Hope everything goes well for you meeting with your boss today and that you're feeling thoroughly refreshed after your pampering.

Well done on getting the time out. It sounds like it was well needed. Slowing down and appreciating life really helps. 

I did really need it. I was wiped after just being at the hairdressers Saturday so still not back to normal.

Do you have any local walks that will give you that sense of space and being in the countryside?

Love the picture of the sand and pebbles. Never fails to amaze me how the sea can sculpt the sand like that.

Sounds really positive that your DD feels ready to move out. Does this mean that your plan to move to the country might be more feasible?

Hope that you have a good day today...thinking of you.

I need to try and get out for walks more.  Spent most of today at friend's house. I love the sand and pebbles picture... Also how getting down low to take the shot changes the perspective.

If DD moves out successfully we will look to sell up and move somewhere more rural ...

Hope you like your hair. Nice that you are taking the time for yourself. Thanks for the beautiful photos

Hair is nice but not as red as I would like. Photos make me find the awe and beauty in the moment. Definitely wished I was back there today.. 


I did take some videos but spoke so can't share on here...

The photo is fabulous, like giant footprints in the sand!

Thanks MF and WelshKitty
Meeting with boss went well. Spoke to GP too. Likely to do reduced hours for a while. I worked about 5 hours today at friend's house but was so wiped didn't feel safe to drive the few miles home until around 9pm. DH appreciated the effort though and we had a nice chat.

May put overnight bag in car in case as tired tomorrow. Struggling with sensory overload currently and sleeping badly. Enjoyed the peace and quiet at friend's house (while she is away). Cleaner returns this week after 3 weeks off which should help too as there will then be less nagging jobs in my eye line.

Thanks HSL. I thought the same. 

Paid £257 off debt yesterday - leaving target card at £1K. Another £75 is due to come off that this month too which will leave it at a max of £925 at the end of the month. Going to download an excel version of our statement from our bank and work out where we are at. I heavily depleted our EF and put all accommodation on a CC - but we will pay that off in month so not counting that as part of debt. Our other CC is ticking along at about -£14 pcm. It has under £1400 left to pay...

Debt now down to 2384- still heading in the right direction despite recent extra spending. This month - focus is on clearing accommodation bill and topping EF back up...

Did some work. Went swimming with DD. Ate out with DH. Now come to friend's house for a few days. Will still do some work from here. Trying to balance my needs, work and family... Never easy.

Hope you are enjoying good weather where you are...

Vibrant orange roses putting on a show for me at friend's house. Trying to find the beauty in each day... These are stunning

MovingForwards

Whatever it takes, self-preservation is a high priority. Soak up the colours, smells and close your eyes while doing it, really let that memory stick, even if it takes repeat attempts.

The roses are gorgeous!
