Welcome Back princess - sorry you've had a rubbish time hon x

Well I had my shoulder thing on monday - was done by the consultant and he was rubbish! Put in far too much anestetic so by the evening the shoulder was making me cry but my right forearm was completely numb! Anyway - feeling a bit more human today, so back to stepping!

This weekend I want to:

• Wash Up
• Wipe Sides and Clean Hob
• Hubs Shirts for the week
• Pasta Bake for hubs nights
• Upload new stock
• Visit MIL
• Send Birthday Ideas for Xan to MIL
• Cut back bush on the driveway
• Upload shop and scan
• Do some exercise
• Post J Birthday card
• Parcel and post Ebay

Wouldn't you want to do this in the privacy of your bathroom :eek: or are you an extreme extrovert :rotfl:

TM - Thanks for that, am now crying wth laughter!! Silly mare - teach me not to read back before posting - although could be a plan to clear some debt :rotfl:

Managed to drag my lazy bum to the gym this morning to get a bt of mobility in my arm, bit achy now but feeling good for going! Tried on my dress for my cow SIL wedding in 6 weeks and still have about 20cms to go on the zip!! Poxy insulin seems to have killed my weight loss - any motivation would be greatfully recieved!!

Thanks TM and Xandersmum, reli back on her feet more or less now.

Xandersmum - well done on going to the gym, hope it has a positive effect on the shoulder. It must drive you mental being in so much pain.

Well today has been a pretty busy day or far. Have managed to:
Have lovely brekkie in town
Buy dongle that i have been porcrastinating about for weeks
Bought new housephone as ours seems to have gone dodgy
Bought flowers for me and friend
3 loads of washing and now line drying
Took friends car to be cleaned and dropped it back off

Hhhmmm, it mainly involves spending :eek::rotfl:

So for the rest of the day I would like to achieve:

Hoover all upstairs
Put fresh bedding on both rooms
20 mins cleaning in junk room - its a tip :eek: - Nope ran out of time
Find counterpart driving licence
List 5 things on ebay - minimum
Complete all feedback on Ebay
30 minutes of work - Nope
20 minutes of ironing as the basket has filled up again!! Its never ending - 45 minutes of ironing and still one bedding set to do!!
Polish and hoover living room
Defrost stew for tea
Tidy dining room table - AGAIN :eek:
Sort my nails out, they are a mess
Hoover & cleaned dining room floor
Washed up, wiped sides, cleaned floor
Cleared inbox out & completed survey

Didnt think i wanted to do much but looking at that list I better get cracking. I had planned on chilling out but doesnt seem to be much time for that

Hope everyone is having a nice Sunday and enjoying the sun, even though I am only doing the cleaning it still makes me feel better that its sunny

So after my full house clean today, i feel organised and ready to attack the week I have written tomorrows positive steps and things i would like to achieve in the week. I have decided to split things into small manageable sections of time, then hopefully they wont be too daunting and i wont just think oh i cant face that

Good morning Happy Steppers Crew :hello:

I'm with you Princess on this one - I know lots of my steps are mainly chores and boring life tasks but checking them off as I have acheived them makes me feel good - none of my steps are going to set the world on fire but they have REALLY helped me return to near full on mental health :T The steps not only gave me a focus but a purpose too

Now I am building on my health with my steps so I am now excited about going on my jollies at the weekend whereas I would normally be completely stressed out :rotfl:
