Wake Up Wednesday

Yes it is time to WAKE UP and stop waiting for stuff to happen - JUST DO IT!!!!

I have decided this month to get my life back on track.... exercise - better eating - big lists - maintain the house better - save for renos one bit at a time - organise the shop better - set classes with set projects..... and the list goes on.

I have been feel very low and flat with everything that has been happening - and even though all of these things have effected me emotionally I cannot let them pull me down too far and stop what is best for me & my family.

SO I am back to reading my positive affirmations/quotes everyday and will post one on here each morning too - or thru the day if I find some great ones.....

Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential. ~Winston Churchill

today I am home....
I am going to scrap [with Carol]
get classes ready
I will put up some sneaks
and I am also going to look into a fun comp we can run on the forum to get the mojo flowing for everyone

that is what my day is

tonight I have a class - so that will be fun

Hope you all have a great positive day

today will be a better day Peta. I need to do the same stuff apart from the shop. I have had a terrible time this year getting motivated.

scrapped the BC last night so will upload sometime. So much to do today so I need to stay off here and get things done.
I start work Thursday/Friday teaching year 2 in a couple of weeks so need to get things happening there. I had a 2nd interview for another job and got to the final 2 and then missed out. Hoping this 2 day teaching job lasts until the end of the year.

have a fabulous day

let the new day start Peta and enjoy today

its Abby's 14th birthday today so another one down lol
it would help if I knew what to get her

but other than that
still feeling the effects of TKD last night but feel great inbetween feeling sore

of to TAFE in 15 min
other than that my house is still a pig sty but dont care at the moment

Good morning girls

I am at work till 5pm today, no scrapping for me last night, had no mojo, so Im hoping it comes back tonight or tomorrow.
Enjoy your scrappy day Peta, make sure you share your stuff

Hope everyone's day is FABULOUS!

Yep Omg what a night. Won't bore you with the details but let's just say I have ditched my toddler with mum. Sick of her lol.

PETA I will be around more now so will be doing more DT stuff. Will chat to you soon over the next couple of days.

So we're at swimming and the grocery shopping.
Then a nap this arvo.

Need to menu plan for the week.

Have some gorgeous stuff to scrap with. Hopefully later today. Not holding my breath though lol.

morning girls


oh dear Mal don't you LOVE nights like that!! hope you get a bit of a break today.
hope work goes quick for you kel
happy birthday Abby!! good luck with the present buying tam!!
deb good luck with the job, you sound very busy!!
good on you peta. taking CONTROL is the best way to get out of that rut. Say a big hello to carol for me!!!!
still have the sore throat and ear thing, both girls have runny noses and heidi has been complaining about a sore throat and neck as well (whilst bouncing off the walls being hypo lol) so have dosed them up on meds and sent them both to school, and will keep an eye on them. I must say that I am looking forward to winter being over with, we as a family, seem to be more healthy and well in the warmer months.

Went and did my treadie walk this morning, took both girls to school, just had breakfast and im going to go have a nice hot bath. Want to scrap but dont know, might shuffle some papers around. feeling really positive about my weigh in tomorrow, even though its been a rough week being a woman if you know what i mean!!

Love you all!! xox

well I am home alone - loving the peace - my music - my coffee and the smell of brownies cooking

Mal - I wish somedays I had my mum here to wisk Sienna off too - our girls sound so similar - Sienna use to scream uncontrolably - but at 3 she has stopped that - she now just stands her ground ----- stubborn biatch!!!!
and dont stress re the DT stuff - all happy here

Kate - I am sure all your persistance with your exercise and healthy eating will pay off for you real soon - it doesnt have to be big loss each week as long as it is consistant small one

Tam - happy bday to Abbey - and as for pressent ideas - yep I have nothing!!! unless something furniture wise for her room - a nice chair, rug,wall shelves???

Deb - make sure you get Oct off from work
hope you get all your stuff sorted...

Kel - LOVE your step by step - might do it next hope work doesnt drag
