    Evening all. Hope everyone has had a good weekend. Have just finished the ironing and now trying to get my 3 kids to bed. The bright evenings are a pain for getting kids to sleep.

    Well I have decided that nothing more is going to go into my head tonight so I shall join you all for a bit:A

    Beanie, did you have a nice time with Luc, Maz and Snaggs?

    Scaredy that article was really interesting, definitely food for thought.

    it does throw up intresting angles on procrastinating, and the fact it reiterates that you shouldn't expect to change overnight.. which i think we do, and we are setting ourselfs up to fail....

    I think I fit right into the *perfectionist* profile. I dont give myself any credit for working towards a goal. To me its either finished or not finished.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
