    Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!

    First rough draft is finally finished

    Hurrah!

    I now have enough stuff for a whole big book. I'm really chuffed.

    Now I've got to start all over again and edit it into something readable. Oh the joy! But it will be much easier now - I just need to turn the bullet points and brief notes into chatty paras. It WILL get published in 2010!
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Hi all
    I'd be up for a fitness challenge too - managed to lose half my baby weight (he's 9 months now!). Ideally I'd like to lose another stone to put me in the 10st somethings! I'm also going to start running again - planning a 10k run this year in aid of SANDS.

    Trying to avoid going to WeightWatchers again as I seem to get pregnant every time I go, putting all the weight back on (and more!) :rotfl:. Plus, I avoid diet/reduced calorie food like the plague...heaven only knows what they do to it....

    Haven't managed to do a huge amount of the list today but have done my dailies...

    :D:D:D Just read on Facebook that my "cousin" is going in for a c-section tomorrow morning at 7.30 so I'll have a 3rd little girl cousin by lunch :j:j:j Right, off to find that budget....

    ETA: Can't remember who asked, but my eye is okay. Just a little tender and what looks like a red graze on my lower lid. All okay though.

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Tuesday ~ Living room, Hall and Stairs
    Wipe sticky marks from sofas Will vacuum them.
    Extras
    1. HHI
    2. make a start on those tax forms!! :p
    That's just spurred me on to vac the sofas after the girls are in bed then I can have another star.

    Dorastar....fire brigade will come out and do a fire safety check for free and fit smoke alarms too, also free. Might be worth you doing that to save another argument with the ladder. Added benefit of a couple of lovely firemen popping round too!;):D
