    Elfen - is it ok if I post the book next Saturday? I'm still in my jim jams and have had a snooze on the sofa.

    5 things I love doing.

    - Cuddles on the sofa with OH whilst watching a film.
    - Baking and seeing people enjoy my creations.
    - Watching the sunset.
    - My cross stitch, I love seeing the picture grow.
    - My family. Sometimes I want to kill them but deep down I know they've got my best interests at heart.


    All I've eaten today is a big bowl of porridge. I don't feel hungry at all. :(

    Some lovely things to do on your lists and I would love to work through the "simplify your life" section of the site it starts off by asking you to think of the 4-5 most important things that you want to do/value most.....

    http://zenhabits.net/simple-living-manifesto-72-ideas-to-simplify-your-life/
    1. Make a list of your top 4-5 important things. What’s most important to you? What do you value most? What 4-5 things do you most want to do in your life? Simplifying starts with these priorities, as you are trying to make room in your life so you have more time for these things.
    Here are my first thoughts after a lot of thought:rotfl:
    1. Spend time with my family
    2. Spend time with my friends
    3. Be financialy secure without having to work my !!! off till I am 65
    4. Travel the world
    5. Be fit and as healthy as possible
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
