it’s a journey I’m taking rather than looking at the brochures for! I had to move house rather suddenly recently and went through EVERYTHING I own. I purged: gave away and sold a BUNCH of stuff. I tossed what I couldn’t give away or sell and wow… it’s such a great feeling to be this organised. Now I can see that if I just stay on top of things each day it’s actually pretty easy. I love not having to root through the ironing basket for something to wear. I love knowing what’s in my freezer and I am happy knowing that my house is always company ready. Fabulous feeling.

Take a grown up holiday... just the two of us... somewhere secluded and romantic! (read all 2 entries…)
It’s been such a long time since I even came to this website – SLACK SLACK SLACK. Since then we took a few days and went away over the July Uni break. Awww… it was lovely. If only it didn’t end with a broken hand that needs reconstructing. Oops. At least we had a lovely time until that point. :) Yay.
I just wrote an entry into another goal, and part of that involves exercise… I am going to ‘walk’ everyday – for at least 30 minutes. I will do strength exercises Sun, Tues and Thurs and one other exercise type activity at least once a week.
Starting today. Ready… Set… Go!
