Good afternoon fabulous people!

Here's another quote:

In one essay Ralph Waldo Emerson records these words: " The more trouble, the more lion; that's my principle". Just whose words were these? Emerson's own? Those of some famous philosopher? No, they were the words of a woman of no particular standing. Deeply impressed by her conviction, Emerson recored her words and so gave her a place in history.

I passed another milestone!

I hadn't taken my car to the local DIY carwash since Mr Ex left. It was something we did together, well he would wield the hose thingy's cos he was 'da man'.

My DD was going to go with me but couldn't. Today I put my big girl panties on and decided I was going on my own and get over any sadness I might feel.

What gave me the motivation to go was "oh I won't have to talk to anyone". So I gathered up my unbrushed hair into a scrunchie, put on my oldest trackies and a hoodie and drove there. I was standing there reading the instructions when a guy came up smiling and asking if this was my first time. I mumbled "um no, but it's been ages". So he very nicely proceeded to give me CarWash 101.

I had lots of fun wielding the hose thingy's until "final rinse" didn't work. I was just going to leave but obviously the guy was watching me and came straight over with another guy to fix it for me.

So much for not having to talk to anyone 😐

But I did it! No tears. Just a little wistful but I did it. 😄

MsCat, that is wonderful news about the car wash.  I thought you were going to finish off by saying he asked for your number.  :^O

Let's hope you don''t wait so long til your next car wash.

The last week of Daylight Saving  B-)

I am going to miss it.  Especially in the afternoons.

I hope your holiday is going well and you are getting benefit from it MsCat.

Jacks, it is nice to know that your Miss has a part time job and that she can give herself some money to use.

I loved that photo of the oung girl huggiing the elephant.

Keep well everyone.  A few things going on here at the moment so I haven't been into eBay.

Good morning :-x

I do hope there is nothing too stressful going on for you Braff. Any news on Alicias progress?

Miss 14 has been as sweet as pecan pie this week (so far) .

How is your fitness routine going Kylie? I missed training on Monday this week and just came home from training this morning. Hopefully my trainer will change my plan next week as I'm really tired of these challenges she is setting up for me every Friday.

I hope everyone is doing well. I'm off to sell childrens wear today. Have a good one people 🙂

Hi Lovely People!

I hope everything is okay Ms Braff :-x

Jacks I hope this is a turning point for Miss 14 :-x

I had a really weird dream the other night and woke up in fright. Then I realised I was feeling very hot and cold at the same time and I thought "uh oh". I ran downstairs and applied my alternative remedies then spent the next day in bed. I'm feeling a little better today but I still feel 'hot' and achey. I guess I have the flu. :^O

That's okay. I realise I was running around trying to fit lots of stuff into my holidays when I'd promised myself I would rest. So rest it is.

I hope everyone has a fabulous day :-x

How is your fitness routine going Kylie? 

Not as good as I planned! 😞

Just sooo tired alll the time!

But, I have really cleaned up my diet, so that's a start at least, and the rest will come I know it!

I find when Im training hard my diet slips cos I know I "can" eat something cos the exercise would've well covered it, but as the exercise is minimal Im stricter on my eating and looking into making my own food plans from previous sessions with Weight watchers, bodytrim, etc... all the things that have worked in the past blended in to fit my life!

Im really missing my P/T that's for sure, I just cant afford him until Im back to work!
