    Madame HL

    I know you have had a really rough couple of days - and the last thing you need right now is "homework", but may I suggest you grab a cuppa and sit down when everything can be calm and quiet to write another letter.

    This one needs to be to yourself - but dated a years hence. In it I would like you to describe with gratitude all the fantastic thought, feelings,people, surroundings, pets,places etc that you now have in your life.

    Why a year? Because we overestimate what we can do in 3 months and underestimate what can happen in a year.

    What we need you to find is a great big magnetic pull into your bright new future - not a running away but a running towards something perfect for you.

    When you are absolutely certain of what you do want - you can be absolutely certain that there will be people to help you get there.

    If you have been reading the thread today you will see that greenbee needed help on finding pictures - we have known for a while that she has been drafting this presentation - but until today she hadn't asked for help, she was very sure of what she wanted and asked very clearly for what she required. That makes it very very easy for us to help her quickly ............ and we will help you quickly as soon as you are certain of what it is that you need.

    Be kind to yourself

    ETA - guess who has spent the day online with the mentors sorting out a "Goals" course for the matrix ladies LOL

    Rather you than me. I hope there is more than one glass.

    I'll wing it & hopefully y'all won't notice my missing of stuff

    Just a few quick bits I picked up on

    Claire - so sorry to hear....don't feel guilty about not getting to him at the end - think of him when he was happy & full of life - that's what he'd probably want

    Hi to Hex, M2M & Kim's Mum (if I've missed anyone - sorry)

    I started reading HL's thread before but have fallen by the wayside with that too - sorry - however you have had your revenge as I had to order the books from Amazon today......

    Bank holiday on Monday :j 12 hours overtime shift on Sun :( but with nice money :j (it'll pay for the Amazon order :p)

    Off to see the other side now.......

    Busy day here - best friend had a much waited for baby girl last night (she has 2 boys and this baby was a surprise to her husband but not to her lol) they are both well and happy:j

    Dh was feeling rough this morning as extreme overtime is now catching up on him, so I got the lounge cleared, cleaned and walls prepped for me, dh and f-i-l to paint. Can't believe what a difference a good lick of paint makes and why we didn't do it last year I don't know.

    I hereby declare an amnesty for all Matrix folk who get behind.

    I do have an ulterior motive as I may need one myself before long. :cool:

    Well done, Willow. It's a lovely feeling when you hit a target. :j:j

    Fantasia : lovely to see you back and posting - you are one strong lady. :T

    OK, so I've missed a whole load of you BUT, I need to go and do the hole for my toad or we will have no supper when Monty Don appears. :rotfl:

    PS Hugs, kicks up the whatever, congrats. Help yourselves.
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?
