Memorygirls - The Matrix Reloaded

Could someone please point me towards the frog theory as I seemed to have missed it. Thank you.

DD and BF have gone to make mess in the church so I am watching online lectures while doing my nails

Groatie Queen asked me to give her regards to everyone. She is reading occasionally but tied up with OU stuff at the moment, so very busy, but is thinking of us all.

That's good to know because Morag is lovely and had'nt seen her around for a while.

No theory, mostly practice. There is a book called Eat This Frog by Brian Tracy (KC has found his website as well). What is says is: identify your frog (big thing) and eat it; make sure that you eat the frog first thing and that you eat the ugliest one first.

So this is how we started talking about my frogs - I have been reading the book and trying some of the things.

Very good - and yes it says it all (though in the book there are also exercises about doing that; identifying th frog I mean).

Woohooo!!! Back online - turns out we had a power cu whilst DS1 was at golf this monrng and it reset the router. BUt now I have all the details if it happens again.

Royal visits from Fantasia (and Mr Fantasia) and ClootiesMum.

Very MSE with Mr Fantasia - now got a list of materials needed to make my new room:D

Not very MSE with ClootiesMum - we went to the local furniture charity and got three doors for a built in wardrobe for DS2's new room (inspired by Mr Fantasia) - But £30 all in :eek:

But Clootie did leave me a pile of cool videos to watch - so afer pizza tonight we are gonna make a pile of popcorn...... there goes the buzzer for the pizza

ETA: spends today total £5.16 on the UGC. This includes a packet of strawberry milk powder for DS2 (special treat and the last one has lasted since last summer - so I figure it goes a looooong way.)

Off to update signature

Sounds like you're getting on well MG.

I've made 4 batches of ganache for filling chocolates. Need to think about flavourings tonight (and what colour/shape/decoration I'll use for each flavour) so I can make and fill the chocolates over the next few days.

I've also pretty much completed the tidying upstairs. I'm itching to do the cleaning, but I don't have time to do it properly now and it will end it chaos! Anyway, my spare bed is covered in clothes (it was nice to see some of them... I'd forgotten I had them ), and my wardrobe contains a pinstripe suit, a pair of black trousers I might wear on Tuesday night if I can find a suitable top and shoes (otherwise I'll wear a cling black lace dress) and the shoes I KNOW I wear regularly. Nothing else is going back in the bedroom unless it has been worn and washed, and I'm going to go through the piles regularly to make sure I know what's there. Hopefully I won't have too many people to stay in the immediate future, as they'll have to stay on the sofabed or the airbed in the study!
