  • Hi everyone :j

    I didn't think that anyone had posted for ages, MSE has stopped sending me notifications!! Hope you are all well and not too battered by the storms?

    Sooooo, my positive steps for this week are:

    1. Continue with my 30 day squats & Shred challenge.
    2. Focus on diet, eating less carbs etc.
    3. Keep a close eye on my spending before payday!
    4. Send a few more 'hello' emails to friends, I never seem to get round to them.
    5. Apply for a new job every day.

    Think that's it for now - speak to you all again soon :)
    Finally debt free!! March 2018 :j

  • Hello all. I've had to pause on the positive steps for this week. We had a Very Important Phone Call at school yesterday so yesterday was all about preparing for the inspectors and today and tomorrow are about their visit, I think Friday will be collapsing in a heap!!

  • Good luck Giggles!! Hope you can relax at the weekend!

    What course are you doing hummingbird? I keep thinking about trying another OU course, but I didn't find the time for the last one, so maybe something less ambitious is in order!

  • Yippee! It's half term so I've started it with a good lie in and feel much more refreshed now! I didn't realise how little I must have slept/how exhausted I was until school was finally over and I've been tired all weekend! So today's steps...

    - watch 2 unwatched DVDs while doing other jobs
    - put away clean clothes
    - sort washing and run through 2 loads
    - put away books under bed
    - clear things from side of bed (generally tidy up!)
    - start planning for next week (gets it out of the way!)
    - look at link OH sent me yesterday
    - jigsaw
    - half hour reading
    - make birthday card
    - deliver birthday card
