    I finally cleaned the dining room table. It is decluttered and clear. It is impossible to place a bunch of lovely flowers on a messy table :)

    Well done on the dining room. I will join the decluttering push after lunch.

    I love a vase of Sweet Williams when they are in season. They make me feel happy to look at them.

    A ggod day in that I ‘took care of business’ successfully.

    I had my private class. As usual it was enjoyable and went extremely well. There is room for expansion. They would like a weekly instead of fortnightly class. I need to think about what might be best. I want to give them what they need but I also need to avoid selling myself short. It is so nice to earn money in way I enjoy so much. :)

    I also had a GP appointment and had bloods done. (Thanks Beanie for the nudge) A new issue was discovered at the appointment and the answer is exercise and losing weight. Isn’t it always? I have lost half a stone and that is good but not enough. I have lost my exercise mojo but I will get it back. I need to get the most from my very expensive gym, not been for 11 days!!:eek: I will step up a gear. Here comes the next half stone. The NHS recommend 5 30 minute sessions a week. I will be going for 5 60 minute sessions a week.

    A plan will follow…

    The house is a stinking mess but I have a day tomorrow to ‘get a grip’ and I will.

    Feeling confident (no idea why :) )…

    Not too long to pay day. Looking forward to being in the £4,000s :)

    Hope your week began well reader :)

    A day off :)

    Got to the end of the washing up today. 5 lots of dishes to wash and pack away! (Oh for a dishwasher) This is the first time I have got to a flylady shiny sink in days/weeks?

    Clothes washed and drying. A bit of ironing too.

    Nice strong afternoon light so I did my own eyebrows. Inspired, I did a facial scrub and a face mask and lightened my eyebrows. My face looks nicer I think. For sure it feels nicer.:D

    I am burning geranium oil today to balance me

    I swam for 30 minutes today first thing in the morning.

    I had a coffee out but used a loyalty card so free :)

    I bought some nice face balm in the clearance in TKma33. I was looking for a kettle, but no joy. :(

    Decluttered a chair cover

    I am going to take my rucksack tomorrow instead of my handbag. So I will walk 45 minutes from the station to work. :T

    Daily exercise will be the new normal for me in future

    Hoping everyone reading had a great day :)

    DIA I feel so much better after going to the gym , I try to do 3x 50 mins a week sessions , which is quite achievable for me. Good luck on that and keep it up.

    You have had a busy day and got loads done !

    Sound's like a good, productive day DIA.

    I've never heard of face balm. Is it nice.

    Good luck with the exercise. A half stone loss is fab by the way.:T

    I know, boo indeed. I think I can turn it around if I get my act together. We will see...

    Thanks cumbria lass. I always feel better too. I need to get to the stage where it is a habit and not there yet, but I will be :)
