Wednesday 24th

My partner did the school run for me today so it meant that I could have a bit of a lie in and not have to rush about in the morning ready to get out.

I went to visit one of my friends in the morning as I normally do on a Wednesday morning. I had a nice time there but one important thing happened while I was there. We were both saying about we do not have much energy to get things done when I asked her if eating chocolate would drain me of motivation and she said that it would. I then realized that I have been eating a heck of a lot of chocolate recently. I need to cut it out if I am to get my energy and motivation back. I think I will start by cutting it down rather than out. I have to be really strict and only allow myself one bar at lunch time.

After I saw her I went to see another friend. I have not see her much because she has a wee baby to look after. I did not have to worry about collecting the twins so I was able to spend some time there. It was also nice being able to relax without thinking about when I next have to rush off somewhere.

I did have a bit of an embarrassment in the afternoon. I forgot to take my wallet to the shop and I only realized when I was at the counter. I lovely thing did happen though on the way home. The woman who drove the taxi that used to take me to Homestart offered to run me back home and then back to the shop. I thought that was a lovely thing for her to do. When I was in the shop paying for the items I saw a woman on the street and she offered to run me back home. I always think it is nice when that happens.

My eldest and daughter have been really cheeky recently. My eldest is being ruse to me and being really silly as well. My daughter is being cheeky like my eldest but she is also being noisy, not listening to me and taking things that she should not. I will have to read the book I have got to see if there is anything in there that will help.
