Thank you for all your good wishes. My arm is usable but some movement still hurt. Going carefully atm.

Will edit this post later with more details but yesterday was a NSD so I'm at 7/15.

EDIT: Yesterday was a good day, although very busy. Had a doctors appointment in the morning as I needed to go for a smear test. Will hear back in 4 weeks they said.

Work was manic - didn't get in until 10:00AM - had to leave early at 4:00PM and finish the rest at home as connection issues in the office.

Tom made a lovely dinner though when I was finished - although I have been good all week and scales are not budging. Hopefully they'll start to budge in the right direction towards the end of the week!!!

I'm working from home today so I'm hoping for another NSD - I'm at 7 at the moment but if I can make it to 10 this week then I might just make target!! (Made the NSD so now at 8/15)

Afternoon, everyone

ORGANIZE:Started the massive declutter. Gently at first but I have a kind of plan. Just don't know how I'm going to sneak everything into the bin without the other two seeing me.

GET READY FOR WINTER: Haven't done anything else about this.

Check the torches are working
Look out winter hat, scarf, gloves and boots
Look out tracks for covering shoes for walking in icy weather
Council are responsible for gritting path and lane but might buy some salt anyway.
.
ALWAYS BE KIND: Took in 3 great big parcels for my neighbour to save the delivery man coming back. Does that count?

IMPROVISE: Can't think of anything.

STOPTOBER: Better not go into that.

EXERCISE: Walked to shops

ONE MORE TIME: We'll see or rather I don't think we will (ignoring the scales for the moment).

CHRISTMAS: Found some of last year's paper so have wrapped the presents I already have. Must start writing the cards a little at a time. It's my least favourite part of Christmas.

NSD: 6/12. Needed some bread today but otherwise spending very little and still using up food from freezer.

EXTRA INCOME: Did another survey. They all seem to come at one.

Hope everyone is well.

I'm now up to 9 nsd so that's 9/15. I'm doing well this month. Went and bought some Christmas presents today. I don't go crazy with toys at Christmas but some people today at the sainsburys sale had trolley loads full. I can't believe how much people buy. Slipped off the wagon on the decluttering front. I started the month so strong but as the nights r drawing in I just can't get motivated to sort through stuff.
