    :hello: just wanted to say hi and don't be so hard on yourself jo!

    I'd advise cutting corners whenever possible and prioritising.

    I cleaned my sink yesterday, basically a bit of washing powder and boiling water then left it to clean itself! Prioritise the jobs that will make a big difference (like planning for a calm start to the day) but don't beat yourself up over hand-made Christmas gifts.

    See you later.

    Manan, thanks for the advice, makes lots of sense! I would like a calm start to the day so I think you are right, I just need to prioritise and be more organised. Still need to get a diary or calender as EH suggested, I do like writing lists so maybe need a notebook too! Thanks for visiting my abode, please call again soon, cant promise HM cakes, but will definitely have shop bought ones!

    DC, hiya love! Yeah still looking for a new job though now im back at school I dont really want to leave. The kids are so great and the works easy. Only problem is the dire money! Are you still looking?

    HB, I was just, you know, erm, having a laugh? You didnt believe what I said did you? Oh I do love to jest!! :)

    Was going to do sink but dont think im going to move off sofa, coming down with something methinks, aching and headache, swollen glands. So not DFW I know but getting take away and gonna read my book.

    Hope everyones well x
