Happiness and Focus
Whenever I sit down to start blogging something usually happens to stop me. I feel like I’m running away from my children trying to get chance to do some things. A’s supervising while they all get dressed at the moment though, so I’ve sneaked off downstairs. Right, brief catch up.
I decided to join in with Netmum’s Making Mums Happy campaign and try and get into a more generally positive frame of mind this week. They send an email late every night with ideas of things to fit into your day the next day. They are fairly simple - exercise, have a good laugh, do something altruistic, count your blessings, talk to people, grow plants etc. I’m having trouble fitting the things into the day though. Just seems like a whole more things to remember!
And now everyone’s back downstairs andI’ve been broken off to change a nappy, which led to sorting out the washing because there was a big pile of dirty washing on the kitchen floor ready to go on so the first lot’s in now, then I remembered I’d run a bowl to do the washing up so I started that, but L wanted to feeding so A took over and I came back in here. Then saw a Paypal payment had been returned so went to investigate and it was something A tried to order yesterday, so went to see if I could find somewhere else to get it (seller suggested another website which doesn’t seem to be there) and then L wriggled and fussed so I juggled him for a bit and now he’s crawled off, and now I really ought to go and iron a top that’s been getting crumpled in the clean washing basket so I’ve something to wear for church, so I’ll have to try again later
Think I need to learn to focus!

Flippin’ eck they’re fairly time consuming things some of them aren’t they? Think that would just make me feel more pressurised, and more of a failure if I didn’t get them done
Hope your day gets better and you find some guilt free time for yourself. xx
