Good Morning Girls,
Today I want to finish off decluttering the kids stuff - the end is nigh! I want to also get into DD’s room some more - I’ve stalled on that front, there’s so much to do in there - it’s overwhelming. I just need to keep in mind that it’s one step at a time & it doesn’t matter if it’s not done in a day.
I just checked the FLYlady website & it’s kitchen zone this week, so I think I’ll get busy in there before DH & the kids come back. My oven is atrocious.
I need to go buy a kettle, so I’ll pick up some grocery supplies while I’m there - I’ll go do that early before it gets crowded. And check the mail on the way home if I remember.
Sunday a load a day (got enough to do a load today) finish MR exercise shops/check post office box FACE 15 minutes paper taming finish decluttering kids art stuff declutter in DD’s room rubbish bins out to kerb fold & iron afternoon routine before bed routine call DH cross stitch
that’s a start Ok up & at ‘em.
Wishing you all a happy day

Hi Elasti, Sounds like a plan! You're doing great!
Hi everyone,
More work then an information reunion this afternoon with some girls from high school. Need to plan the week and sort childminding for this project that wasn't meant to drag on into the school holidays. But it's working ok and the kids are having a good time anyway.
Also need to shop (or ask DH to do it).
Wishing you all are great week.

Good Morning Elasti, Elizabeth and all the Lovely Ladies to come
Struggling here. Tired, Stressed, Eating Poorly, Not Exercising as I should. Poor DD16 is no better today, honestly the poor kid hasn't missed a symptom of this virus. She is being really brave and a good patient considering, but she is so sad, she is missing all the fun of the holidays and starting to worry about what she might miss when school goes back. She is due to go on an excursion to the Lion King in Sydney on 16th July, and as this point she can't stay out of bed and on the couch for much more than an hour. She is so weak and fatigued, we just can't see she will have the energy for an 8hr excursion. I have had to tell her she won't be attending next weekends Dance Eisteddfod and no dance for at least 1month after school goes back (until she gets the all clear from the next liver function test, last one wasn't good, the virus attacks internal organs too), this also means she won't be working and getting paid either. Please continue to send your positive thoughts for a speedy recovery.
Today will be attempts by me to be good. I need to find that will power again, my motivation has waned a little and the scale were not kind to me this morning, Having all manner of salty and sugary snacks in the pantry to try to tempt DD16's appetite is just too much temptation for me. I am preparing everything so it's actually at my finger tips all day long. She fancies something, I get it, open it and then she only has a small amount and then either turns off it or finds it too painful to eat, so that leaves open packets of all the food that made me overweight in the 1st place. Being overtired does not equal good Will Power. So today I need to be strong and make ONLY good choices. I have fallen off my horse but need to get straight back on before this gets too out of control and derails all my good efforts and achievements.
Sorry for whinging. Wishing you all a Super Sunday xoxo

*hugs* shellie
Have a great reunion Elizabeth
Hope you get all the stuff done Elasti
Yesterday was 2 DNephews' baptism, Catholic, which I had never been to one before. Had a good time catching up with in laws afterwards. FIL is coping, but has lost a lot of weight, lost a lot of hair, including his moustache (which has has had since before he met MIL)
DH will need to mow today. It is now 7 days until we are off to the snow for a week, DD is super excited
Church this morning, must go get ready
