Hi Taxi.

Yes I did have a fabby day yesterday!!:)

DH and I did not go to lunch as planned instead we all went to Pizza Hut in the evening instead. The boys do know how to behave when out so it was really nice for us all to sit down to a meal together without the usual squabbling and chants of "barbie girl" etc:rotfl:.

I had a glass of wine there and 1or 3 when I got home so feeling a bit heady this morning:( Also the combination of garlic & wine means that my mouth tastes like something as died in it:o . I am just about to have some green tea with mint ( freebie) to try and cleanse my palate;).

Have a good day all.:)

Palate now cleansed:p Not sure about the tea though;)

As far as goal setting goes ..... I am going to buy myself a big notebook and carry around with me for the next week or so , everytime I have an idea I will make a note of it. Also every time something annoys me I will also note it down as this may also be something I need to change.Ie the state of my house:o

Now got to go to work .

Have a good day everyone.

Glad you had a nice day yesterday.
The note book is a great idea.
Hope you've had a good day at work.

I like the notebook idea. I have these fleeting positive ideas that roll around in my head and aren't given the chance to get any further than that.

As far as goal setting goes ... I should be good at it ... I trained to be a life coach a few years ago so why is my life in such a mess:o

I am also an accountant..... and my finances are..... pants:o

It's the old "Physician, heal thyself" adage.
But it's also said, what you focus on comes true - so maybe the notebook is the start of something and a step in the right direction

I'd like to be a life coach but I think I'd need to get my affairs in order first....

Did you get yourself a notebook?

Good luck with the goals. I AM 9st but think I would like to be 8.5! Mind you, am only 5ft 2. We're never happy are we? Am not going to diet as such but just cut out some carbs. Just had big walk with puppy so that's some exercise at least.

Have a good week
