial arts, always eat breakfast etc. The odd things are that I haven't done most of them and the ones that I did get done, didn't make me particularly happy. So this year I am limiting myself to five goals per section of Lula's List, and they all have to be things I can EASILY do and that will make me HAPPY and SAFE, not things that other people would necessarily pick. Me things, not annoyingly perfect person things
. I am giving myself a break - that will be an achievement in itself. Think you should probably do the same petal. :grouphug:
I really have to go and iron clothes now... and if I am on here tomorrow night, send me away to revise! :rotfl:

It can be like that! Even the locals end up a little red faced sometimes
