    Don't beat yourself up over what you haven't achieved. It wasn't your fault. Hope your ankle is getting better and I'm sure you'll get back into the swing of things once it is. We all need a break now and then (oops no pun intended :) ) just concentrate on getting yourself better x

    I am fine , thank you for asking. Still wearing "the Boot" but hope to stop wearing it next week . I have now had it for 6 weeks so am now mighty fed up:o.

    I have not really been on here much lately as have been wearing my "gloomy pants" now its time to swap them for my "get over yourself pants":)

    Finances have NOT been going well as earnings have been down due to ankle :(.

    Yesterday my post contained the following :

    £150.00 Late filing penalty from Companies house
    £127.00 Council Tax reminder ( to be paid within 7 days)
    £104.00 BT reminder
    £250 reminder for school trip in September:eek:

    So as you can see I have been letting things slip so need to refocus :)

    I WILL catch up with you all very soon


    Much love

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!
