Midlife Musings and Measurable Goals

another_casualty

You're doing the best you can in your various situations DIA 
You've probably heard me mention acupuncture somewhere in my diary or yours .
Times are hard etc, but a few sessions will go a long way . 

Hope counselling goes well . 

Hope you get some luck with the house bid . You are in a better position in terms of being ready to pounce for the right one , and  who knows if other bidders are as well prepared as yourself ..or not . 

You'll get the right one eventually . 

I'll leave it there ..😼

Hope the counseling nis beneficial and you can find a routine of self-care too.
What will be will be and I've everything crossed for you as you're in a good position as a buyer 😃

@MovingForwards Counselling was great and I am working on a routine of self care. I agree I am in a strong position as a buyer

Thanks @beanielou I too think the stabilising of the housing market is overdue

Thanks @another_casualty for your vote of confidence. As you say I am doing the best I can in all areas I am dealing with.

First things first. I did not get the house.

Someone bid over the asking price. It needed a lot of work and although I would have been pleased to do it for such a lovely home it is not to be. I would not be happy paying more as it is overpriced for the area especially when all the work is factored in. This time I did not carried away or over attach so I am disappointed but ok and ready to move on.

Counselling was great. The counsellor is lovely and I will be going weekly. 
I spoke to the acupuncturist and will try out a three week session to start with (@another_casualty this is free for me as a family member of a relative in the hospice) A referral has been made...

There are new issues with the flat so I will need to get things started so I will do this first thing tomorrow

I made some fab soup today

I cycled to and fro to have a NSD but I also enjoyed the exercise

I feel ok for someone who did not get a house she wanted...

Hope you are all ok too.

Sorry you never got that one, but the right one is out there, you just need to wait for it to go on the market.

I'm pleased the counseling went well and acupuncture is on the cards, both are good for the mind, body and soul.

Glad that the counselling went well.
Eeek to the house.

Oh & meant to say I often have accapuncture to help my muscles.  I like it.

Thanks @MovingForwards I also believe the right one is out there somewhere. I just need to stay positive. 

Thanks @beanielou acupuncture will help my stress levels but may be helpful for some of my other health issues too. @another_casualty also speaks highly of it. I'm looking forward to it.

Shame about the house, but well done for not getting sucked in to overbidding.

Glad self care going well. House prices must calm down soon surely ...
