The '101 days to change our lives' challenge

nomadgirl

SWISHSTER YOU HAVE REALLY STARTED SOMETHING HERE!
In the next three months I will
- cut out impulse spending
- reduce the number of times per week I have coffee at my favourite place
- stop buying ready meals and realise that I have the time to make a tasty, healthy meal each day (I'm retired and live alone...and love it!)
- work at my current ambition, which is to become a wise old bird!

- be grateful to all the great members of these chat forums who give so generously of their time and knowledge .

Hi everyone

Ess-six - I've done quite a lot of genealogy, if you want to check anything out with me, you're welcome. I'm rubbish at death duties, can't get my head round them at all, but I have a clue on most other things (even if its "use the catalogue and do what the staff tell you"!).

Thanks Karmacat - I'm sure I will need some help when I get started!:T

Well, this is my first 'proper' day at this challenge, and I woke up raring to go! Have already listed everything in my food cupboards, fridge and freezer ready to start my menu planning this afternoon.

Have a great day on the challenge folks!

Hi all
This is my first time...

I'd like to join the 101 days and see if I can actually stick to something for that long!

1. Would like to tone up.
Try to get to gym at least twice a week & 1 Body Conditioning class a week.

2. Pay off some bills.
Get another part time job. (work p/t already). Have updated CV. Apply for jobs online, paper, everywhere I can.

3. De-clutter house, again.

4. Re-decorate mine & DD's room.

5. Stop smoking, again.

That's all for now

Good luck everyone
