It's Wednesday!
I'm breathing.
I'm healthy.
I'm truly blessed.
I'm grateful for this day.


Happy Wednesday!

Morning!
I am getting through my lists. Completed some stuff that has been on there for yonks. Should have just got on with it.

Nearly feeling brave enough to start thinking about workmen and getting more stuff done in the house. Sadly I only have about 25% of the money to get all the stuff done that is needed.

I need to get past the fear of doing stuff in the wrong order. I think that is my main stumbling block.



Grateful for:
Patio doors - all the fun of being in the sun, without the need for sunblock
Reading tat books (curled up in front of the patio door)

Finally finishing the stupid passport renewal forms (no patio door involved)

Finding £5.50 worth of T0sc0 vouchers, so I am going to go and see how far it goes in a £0 shop.

f0xh0les - Can't you get burnt through windows? Mind. Blown.

Today will be NSD number 11 of the month. On a bit of a roll this month which I'm happy with. Long may it continue, although I doubt it somehow!

NSD No 11

Himself's day out with his friend so I've spent the day doing a little bit of cleaning and household chores. Depressing the more you do the more you see needs done but never mind it'll get done in the end.

Just watched a film about Alan Turring. What a genius that man was.

So dinner by myself. Chicken from the freezer. Looking forward to my day our tomorrow.

Chocolate lover - so glad to hear about ds' improvements.


Kerry woman - 18 nsds so far - impressive!


Today I am grateful for the sunshine, for getting things finished at work, for good results from emails I sent, for tesc0 sending us £10 of vouchers - it's usually 50p - for buying our texas flights, for dd enjoying school, for making a yummy tea, for the sainz points ideas from thenewsletter.

Had food delivered to mum's so put all that away, had another attempt at getting the garden chairs to hang on the shed wall (didn't work so will think again), put together a fruit platter for mum to eat, she's also very impressed with the nuts I bought her, went through mum's messages (laughed at the one from her old friend), finished a book last night and am half way through the next.

Workmen installed my bath rails yesterday, they said I was star because I had to clean the bathroom anyway so offered to deal with the brick dust. Am about half way through deep cleaning the bathroom (probably why I hurt so much today). Took one letter to the post box for mum as soon as I got to her house and brought one home with me and that's been sent as well.

Grateful for finding a pair of leggings (most of my clothes are in the wash), for the dishwasher finally deigning to start and for good reading material (picked up another couple of new ones in series I like) and trashy reading material too.
