urg’s Happy, Healthy and Wealthy 2011 Diary

Not been on for a while. I've been up and down and don't want to make this a depressive post but I think it might be!
I am still shattered; have been spending money on stuff - mainly make up:eek:; the weight is going on; I am not exercising at all etc etc.
I need to get back into control in so many ways. Reading so many positive posts is helping but I really need to take my own action to get back in the game.
I was working late tonight - I was on a bit of a roll so wanted to get things done. As I left work and waited for a bus (should've walked to the station) I saw an awful accident at the crossing near work - a student got hit by a car. I hope that he will be okay - I went to get help but there was not much I could do and I didn't want to stop and stare.
Right - will stop being so down and head off to bed. I think a good night's sleep is desparately needed!
Hope all is well with you all - I can see so many of you making progress and it really lovely to see.

Sorry to hear you are feeling down urg, I find this nice weather doesn't help. When it's nice I feel nice and bright and breezy then get down about being in work. When it's not so nice it can get you down. Horrible about the accident, not a nice thing to see.0

Morning all,
I am so sick of waking up tired. I have absolutely no energy! I got some news from the nurse yesterday - I do have a vitamin deficiency but need to wait for the GP to decide what happens next - unfortunately he is on holiday next week grrrrrrr!
Today DH and I need to go and try find some Lino for the kitchen floor. That will then be the kitchen finished. We've also got to do a food shop because the cupboards are rather bare! I have voucher that i can use if we soend a certain amount!
I am also going to try to -
- list a few things on eBay (free listing weekend)
- put on a load or two washing
- clean bathroom
- ironing
- call a couple of friends to say hi
- finish a couple of things for work.
Lots to do - hoPe you are all okay and have a fab weekend.

Morning
I've been awake for a while but am only just contemplating getting up! it's getting quite hot at night - I think we'll have to change the diver today!
Yesterday was not a bad day - I managed to do the shopping, a load of washing and had a great rime at my shift in my voluntary job.
Today we'll be visitng my dad so I think I will make a pasta bake to save us having to get take away food. Lots of housework to do but I seem to have a bit more energy today so hope I will get some of it done.
I have also started to read The Secret - have read so much about t on here that I thought I'd give it a go. Interesting ...
Right - will get up now and jump in the shower. The rest of the morning will be housework and a bit of time on the computer if I can to load a few items on eBay as it is a free listing weekend.
Hope you all have good days

Evening
Not a bad day today. I even managed to get an item listed on eBay. Something that has needed to go for ages! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get anything else on as the website is playing up. I'm still pleased with myself as it is one of those things I keep putting off.
I managed to get a fair amount of ironing done this morning so the pile isn't falling over anymore. I will be aiming to get to the bottom of the pile by the end of the week. I also spoke to one of my best friends who lives overseas - it's her birthday today and it was lovely to have a chat with her. Unfortunately another friend is in hospital - not sure what is wrong but she hopes to be out tomorrow.
Need to get to work early tomorrow so am going to try and get an early night. I will get my things ready for tomorrow; treat myself to facemask and read a little more of my book.
Money news - I haven't spent a huge amount this weekend - DH kindly paid for our grocery shopping which means that there is a little more to play with this month. I have set aside some spending money for our trip at the end of the month to celebrate our first anniversary. I am looking forward to getting away.
Hope the week goes well for you all.

Sorry to hear about the vitamin deficiency..hope that gets sorted soon.
you've been very busy...don't wear yourself out too much..can't believe it's nearly a year already as it doesn't seem that long ago.0 -
Oops - 10 day later!
Life feels very busy at the moment. Am still very tired and need more blood tests.
I had my First probationary meeting today and that went well - was quite nervous but manager gave me really strong feedback plus some things to work on. Work has been really busy and have been working late quite a lot recently.
A number of family illnesses/ ops etc going on right now so we really need to be there for family.
Money stuff is not going too well - I've lost my focus - there's just too much going on.
Not sure I'll get an relaxing time over the next few days as I need to get the flat back into shape and hospital visits.
At least I have bank holiday weekend to look forward to - DH and I are going away for our anniversary! Can't wait!
Hope you are all ok!
