    Housework update

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    The M&S offer mentioned in Martin's email this week is rather good. The Cotton range has money off and is still part of the 3 for 2 offer. Alas I've been in store to look and they didn't have any, but you can order online and have it delivered for free to the store, so I think I might do that!

    Taken parents to garden centre and had lunch.
    Feel tearful and fed up again. Silly Bookie.
    2 choices - ironing or go to bed. :confused:

    Do the ironing and put on your favourite dvd! :T Preferably one with singing that you can join in with (loudly!!!!)

    Mamma Mia or Grease are perfect.

    No dvd in bedroom - or tv for that matter.

    Could drink myself into oblivion but have no wine. :rotfl:

    Well said Linda! You will probably feel worse for going to bed, so keep going Bookie and have a good sing song!

    Thanks for the tattoo Linda - I need something to help!
