Evening my beautiful diary friends, 

Thankyou @savingholmes they put out for night cover earlier. I'm on tomorrow afternoon. Made it clear I would not be staying to do part or all of the night. I'm speaking to the gp on Thursday. My skin is ridiculously dry it's actually embarrassing it's so dry it's flaking onto my uniform at work 😭 I'm sure it's stress related. 😩 

Spoke to my grandma earlier on video call. 
Spoke to my brother over text. 
I'm back in contact with my mum. It's early days. Met her once for some food on my own  it's too early to introduce the kids. It's been a long time she's never met ds2 or dd and the  last time she saw ds1 when he was a toddler.

Spoke to my best friend over text too 

DP had a hospital appointment today. That went okay just got to wait for the results now. 

Hope everyone has a lovely evening 
Take care
Love hugs positivity and prayers to you all

Taking things slow with wider family sounds wise.

Hope your skin improves and that your DP's appointment goes well.

I've been listening to the audio book 
Unstuff your life some of it is relevant to me but I think I prefer the chaos cure so I've rented that one again and I have a few reserved for when they become available. 

I'm truly sick of my life being consumed by stuff and the time it takes to try and keep this place clean and tidy. It's becoming exhausting and overwhelming so it's time to do something about it. It really has hit the point of dispair for me 

So far we have done the lounge and downstairs toilet   we did the dining room not long ago but it's back to how it was. Same with the kitchen so it's time to purge like we  are moving house, let go and finally have a house of contentment

We have done the kitchen today, we'll clean and tidied it. Decluttering can wait for another day 

Just doing dinner then I'm going to go up to our room.

Hey, I feel exactly the same about my house, I got inspired watching Stacy Solomon’s ‘sort your life out’. It just made me want to lay all of my stuff out and then get rid of it all! I get over excited and end up doing every room all at once and everything just ends up being the biggest mess imaginable! It sounds like you’re doing well!

Thankyou @SouthCoast and @missymoo81
I love that programme wish they could come and do my house 🤣

Tomorrow I have the day off I'll see what the weather is like in the morning before we decide what to do. 
I do have a plan to start categorising and decluttering tomorrow. 

I'll keep you updated

Afternoon  all. 

Our free gusto box has been delivered. So I've put all the meat from our food shop that we haven't used in the freezer. I've picked meals I hope the younger 2 will eat (they are both extremely fussy) 

I'm off to stick some tunes on and tidy up and sort stuff Into catagories and vacuume bag my clothes I want to keep for after my hernia operation.  

OH has gone to pick up his prescription. 
Ds1 has show rehearsals tonight 


I'm going to do a ta da list today rather than  to do .. to help motivate Me
