Good Morning Girls!
Hi DrSarah, lovely to 'see' you, you're going well!
I've been MIA for a while - I caught DS' cold & have gone downhill pretty quickly. We've still been busy with a few things this week but I'm hoping
to have a restful day.
All I'm going to do today is bare bones routines, 2 loads of washing, paint 2 little desk organisers that DH has made for me out of some spare timber
he had & cook dinner. The rest will wait.
I'm planning to 'alter' the desk organisers (mixed media type thing) but probably won't do that while I feel sick. Painting will be a good enough start.
Wishing you all a happy day  |

Hi Dr Sarah, You're doing great and lovely to 'see' you back on the forum.
Hi Elasti, Hope you're feeling really good very soon.
Hi everyone,
Busy and feeling a little overwhelmed today. Kids' soccer games and my class this afternoon, but lots of work due next week and the usual blessings and day-to-day jobs. Will pop to the 3s, I think.
Hope you all have a good day.

Hey there! Elasti-Girl - sorry to hear you're not feeling well, but good for you for taking care of yourself properly and knowing when it's a day for easing off. Elizabeth - just keep plodding on bit by bit and it'll all get done in the end. Amazing how much you can do just by taking it a bit at a time! Having completely triumphed over Friday here (I finished EVERYTHING on my day's to-do list - I seriously think it may be the only time I've ever managed that) I'm nipping onto this forum to start drawing up my to-do list for tomorrow. (Waiting up for DH so we can watch 'Once Upon A Time' together, so I feel like doing something useful with the time!) Mostly doing more of the stuff I've already done, just chipping away at it: - Empty dishwasher
- Few minutes more on children's room
- Few minutes more on living room windowsill
- More work on post about Lundy Bancroft's book
- More work on own writing
- Another CPD module
- Get DS out for a walk (DD is calmer & can miss a day of getting out without ending up climbing walls, so when DH is home I can leave her in the house)
- Exercise
Hmmmm.... trying to decide whether to put ironing on that list or not. I'll have that down as a 'maybe'.
Hope you're all doing well. I'll catch up with you guys in the morning!

Good Morning Lovely Ladies, nice to see you all
It's raining here today, I know I shouldn't complain as we really haven't had much. But why a Saturday, it really does effect business on a Saturday. Any other day of the week is not so bad, but Saturday is a real downer. Also I didn't do 'Load a Day' yesterday but was planning a couple today, might have to still do some and hang indoors.
Yesterday was pretty FLY. Got my Friday FLYaround done which feels good. I would normally be at work and it wouldn't happen. House-wise I am feeling on top of it - excluding the Zone cleaning that is still in the planning(procrastinating) stage. Got my Daily Routines going pretty well and my Sink was Shiny at bed time.
I did great with my exercise yesterday, but then the diet fell apart when DH offered me a glass of red and I didn't have the will power to say "NO". All sense of moderation went straight out the window. At least I had done a good workout to balance falling off the diet wagon. Back on again today. This month has just been spinning my wheels and I am getting rather frustrated with myself over it. I am going to have to start wagging my own finger in my own face soon and give myself another stern talking to. It has finally happened that 2 people have noticed my weight loss, and I couldn't feel worse about the stalling month I've had. It's not even a plateau (which happens form time to time when dieting) it's just that I am NOT following it correctly and therefore not achieving. All my own doing. Anyway less talk, more action required.
I think DD16 and I will head to the local shopping center later in the day (after the worst of the crowd clears). Both of us are feeling a little 'cabin fever', she has an eye on a WII game and I'd like to check out some fridge baskets and some faux Tuppleware at KMart. DS21 & GF will be here for dinner tonight and I need to think of something for dinner.
Ok, time to move it. Wishing you all a Super Saturday and a Wonderful Weekend ahead. Try to find some time to relax and renew for the coming week,
|

Well, took me a while and I didn't spend nearly as much time on my writing as I should really have done... but the criterion for the list was just to spend at least a bit of time on that plus the other things, so, once again, I've got everything done. Hooray for manageable to-do lists and for holidays!
