Well done on the decluttering jwil. I need to contact a few people to sell the rest of Mr Retired's books and other specialised equipment.

On more exciting news I've been on a singles holiday to New England. It was strange without Mr Retired being with me. Another first.

You are doing really well retired

Wow, what an amazing holiday, I hope you had a lovely time. It must have been strange without Mr Retired, but I hope you enjoyed it. Was it the right time of years for all the trees changing? I'd love to see that.

Wow! Look at that decluttering list. Amazing. You’re doing so well. Am also really pleased that DH is slowly but surely starting to clear stuff too.

Am glad about swimming too - progress on skills like that is never linear so it’s particularly great when something clicks and they shoot ahead..

Have a good rest of your weekend

Thank you Brizzle It's getting there I'm so pleased with the kid's swimming lessons.

Payday today, hurrah! Everything paid up. Did the money shuffle to ensure the required amount was paid into the new joint account which will be fully switched this month. Will start setting up DDs on there for the bills so we can get some cash back.

Stayed the same at SW this week. Have blown the weekend as well. Will try and get back to it this week.

My mood has been so up and down recently, that's not helping.

It's hard to eat well when your moods are up and down, but it's true that you have made a lot of progress so look at the bigger picture with regard to your weight .
