  • I have been faffing !!! All day. Done stuff, like the domestic duties, dog walking etc etc but also managed to waste an hour on FB. And it is a wasted hour. If I'm going to have some chill out time I don't want to waste it on FB, what is it about that site ?

    Well someone might get out of bed, have a hangover, you know important stuff.

    or you have to beatyour high score on one of those games! :rotfl:

  • Morning
    Tired. Mad dog had me up at 3.30 for a toilet request, (he just cant quite lift the seat up).

    No seriously once you are remotely awake at that time you know quality asleep is pretty much gone. Had to be up at 5.30 to be DS1's chauffeur.

    Think I'll just take Monday as it comes.

    Hello, hope Monday "happened" ok for you. Dont believe this, just sat on the sofa and a great big daddy long legs ran over my feet!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree with Holmes. the elimination list would be a really good way to improve the lives of many. Remember I wrote about my Perfect Day on my thread a week or two ago. I felt quite smug when he set that as homework, does that sound bad? No seriously, I think that whatever works for you should be the challenge, little chunks, or all of it. You will be able to choose.

    Now Facebook, I think that should be on my elimination list. I get so fed up of some of the posts and I have decided to declutter some "friends" as i HATE "have you found my rabbit" posts. :rotfl::rotfl: If only life were as easy as pushing the remove button.
