    Fab day at the races yesterday - and not too spendy as I broke even on my bets with a winner! :j

    And here it is - Monday morning! Where did that appear from so quickly???

    Plans this week are all about getting body and soul ready for my hols on Saturday. Week of healthy eating required and at least 2 (hopefully 3) gym visits. Beautician booked for Thursday night, nails, toes, eyebrows etc. So just need to plan and pack my wardrobe! I am determined not to leave everything to the last minute like I usually do!

    Not looking forward to work today :( I think Friday's nastiness upset me more than I thought but it will have to be head down and power through - with a smile on my face! :p Client meeting in London on Wednesday so that will break the week up - and hols to look forward to! :D

    Nothing com Friday at work but I have made a huge **ck up :o - not sure what the repercussions will be yet :( Not a good work day :mad:

    Have kept on track with food today and have a load of washing in. Need to do some more decluttering too

    Some interesting ideas here - lots of basics but quite a few I need to adopt especially on the domestic front

    Corrie caught up with, 2 drawers decluttered, load of old paperwork sorted - 2 more bags of rubbish out! All documents found and organised for my pension meeting on Friday ;)

    And now I am organising my lunch to take to work tomorrow! Being organised actually feels good!

    Also got my sunglasses adjusted at lunchtime in Boots - and FOC! :D

  • Hugs for the crappy workness, I made a mistake today - luckily so did the other teacher so it didn't look so bad but it was unnerving - really odd not being established and trusted. It will come I guess.

    Take care hon XX
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    :( another day of not wanting to go to work. Oh well, will just have to get through it

    Got up and did my 10 minute abs routine this morning - first time for a couple of weeks! And am determined to get to kettle bells tonight

    Just need to power through the day!

    Work wasn't too bad, but I think there may be more to come :(

    Eating is off the scale :o and haven't been to the gym! Going to give myself a break as I am on holiday next week :j

    Off to London today for a client meeting, might even be time for a little mooch in the shops as it's near Oxford Street! :D

    Good, positive meeting in London - it's good to know I can do something right after the week I've had so far' :o. And managed a sneaky hour in the shops before I had to catch my train! :) Didn't buy anything buts lots of ideas for a bit of a style makeover - I love London shops! :D

    Kept my eating sensible which is good on an 'out of office' day as it can be a bit hit and miss!

    I did a quick job Google tonight - some interesting things! Not going to do anything at the moment but if this role proves not to be right for me it's good to know what options there might be

    Early night tonight, London is tiring! ;). Only two days to get through before hols, and beauticians after work tomorrow for some pe-holiday pampering. :j
