Thanks Dee!

7:19am and I’ll take 24 more hours please.

Travelling all week and reading/posting from my phone. Not ideal, and I’ll probably miss a lot of the great things everyone is up to. But I’ll try and keep up the best I can

Safe travels ManInTheArena!

Happy Tuesday everyone. Hasn't been the greatest Tuesday so far for me but I'm looking for and finding positives. So far today....

a) I got two more speeding tickets in the post this morning courtesy of the person or persons unknown who have cloned my car's number plate. This has involved being stuck on hold for ages waiting to report it to the police and quite a lot of detective work to provide evidence that it wasn't me driving. But the positives are.... I can provide evidence that it wasn't me driving and the police were extremely helpful and understanding on the phone.

b) I got a phone call from my bank saying there has been suspicious activity on my card this morning in France. I'm not in France and seeing as I've been on hold waiting to talk to the police all morning, I haven't been engaging in any suspicious activity. So my bank card has been blocked. But the positive is.... thank goodness for fraud departments keeping an eye on suspicious activity. I will get a new card sent to me in a day or so and I won't lose any money... it's really no more than a minor inconvenience.

c) The kids have been fighting and moaning about missing Easter eggs and then the dog vomited all over my bed. The positives are....at least this solves the mystery of the missing Easter eggs and I was planning on cleaning all my bed linen today anyway.

d) The kids and I went to the vets to get the sick dog checked and when I was presented with the bill I realised that I had no way of paying because my bank card has been blocked. But the positives are.... the vet was extremely understanding and told me that as we are so well known at the surgery (my dog is always doing stupid things) I can come in and pay when my new card arrives. The best positive is that the greedy Labrador is absolutely fine.... he looks about ready to go Easter egg hunting again.

So, all in all everything is fine. And whilst I do feel angry about the person speeding around London with my number plate and the person living it up in France with my bank card, I'm determined to keep sending positive vibes out into the world. Because if the police don't catch up with these crooks, karma certainly will. And she can be a right bitch. So there's no need for me to be.

Congratulations to everyone celebrating a milestone today. 24 more for me please xxxxx

Good morning everyone. Im still sober and intend to stay that way!

The rumors are that I may get another 10 inches in the coming days! There’s just no end to this winters misery. Oh well there’s nothing I can do about it so, there’s no sense in getting mad about it.

Congrats to today’s celebrants and all who are here today!

Let me love myself today

It’s been a tough two weeks. Between snow days, my toddler getting sick and spring break I feel like I haven’t had a break. I just dropped both boys off and will be alone until 2:30. I feel like I can finally breathe again!
On the agenda- heading to the gym now for an upper body workout. Then back home to start work on the patio- I need to pull out nails and staples, clean the ceiling and walls and prep it for priming. I am hoping to start painting next week. It’s white now but I’m doing a blue ceiling and hanging strings of lights. Maybe I’ll takr a before and after and show you all when it’s done.

Anyway. I’ve been actively feeding my food addiction and I just want to stop. I am hoping today I will treat my body with love and respect. I can’t keep numbing myself anymore. It doesn’t feel loving or kind in any way.

Grateful for each one of you and sending lots of love from Maryland USA

Good afternoon everyone!
Yet another busy day. Just finished off my work then I'm off home to do a couple of hours painting. There! I've told you guys so I can't squirm out of it!
I'm so pleased I'm getting the odd text from the girls while they are away which has helped a lot. They sound like they are having fun.
24 please!
Love to you all and special hugs and thoughts for those of us struggling or poorly or caring for loved ones xxxxxx
