    This is good news indeed! Fancy, the Matrix Mamas on the telly?

    On a more serious note it seems that the Universe is really taking notes - this is a wonderful opportunity to increase the visibility of the Matrix and of course our capacity to do good (for each other and for causes that otherwise fall between the cracks of political expedience).

    Hey Memory Girl, that's fantastic news, just wanted to add that I was thinking of you on your first day off benefits.:j

    I remember my first day, I had a student grant and loan and I went out and bought my beautiful little girl (now 18) a whole set of new clothes, from top to toe...it was a nice feeling.

    The universe has been very kind, I have been looking for a particular ring for ages, I know, I know, how shallow of me :D ...but yesterday I found a ring that was better than what I had been looking for for £20. I've already had lots of compliments...every time I look at its sparkle, I think, BE GRATEFUL.;)

    I also managed to reclaim over £70 in expenses which I was going to write off but an opportunity ;):D presented itself today and I got the money back.

    I also have some flip chart paper in order to set my 30 day challenge up.


    I'm also going to spread the word at work re the football gear, positivity is infectious right, well I'm going to burst through their doors with my 10,0000 smiles sales pitch.:)

    Glad you had a good day MG and brilliant news about the tv - it is amazing what this thread can do - although I am curious does everyone have the own matrix number (something Oliveoyl mentioned but I may have got it wrong)?

    I'm a bit braindead at the moment - but if I think of any ways you can achieve your targets I shall be back.

    A 100 day challenge.....maybe because I was playing catchup, and only started reading the thread after Mr Big came along, it hadn't quite sunk in that *all* of us are on our own 100 day challenges. I did time the 30 day challenge on the blog, and that ends a week on Saturday. So I'll take the starting point of that 30 days as the starting point of my own `100 day challenge....

    Mine isn't back to work, as such. As I said a couple of days ago when I asked for the green feedback, its about setting up a second income stream, as the first has declined and I need to up my pension contributions, which are currently laughable. Though the first 30 day target was to institute a spiritual practice - which will help me be *able* to run two/three income streams, I think!

    So my 100 day goal:
    - make this house (I moved in August) liveable - building work finished, new flooring down.
    - spiritual practice incorporated into everyday life.
    - new office set up to run trading business - the second income stream.
    - draft layout of green website complete - the third income stream.

    Ha! I didn't know I had it in me :rotfl:Thanks, MG!:beer:

    I know I'm not actually part of your matrix but I've put the word out about football shirts at the school I work in and OH knows lots of people who play so he's spreading the word there too. I have no idea how to get them to you though!

    Like double wham, bam WOW, Mg that is major, must admit it had been running through my mind that it would make a great positivity story.
    I said a couple of posts back, you should copyright the Matrix (was joking) but this kind of thing snowballs and everybody will want a piece of the action which is great.
    Its the anonymity that helps make it so successful, a sense of belonging and achieving, positivity and the sheer exhuberance which rubs off on all who join in here.
    I cannot believe the impact it has had on my life already.
    It was this thread that gave me the courage to walk out on the job that drained me, (was a lurker then though). And the positivity to go and find another job just till I know what I really want to go.
    There are so many like-minded spirits here that one cannot help getting caught up in the rush. The Universe has great plans for us all I think, we just have to ask and find our way forward.
    Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it. xX
    I dont have a matrix number though.

    MG - I didn't receive an email from you with the poster attached. Was I supposed to? I don't have a matrix number either :o

    **thinks** of course, you may be right in your thought that we should have those things .... I'm very liable to just forging ahead on a wing and a prayer :)
