    Well, yesterday's plans went mostly by the way as I ended up taking a friend to hospital and staying with her.

    Hope your friend is ok.

    I've been totally rubbish today partly because I've been tired and feeling rubbish, and partly because I just couldn't get myself into gear...means a big long list for tomorrow!

    2) Make a Valentine's card
    3) Wii Fit
    4) Go to youth

    Well everyone's been so busy.

    Thank you for asking about my friend - it was a small procedure and her husband was going to take her but they had a row so she told him she would go on her own then got cold feet.:(

    I'm up late today so will have to move faster:)

    For today:
    the usuals - drink water, snack on veggie sticks, walk, iron and practice typing.
    Excavate fridge and freezer.
    Wash, iron and pack away some out of season clothes.
    Freecycle some items, and if I can find my camera, Ebay some others.
    Shred some of my father's paper mountain.
    Sort some more clothes for charity shop. I like to spread them over different shops so I pack them each a bag.
    Gumtree father's unwanted wall unit.
    Clean house in 15 minute bursts.

    I that should do it for today.
    Aiming to get healthy in 2014.
