This Time I'm Really Going To Do It

Watty1

Declutted old pair secateurs 20/365 and some rubbish from garden/horse storage shed 21/365. Still have some way to go.

Made fruit puree from frozen berries and left on stove a bit too long whilst distracted. Looks like a murder took place in kitchen. Will freeze any that is stuck to bottom of pan for flavoring plain yoghurt for puds.

Sounds like a gorgeous ride Watty, just as it should be! Do you ever hack alone? I only ask because the horse I shared for a while was an angel with his one mate but a bouncy ball on his own. He sounds like he's been brilliant on his own at shows so that will help his confidence.

Goodnes that was brave. The thought of riding over motorway bridges TERRIFIES me.

Excellent decluttering Watty and glad you had a lovely ride!

Re: the gardening. I noticed you use freecycle, it might be worth putting up a virtual notice in your "local" Freecycle / Freegle thread asking about gardening services in the local area ... Freecyclers usually know the best well-priced trades-folk or you might get a response from a fit student or two! x

Great idea. Thanks Hbbb. Will try that.

Floppy, I used to hack alone before "melt down moment" but havent since. It is something I will get back to at some point. For now I am just working on building our confidence together and think slowly slowly is best approach.

I know he will be great on his own, he is after all fabulous at shows. Its just me - but - I'm focusing on how far I have come since my low points.

A beauty product that actually does what it says on the package! :j Was sent a very odd looking sponge thing to test for my product review in magazine and with some trepidation I gave it a go. Immediately my skin looked better - and - have used it for 3 days and I love it.

Wont be buying it though when this one runs out. Still have a cupboard full of 'product' that I am using up in MSE/decluttering style.

Updated signature. Is it sad to say I just love doing this ? So exciting to see figure fall. Soon won't be able to overpay anymore without penalty so will then switch to building the savings pot.

Wow what amazing progress! Not long now!
Congrats on the mway bridge!
At my old yard we used to have to hack under one, over one, under a railway bridge and over a railway crossing - was very scary when the barriers / lights started going when you were halfway across! Didn't get used to it in the 3 years I was there (horse didn't care mind!)
