    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    I would have bought underwear, shoes and a new dress. :rotfl:

    I'm tired now - need to go back and retrieve my list and see how I'm doing. :o

    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.

    I'm amazed I didn't head straight for the crisps, that's my usual downfall!
