    Lauren - my condolences

    Mothernerd - well done on the de-cluttering. My puddles have mostly stayed joined up and clutter free! It is so worth it.

    Today I took everyone to where they needed to be, at the times they needed to be there. Coped well with other people changing my plans or cancelling events, volunteered for 2 hours, and got everyone fed healthily.

    I can't promise the washing up will be done tonight - I am not allowed into/through the back room, so I cannot reach the kitchen. I am not upset by this. I think it has something to do with my upcoming birthday. Or they are making a time machine. Either or.

    My condolences, laurenh.

    NSD today. DD first school visit went well. Had both kids home early and did some crafting as it was so wet outside.

    Got dinner for me and the kids for tomorrow prepared in the slow cooker. Hawaiian chicken. Had the first strawberry in the garden today and harvested some rocket. First chillies (first year of successfully overwintering last year's plants. 6th attempt and 3/9 survived) and tomatoes coming.

    Finally found sth to learn that I can stick too (given up on book keeping or a new language for now). Started my online Horticulture course and love it. Goes with my education/career in biology and my goal to be a good gardener. Will use the me time in the morning before the kids get up mainly to study.

    DH has a race tomorrow night and will go out after. So will be a productive evening for me. Still working on to do list :)

    That's all for now.

    sending sympathy laurenh

    Busy day at work as we have an event tomorrow. Finished early as took DD1 to first counselling session; we are paying between us - DD1 found it helpful and she has some breathing exercises to do each morning - hoping will help her with anxiety and other MH issues.
    There have been some nice Ikea-ish bowls in our work kitchen that I've been eyeing up - our Facilities manager said they were given to us and I could have them - so I've now got 4 in my kitchen cupboard and very nice they are too :)
    Ate all meals from stores. Done well with fruit and salad consumption.
    While DD1 was in counselling I walked in the rain - done 8500 steps today. Also went to pilates this eve - part of a course paid for last week.
    Tracking all spends and budget is ok.
    Gratitudes - positive counselling session for DD1; great pilates class this evening; free green bowls from work
    Nite everyone

    Work today. Yesterday they told me they would like me to stay an extra 3 months which will take me to October so I am going to confirm that today, also in this months pay I will be getting a small bonus, I think everyone gets one but I'm not sure how it works and if it is a regular thing but I'll take it either way.

    Photogenic Debt-free and Proud!
    4 NSD's in a row takes me to 8 for the month as of yesterday. Potential spend today, with a definite spend tomorrow and Sunday.

    I like to keep my NSD ratio 1:2, so if I'm on 8 by Monday that's the 17th, so I'm short. You get my thinking?
