Evening everyone, i am feeling so much better tonight, today i never once had to get back into bed or take any painkillers so first day since the 1st no headache/migraine
todays challenge completed.
Push yourself to do things, even when you dont feel like it. You might be surprised at how much better you feel once you are out in the world. Even if your depression doesnt lift immediately, you will gradually feel more upbeat and energetic as you make time for fun activities.
1. Complete the daily sudoku challenge
2. Complete the big brain academy test
3. Write your personal positive qualities worksheet
4. Complete a maths puzzle
My present to open today was a Book of Maths Puzzles#103 1p Saving Challenge Back to Front 293.94/665.95Currently Reading: Christmas at Cedarwood Lodge - Rebecca Raisin Debt Free thanks to MSE0 -
Ok I know I said one quote a week, but there are too many to chose from, so they may become daily
And they sum me up better than I could do myself.
Glad you feel better FS660 -
Nicki I'm going to have to go to Aldi in the morning now. Cars christmas paper I would happily use for DSs' birthdays and poss other kiddies too
Bought DS1 Disney Cars trainers and undies in the next size up for his birthday in May from Asda. The trainers were half price (£6) although he spotted them through the carrier bag when I got back- doh! He is thrilled with them but cried when I said they are still a bit big. I have a Cars Storybook and a Tshirt hidden so the plan is to get him the DVDs and some of the cars to play with.

Freespirit well done for completing your challenges despite being under the weather :j What an amazing son you've raised! I'm made up to save my parents so much. I've offered to help ages ago but my Dad had always controlled the bills and my Mum has just taken charge because he keeps overspending and running up debt. So she is putting me to work on the comparison sites :-P
OMO love the quotes especially todays lol:rotfl:
Up late as I've painted my nails a lovely fuschia pink. Making sure they are dry ;-) Not painted them in ages. Should really do it more often as it makes me feel good. January especially is a month where we need a bit of colour to brighten up the days :-)2016 MFW OPd £2000, 2015 MFW OPd 3000 then bought new bigger house with bigger mortgage.Beautiful boys born May 2011 and October 2013

Mrsinvisible we ventured out into the sales today, nothing fantastic to report to be honest. Few card bits in card factory and Clinton's, saw wrapping paper in sainsbobs local for 20p but resisted. Yankee candle things in Clinton's weren't very cheap and the wax melts were more expensive than asda and B&Q so resisted again. Yep you are right about being positive about DS (as usual) feel free to give me a nudge when I forget please xxx
Msgigglewick the hats sound fab. You'd laugh if you could see me wearing my new hat, never had one and if you saw you'd know why but it's that cold at the football, I'm hoping it's going to stop me moaning xxx

40m will probably last me until 2020 which is why I didn't pick up the Disney stuff as I have about 6 multipacks of sheets from previous years as they're easier to store for me :rotfl: Once I bought this sort of amount on clearance, folded it up, and ended up recycling some of it after about 6 years as the paper was starting to disintegrate at the folded corners :rotfl::rotfl:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
