    Well my biggest achievement today is not hiding under the duvet. I returned my daughter's library books. I cooked dinner with my daughter.
    My veins were playing ball when I went for a blood test.
    All and all not a bad day.
    Take care.

  • Hello everyone.

    Fairyclicks I like the way you break down each tasks.

    Today I cooked a healthy meal. This week I plan to tackle my piles of clothes and get rid of the ones no longer used.

    Nice to see you guys posting :) even just you popping in to say hello keeps me motivated to keep going on here so thanks for that :)

    Today i went to a car boot sale which really tires me out cos of the stress involved in it for me so i tend not to do much else tbh. Only cos its bugging me so much though i am going to try and put another 10 items away from the clothes pile - i will get there eventually :D

    I would also like to do some more knitting - finished the brown ruffle scarf while at the bootie, and need to get a pink lace one done for tuesday so will make a start on that one me thinks!

    Maybe i will get a mad rush of energy from somewhere but if not i'll be happy with these little bits :)

    Things coming into my head for doing tomorrow so gonna start my list:

    Pay £100 off mortgage arrears
    collect tables - done :)
    collect stuff from potts - done :)
    finish pink scarf - done :)
    book mot
    order tyres
    finish making charms - done :)
    sort box of cards
    collect tablets - done :)

  • Hello, sorry for not posting for a while, i was lucky enough to have had a small holiday that I didn't have to pay for. Perks of the boyf being a shareholder in his family company that do rather well for themselves. I wss reading everyones posts through my email though. Always love to hear what everyone is up to.

    Fairyclicks you are making good progress with your list, I haven't called my mobile companies yet, have you? I'm really struggling with this one. Plus it gets worse the more I put it off, I don't even owe money or anything, I just don't like to be awkward and with vodafone raising their prices awkward is what I am going to have to be... sighhhhhhhh :(
    I am going to tackle my clothes pile though too, just a few things away at a time like you do, its funny how tasks sometimes overwhelm us isn't it? I keep getting annoyed because they are so simple but I just get so bogged down doing them. It must be the way my mind works..
    Well my biggest achievement today is not hiding under the duvet. I returned my daughter's library books. I cooked dinner with my daughter.
    My veins were playing ball when I went for a blood test.
    All and all not a bad day.
    Take care.

    Sounds like a good day Rachel, you got some good tasks done.
    After my lovely holiday it was back to the real world and I have got a few bits done, so here they are:
    Washed and dried sofa covers and put them back on sofa (so satisfying to have done this)
    Picked up parcels from post office
    Posted all the ebay items that ended on Sunday
    Posted on this thread!! :-)

    Things that I will do before bed:
    email the gym about arranging a meeting (pay dispute, sad times :()
    wash up 10 items
    put away 10 items from my clothes pile
    post on the make £10 a day thread :-)

    That is all. goodnight, see you soon
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D
