Hope you didn't catch the germs em I really don't like it when people come into work when contagious. A couple of people do that after D&V which freaks me right out
Well done lilac it's all those little incidences of resisting things which really add up I reckon.
In the spirit of recognising our achievements, I have one. Last night I went through the fridge and packed things into the freezer according to our meal plan (eg the chicken breast and mint). This lunchtime as I was making the DCs' lunch, I realised there'd be some spare wraps, so I froze the spare ones leaving only enough for DS' quesadilla tomorrow (as per the meal plan - on Wednesdays DD has scrambled eggs before Brownies, DS has something quick and DH and I eat later after my piano lesson).
It's a small thing but this is the kind of thing I often forget to do, and we end up throwing away a truly criminal amount of food because of it.
Also I have earmarked various food and snacks for particular days, eg tomorrow when we need a picnic, rather than just blowing through it and letting the DCs have whatever snacks they want for an easy life. Turns out 'no, we will be having those tomorrow' is actually an easy thing to say and was readily accepted by the DCs, who I expected to whinge TBH! :o
So I think the meal plan on the whiteboard is really helping. I hope we can keep using it :)
Anyway, zero motivation on the housework/errand front (home ed has gone pretty well though), so much I need to be doing but BLAH I can't be bothered really, still feel rather anxious about DH's job obviously and can't focus on anything. Going to try and distract myself now by actually doing something useful
