feeling better
about life in general lately. Have been much more positive since Christmas finished, didn’t realise quite how much it was all getting me down. Still, it’s over now and a new year tomorrow to look forward to. I’ll do the 5 thing soon, not quite got round to it yet.
Been getting up early and trying to get on top of the house. It can be such a tip if I let it 
Anyway, it’s been working. I’m manageing to sort through stuff although I can’t say it’s all tidy, we’re on the right track.
The idea is also for me to get up early so the kids follow suit and, as a result, go to bed easier. Have spoken to Alex who thinks it’s a good idea if I sit and read on the step while she goes to sleep. So we’ll try that for a while. If they can start going to bed earlier I won’t mind so much sitting there. It’s when it’s 10pm and they are still bouncing that I have a problem!! Thanks for the comments yesterday anyhow 
Must go as tumble dryer finished. Have already made soda bread and banana muffins this morning, plus have some pizza dough rising. Am making pizza’s for a party we’re off to tonight. Not too sure whether I’m looking forward to it since I called FIL a twat the other day - eek!! Fell out with them Will update tomorrow 
HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!!
wow, you domestic goddess you! I set the alarm to get up this morning with all good intentions to do sorting out sort of things - and slept through it and didn’t rise til 10! Ah well, have moved loads of toys upstairs, and the children with them
so at least it’s peaceful down here atm. Hope you have a great party regardless.

Glad you are feeling better. I am feeling alot better since ‘christmas’ finished. But still keep getting downers (we must have been getting the same fog surrounding us!) Like you i have been filling my days with housework. Trying to sort out my house if not my head, clean house clean mind and all that!!!

I had to giggle at your calling your FIL a twat!
I really wish I’d gotten round to calling my MIL one when we were all still talking……um, 5 years ago now!
Sounds as if you’ve had a good day today. I hope you enjoy the party.
Happy New Year

I wish you all the very very very best of luck with your early to bed plans Kirsty, we try everything with naomi and her brain carries on fizzing away , anything that can extend the time with us and delay bedtime is used by Naomi. It’s so exhausting for you I bet . We found a quiet time before bedtime helps lol but nothing ever helps for long .
PS like the new blog, didn’t recognise you !
