A Loose End...A New Beginning

I found theorganisedhousewife
on facebook. Well worth a look.

I am going to take the De-Cluttering Challenge - 52 Things in 52 weeks, except I am going to attempt to de-clutter 52 things in 52Days!

My youngest started full-time school this week, and my job came to an end so i am at a loose end!

At the blog-writers instruction...I am going to write a list of things/spaces to declutter...wish me luck!

Slow and Steady

I am going to try a new stunt. I am going to try and trick myself into doing all the things I know are good for me. I am going to take a gradual,measured approach in the hope that this will make my new life improvements stick. i read somewhere that you have to do something every day for a month for it to become habit. So I am going to try something new for October. I am going to remember to take my anti-depressant meds as soon as I wake up every day. Because I forget a lot. And that is not good for me or my kids or anyone around me. I am going to make a big, bright sign for next to my bed and leave my pills and a water botlle there. And hopefully after a month it will just be habit and I won't even have to try anymore. Future challenges will include:


I will "Findy Thirty" minutes of physical activity every day- playing with the kids, walking, dancing etc.
I will drink 8 glasses of water every day- I read somewhere that being even 5% dehydrated causes your cognition to fall by over 20%!
I will do 4 pleasures every day.

any other suggestions would be appreciated. If this works I'll be perfect by this time next year!
