Captain Awkward has a great list of these phrases. "Wow" is another good one.

I just may be pottering happily through an early part of the archive as I type.

LOL I used it on my mother when she said something sooo outrageously bad about the NHS.

One year anniversary for you since retiring this month. As someone galloping inexorably towards the starting gate I wondered if you had any reflections you wouldn't mind sharing?

Ooh, me? That's "wow" in a good sense! It must be me, I hope I'm not being narcissistic in typing that

:rotfl:

I think the thing that's struck me in this first year is what John Lennon published on his last LP, Double Fantasy, a few months before he was murdered: "life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans".

And I think I'm going to do bullet points on my own diary, after that statement :A to avoid hijacking, and just in case its not me after all!

Sorry yes, should have been more specific - and should have been at your place KC! - Is that my first senior moment I ask myself - (fortunately I haven't got to the stage where I answer me too :rotfl:

Sorry to hijack

Hope everything is going well Alex and you are all getting used to new routines.
I am assuming you are completing your paper diary, but don't forget to keep popping on here and keeping us up to date as well.

I'm sure you're busy Alex but do try to find time to let us know how it's going.:)

Not been on here for a while. Not been doing much for a while other than trying to get through the days. Things haven't been good, to be honest. Hanging on with the course and coping but it is not what I thought it would be. No further with decluttering / selling things off.

In other news, I'm busy with the property side of things with a potential big deal which will be quite exciting if it does happen.

Start as I mean to go on with ... Organise end of month treat ... Not even thought about this but I think I need something to look forward to.

Overpayment: Make one even if it is only £50. Should manage this.
Food budget: £120 / £400.
Meat free days: 2 / 10.
No work weekends: 1 / 3.
15 minutes piano practise each morning: 12 / 33.
At least 10,000 steps per day: 14,000 today.
10 minutes exercise (not inc. walking): 2 / 34. Haven't been counting but this has probably happened only 2 more times.
:rotfl:
A/F school nights: 2. Not really happened.

but most importantly ... Get through the month!:eek:
