Lost in the middle - getting organised and debt free

Well done on the weight loss and the CBT (I'm doing the MoodGYM which my Doctor recommended to help with the depression caused by my chronic pain)

I know I said that I didn't find the councelling helpful. Basically that was because it was the wrong person. However I can't help but thinking that I need somebody to help me. Unfortunately my BF can't even he has read all the books I have pushed to him.

I have been thinking that if I could find a mentor or a guru, someone that would also help me with my physical well being it might help. I have been looking to yoga teachers. But then I found this lady (I think I have mentined her before) who does acupuncture and QiGong. I haven't contacted her but I think I will. I have also looked into Buddhist meditation but they are on Wednesday evenings so I can't go. I will keep looking to see if they have anything going on on Saturdays when DD is with her dad. I think that belonging to a spritual accepting group of people might help me as this is little bit too much hard work on my own. And no, despite being Christian (as of brought up as) I really don't want to go there. No offence to everybody who is but it is just not for me.

Eta: I just downloaded three books called Modern Buddhism (vol 1-3) to my kindle 0.86 each. Bargain. Please let me find what I am looking for.

Hey you, sorry not been about much, yay to telling your ex you won't be pushed about, yay to weightloss and a holiday soon, if it were me I'd check your results after the holiday unless it bothers you too much.

Look after yourself

Marru

No need to be sorry. It took me over a month to realise that you have started a new thread

Veeeryyyyy baaaaad tonight!!! Tomorrow taking DD after school club to climbing with beavers and it will be tight schedule and I need to text ex to ask to call DD earlier. Also tomorrow need to sort out pirate clothes for DD. And I need to get her beaver uniform washed for tomorrow. And all I would like to do is to crawl upstairs to bed.

So washing machine needs to go on, DD to bed, some stitching and telly, hang washing and me bed. BF played house fairy earlier today and nipped in to do some vacuuming and had emptied the dishwasher. Bless him.

I wish someone could just fix me. The more I try the worse I seem to get.

At least tea was nice, minted lamb burgers with mushrooms. Ooooh YUM!!! Not exactly MSE but considering how much I am saving in biscuits and chocolate I think I deserved it.

Good morning.

Even than I am going down with a stinking cold I am feeling better. I haven't got far with reading the stuff that I have downloaded on my Kindle but one thing jumped at me. Attachment. We have suffering because of being too attached. So I am now conciously trying to detach myself from things that upsets me/causes me stress. Small steps and all.

And as it happens couple of years back I did this course called Sedona method. I still have all the discs. It is all about letting go. So I think I was already then on to something. I just didn't keep it up.

Boss not in for two days and I have hardly any work to do (I did tell her yesterday) so I am going to see if I can make any progress with my PER objectives.

Toodlepip...

Marru

Must admit defeat, this cold has really drained me so I have decided not to go in today.

Only plan today is to do one load of washing, run the dishwasher and clean cat litter tray and then the rest of the day is for stitching/sleeping/reading which ever takes my fancy.

Beanie - thank you so much!! I shall defo investigate

All in all a good day here. But then I have been very lazy. Slept until 9 as DD helped herself to crackers to keep hunger at bay until I surfaced to make breakfast. Then I had a hot bath while reading ebay for dummies. Also I realised that I still have two accounts with them, one business and one personal so next week I will investigate which stuff gets sold under which account. At least I know that the bookshop that I am intending to open will go under the business account.

Then took DD to see film Cars 2, it was really good. I think it wasn't quite as easy for kids to follow as the first one but for us adults it was great. DD did say that she enjoyed it, how much she understood is a different matter. We had out tea out and are now back home. Off now to get her to bed so that I can have a stitchy evening

Tomorrow I am actually intending to get something done, there is pile of stuff in my inbox (physical inbox) that need urgently seeing to.

Marru

Feeling more positive today. Even so that I am going to take DD to 1kea. I want to get her a new bed (and chuck the old one out - not very MSE as it still serves ok as a bed but really really fed up with it). And I need somewhere to hang my clothes. I have only one foot long rail to keep my work clothes on and everything else is still in the bin bags after the move.

I have continued reading fleabay for dummies and I am getting very inspired. So today my aims are (if there is any energy left after the shoping trip) to finally upgrade the windows and MSO on this computer and then download turbolister. Tomorrow on my lunch break I will print the fleabay fee info so that I can built that info into a spreadsheet.
