    1 step - I like what you're saying about the New Year's resolutions. I think I'm in a similar place.

    Happy New Year everyone :j:j:j:j

    I've done very little this last few days but plan to seriously sort myself and house out this year..:D Managed to run out of oil so i'll need to find the money for that very quickly...:doh:I also plan on ebaying 10 items a week starting from this week. I have loads of things running round my head so i think i'll go write them down in my book.......:D

    See you all over on the new thread..
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    :wave:Serena, good to see you posting

    Happy New Year everyone, but especially Toots

    Lots of washing done, some more bulk cooking and half an hour outside cleaning the hens run and collecting the firewood logs from the lawn (pesty Lu Tze dog :mad:)

    Thanks for your messages of support/encouragement.

    I will have a think of how to word my message to him, I don't want to make it too obvious in case I ruin our friendship.

    Maybe fate will give me a helping hand!

    LW - I thought you were supposed to be cutting down on CAMRA paperwork after they took advantage of you and concentrating doing nice stuff for you and MrLW. Think of all those books you could have been reading...
    I am going to - I'm resigning from all CAMRA work as of the AGM on January 30th, and will just be a normal, non-active member; and they have been forewarned of this.;) I have to still do it til then, though.:(

    Evening,

    Had a nice day at Mums. Knackered now and feel sick -too much food again-when will I learn?

    Deco - Life is not a rehearsal. Go for it.

    Toots - Happy New Year

    I need to cook soon (yes I feel sick but DH is hungry) I really want to iron too. Well that's a lie, I don't, but I am not leaving work stuff until this time tomorrow.
    Need to be more organised. I've done this before, and am going to start again - every time I walk in a room, put 3 things away or chuck them. Little and often.

    See you on the new thread
    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'

    1 step - I'm not organised, I'm procrastinating. My tax return hasn't been touched :o)

    So don't put it off too much longer - a friendly nag to get it done! And anyone else ignoring their tax returns.

    OK, I am converted - very sharp knives, new pans and silicon utensils make for a very happy Moam, best roast dinner I've cooked & served for ages.

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
