Is anyone up for a ‘be more organised/sort your life out’ style thread?

I feel like the last three years have been so busy and hectic that I haven’t been keeping it together. Had DS, DP had breakdown, I had an awful year of depression and still suffer with anxiety now, quit job, new job, DP still unwell, dad died and on and on.

I’m overweight, always undergroomed, badly organised financially and my life is running away with me. I’m largely positive by nature but do love a good list!

I want to lose weight, get fit, be in a better position financially. I’m going to break my days down into food, exercise, money, house and something nice, so...

Food - bad day, all the carbs and all the chocolate.

Exercise - 8 hours in the office including commute so nothing and no more than 4K steps either. Did do 30 minutes weeding though. DP at his mums tonight so no chance to go for a walk after DS is in bed.

Money - unexpected outgoings thanks to me forgetting to cancel a subscription to taste card. Got cash for expenses at work, no spend day otherwise apart from postage for some photos that were otherwise free.

House - need to water plants and tidy toys away once DS is asleep.

Something nice - I’m going to watch buffy in silence with fresh orange and tonic water after bedtime!

Does anyone fancy joining in?

Well I started off well......

Weekend was a manic spell of running about and spending time with my neice.

Got three loads of washing done on Sunday, all dried (I'm not going to pretend I ironed them) and put away.

We've got a friends dog for the week so my steps will be up but he pulls like a train and my back is aching after only one day (and I only walked him twice, DH did the other two walks).

Soup and salad for lunch yesterday and today, bolognese last night and sausages tonight with something!
