Far and Away

Can't see the image yet @Faith-and-Hope but will come back to it

I hear you about the more relaxed atmosphere without Mr. there. It was really lovely coming on this morning and hearing about what a good time you all had - it makes it so much nicer when you can relax, order what you want and not have someone looking over your shoulder all the time or dictate timeframes or conversation. 💛🧡💚💙💜

I have had a very successful morning. I went to the tip shop to look for square white tiles. I needed 8 to go with the 15 I already have. I not only found them but they only cost me a dollar - one single dollar - so happy about that. They are for Father's Day. I am going to get the kids to trace their hand and then fill that with small coloured rocks. They can decorate around the hand with a different colour (or combination of colours - their choice) then I cover the entire tile with clear glue for a more glossy look. I have done it before where the kids have done a design of their own choice (looks great as a yin yang design) and they work really well. I can have the kids doing that while I take a could to work on the birdhouses 👍😊

I also got the nails, the shopping I needed and some mechanical pencils as prizes for the kids at school (that is what they wanted and I found some cheap - yea). Also cleaned out my car, hung the washing out and changed my bed. I feel a bit like I am on turbo speed today but boosted by finding all the things I needed for this week so easily and quickly.

I have also decided not to do anymore cutting today. I have enough birdhouses done for the kids to do over the next 3 days and Thursday I can do the rest on my day off. Instead I will do the rest of the housework and get some of the planning done before I take time out to watch the footy this afternoon. It doesn't start until 3.20 so I have a few hours.

Feeling very much like this is all do-able now (birdhouses, tiles, planning, housework) - and my cold seems to have significantly improved today - no more sinus pain and coughing and sneezing nearly gone. I was afraid it would go to my chest but seemed to have avoided that too. All in all feeling much better 😊

I hope you made it to church and you can have some more lovely moments today with your cousin. Much love and hugs to you Hon 💜💙💚🧡💛💐🌷🌸🌺🌹💕😍

Hugs to you too @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Former-Member and all passing through this thread

hello @Sans911

well done for this morning @Zoe7

@Faith-and-Hope, @Zoe7 , @Former-Member

mr shaz is going on and on about my cousin and aunty today after yesterday even to my mum this morning at morning tea

It really has been a big morning @Sans911 but very productive. Still doing washing here and will get the vacuuming done soon too - I always feel better when the house is vacuumed

How is your day going Hon - any progress on that pesky assignment?

I would like that @Sans911 I'll send you happy, finishing vibes for part 1 today

You must have needed the rest yesterday and I am glad it has given you a little more energy today - you got this Hon

That does sound frustrating @Sans911 but you are still doing it bit by bit. Any progress is still progress Hon. Give yourself a break for half an hour, get a cuppa, clear your head a little, and then tackle it again. Regular breaks are just as good as starting a new day when you can't seem to get your head around something. It is unfortunate you are going to lose that week but it needs to be done Hon. You can do this - your number one supporter right here cheering you on 😘

I was going to make a lame joke that Mr A must be after the mouse @Sans911 but then most people don't use a mouse with their laptop anymore
