10 positive steps a day challenge - 2012

Sligo

Hi Steppers!

Lordy! it's a long day today! My head is just not functioning at the moment. Not really stepping - it feels more like a heavy trudge!

Today I have already:

- checked the bank
- done polls & cashback site
- returned sat nav to friend

Today I also hope to:

- get a few items of shopping after work
- bake some brown soda bread made muffins instead
- make a pasta dish dinner for 2moro night (for them cos I'm going out for dinner!!) They're having sausages!!
- Sort & put away dry washing
- Empty washer & put in dryer/hang up for drying
- get stuff ready for DS's school trip - waterproofs by the look of it!

Keep on keeping on Steppers! :j

Evening all
Just sneaking in before the day nearly ends.
Abit of a poo day really, slept in, woke with a start remembering I am the only person with keys, arrived at work 18 minutes later to find everyone waiting for me :eek::eek: I was still early but still not a good start to the day.

Other than working all day and then all evening when I got home I have:
Checked emails
Checked free postcode lottery
Checked bank, updated sheet. not nice viewing :eek:

Friday tomorrow :j

Morning steppers

I missed stepping yesterday because......wait for it.......i went to the first day of a business course :j:j:j

I was soooooooooooooo anxious and tbh it was hard going. This will make you laugh though - i took my knitting with me and i spent the whole day knitting :rotfl::rotfl: I have found it is something i can do to help me focus on other things when i am struggling to keep my head from wondering into the whole chatterbox nonsense that tortures me in these situations. So what can i say? i went and i (just about) managed to sit there all day. So thats day 1 done out of 6!!

Today then i would like to:

Try and finish at least one ball of wool for my current project - its a baby blanket, or at least i'm hoping thats what its going to be

Do a few more pages of DLA form

Sort ebay sales

Check bank account

Update 'business' accounts.

Superpoints

Swagbucks - start 591 - finish

Sort a box to remove from craft room

Will be delighted if i get through that lot

Hope you all have a loverly Friday xxx

Thanks for all your lovely comments guys I'm hoping it gets a bit easier to go each week - at the minute i sort of feel like i just have to hold my nose to take the medicine if you know what i mean :rotfl:

Yesterday i managed to knit the ball of wool but i'm not happy with it so i think i'm going to be having a ripping time today :rotfl:

I didn't do anything else off my list but i did:

Sort out some of my beads and things
Tidy the living room
Do a wash
Sort a link tab on facebook page which hasn't been working for ages

Today is going to be a rollie day then!

Happy Saturday!!
I agree TM6 i think the weather has a massive impact on our moods.

I feel lousy today but am sure it is just because I have worked so many hours this week and so many late nights and OH has passed his cold onto me. Have been lazing on the couch all morning but have so much to do so writing my list the going to get cracking!! No time for moping today.....

Sort through all my holiday clothes
Pack all cases and see how much they weigh – do I need 2 hand luggage cases Yes i do
Return cases toMr A they are too big for hand luggage!
Find new cases – take tape measure!!
Go to shopping centre to get what last minute bits we need
Buy shampoo & conditioner
Buy toilet roll from Mr A
Buy suncream from Mr A
Email sister all dates and places for show and tell her when I can pay

Right, better get started then.......
