Good Afternoon Stepperites
Its so good to read everyones steps and progressI wish i had time to respond to you all but am having to resort to hitting the thanks button instead or i will need another 3 days in every week rather than two :rotfl::eek:
This week has been going well for me - busyness is good for me i think even though my approach might be rather chaotic :rotfl::rotfl:
The website now has 30 registered users and 94 listings :j:j:j for a while there i was thinking it was going to be a personal selling site so i am glad to see it starting to buildI have got leaflets printed and business cards now so (despite the odd typo - that will teach me to vistaprint at 2am!) i am happy its still moving forward!
This week i have finally managed to START getting back on top of my finances as well by making some long delayed payments so i feel like i am starting to add an extra ball to my juggling act. I am glad i took some time out to review my goals in my crazy person blog as it really helped me to see what was going on.
Today i want to try and focus on my spare room - it has been tidied a bit then had boxes and boxes build up again and i can no longer get in there. I really want to empty it and make it a workshop but i have no-where to empty it to really. My plan for today is to move some boxes out into the living room to give me room to manoeuvre and hopefully create a bit more space again! I may be gone some time :rotfl::rotfl:
Good luck with your steppingxxxxxx

Hello Steppers!
Blimey! I'm the first post today! I deserve an Olympic gold medal for that. (Although I feel I'm maybe only keeping the faith till TM6 is back off holiday!!)
I'm noticing a pattern in my steps. Daytime = good! Evening= Bad! I get nothing done in the evenings! I must concentrate my efforts on even getting one step per evening achieved.
Todays steps:
- check bank doneDouble eek! :eek::eek:
- polls and cashback site done
- get money out of atm done
- lunch with colleague who's leaving done
- Put away clean washing
- Put load of washing on
- Hairdresser coming to house this eveningNo more grey!
And tomorrow's Friday! Yippeee!0 -

**sneaks back in **
Another busy week between work and mum being here but mainly because I have been out with my friends and family have a jolly good time :j:j Currently surfacing from a smallish hangover and using it as an excuse to watch the Olympics AGAIN :rotfl: Team GB have made me soooo proud today, herculean efforts in the rowing!!
HUGS to Xandersmum, we all have those days, its all part and parcel of being a woman I reckon
Sligo you are back with a vengeance, its so nice to see everyone posting
Fairy - Youre back :j Good to hear business is good. I too am battling with the spare room. It gets cleaned, then the house gets cleaned and all the junk goes back in the spare room and im right back where i started :eek:
TM6 - Hope you are having a fab holiday xx
Will be back later with a full list of things I want to get sorted this week while I am off but for now I am going to lounge on the sofa watching the olympics0 -
Aw Thanks Guys - Sorry I haven't got back sooner, Picked up a computer virus which took me ages to track and get rid of - Luckily doesn't seem to have done too much damage!
Still feeling a bit blue - think it may be connected to it being Xan's Bday next week and Mum not being here for it, and that I have too much time to think at the mo - That and being a woman!!
This weekend I want to:- Post Parcels
- Chase O2 re number swap
- Load of Washing
- Wash Up
- Wipe Down Sides
- Clean Hob
- Mop Kitchen Floor
- DY Review
- Some form of Exercise
