Hello all,

Well, I posted on this thread, and then didn't do anything about keeping my challenge!

So, I am starting again (story of my life).

I will make my lunch BEFORE I go to bed. As it's Thursday, I'll do it next week too.

And hopefully will come back for a second change....

my changes have not been going so well...

this weeks challange is to tidy up my front room each evening before i go to bed...

it would be great to get home from work and have no piles of ironing stacked up, and a tidy throw on the sofa!!!!

Mellika, hope you are beginning to feel better. I agree that we're all far too stretched these days, and feeling guilty because we feel we should be achieving more and more all the time. I'm not sure I can make a change that lasts in just a week any more! Last month I did (almost every day) make myself do a long walk before school with the dogs, and definitely felt better about it. However, on the few days I didn't I was determined not to beat myself up about it. This month I've begun well, continuing with the walk - but this w/e I am just bone-tired and haven't managed it. Never mind, tomorrow I'll hope to get going again!
I'm trying to make myself do just 15 minutes of sorting stuff in my spare bedroom (aka "the place for everything with no home") - but again, if I don't, well I'm doing loads of other things at present so I won't let myself feel a failure! Good luck to anyone who's still trying to make small changes - I'm sure it's the best approach really.

My challenge for next week stay sane and healthy....

yes a weird one, but after 2 hospital visits, (1st clooasped, 2nd asthma attack), and very nearly hospital trip no3, as had a another asthma attack, ended up with my neighbour calling 999, Im sat outside his property on a plastic chair, full view of the street, being treated with oxygen and their stronger asthma reliever - shouldof put a hat out for collections, half the street came out for a look!

But new week starts tomorrow.
Tues - got daughters school trip to a farm, those parents that aregoing have been allocated another child to look after......me on 2 crutches.trying to run after 2 children........ could be fun

Wed - Go to court to give evidence against my next door neighbour..help...

thurs - think Im booked in 4 nervous breakdown.. (only joking)

Wish me luck plz, need it x

Gawd havent I been rubbish about this?? lol
ok I'm back (honest)
my change for this week was to take out the money I thought I would need for the whole week and LEAVE THE BANK ALONE!
It's gone really well, I have a file thingy which I have sectioned, putting aside the money for my sons bus fare/school lunch etc and £10 a week for each bill or whatever
I am definately going to keep doing this
