    Hello Hypno, hope things are ok with you. Just spending a few minutes catching up on here before venturing into the dark recesses of the kitchen, which needs a damn good clean and tidy up! I just console myself with the fact that those posh show houses you see on telly with the sparkling clean kitchens don't have real people living in them. People who dump their stuff on every available surface. People who, when you have just finished scrubbing everything and it looks pristine, annouce they are hungry and want feeding. A cat who strolls in and out shedding ginger fur and putting his muddy paw prints everywhere. Better get off this soapbox again before I take root..... have a good afternoon doing your taxi runs!

    2nd batch of running about done - incorporating a trip to the clothes bank to dispose of a bag of stuff......so a weeny bit of decluttering done. Another load in the machine, clean sheets on my bed, and another £15.29 profit from matched bets made.

    I still need to submit the mystery shop online, and assess the state of my cabin to see what needs throwing/sorting/filing, plus a bet to place later this afternoon and the ironing pile to tackle. I've not yet done any housework such as dishwasher, hoovering, cleaning surfaces either, yet I feel as though I have been up and down like a yo yo all day!

    Coffee next, and input the mystery shop I think. Then the kitchen, I reckon because I can listen to the football as I clean.....

    Hello Hypno and fellow folks

    reading this thread (whilst at work and procrastinating) am feeling so inspired by human nature and the family that has built up on this site. people can be so supportive and welcoming I really get a look out of reading this thread and just wanted to say continue doing what you are doing. somehow you are getting up each day and working out what you need to do and you just do it. as you mention you have you low times but you just dust them down and plough through. very encouraging you are a credit to your family

    Thanks misselvis. You are quite right - the "family" on this site is nothing short of amazing. I am not sure where I would be without the support I get here.

    You would be doing any of the following...more matched betting, more housework, more productive real-life stuff, more exercise, more socialising, and/or more hollistic work.

    But let's face it: none of it would be half as much fun! :D

    But that's just it, I don't think I would be doing more of anything - I wouldn't be encouraged like I am from this site. I wouldn't be focused.

    I think I would just be a bit lost. And probably sitting in the nuthouse with Sally!
