It’s very easy to see things going so well that you take on more stuff and try to get back to the person you were before. It doesn’t take long for the fatigue to kick back in but it does take longer for you to realise that you’re overdoing it.

In the last few weeks I have overdone it, making things at the sewing machine for my daughters and their new homes. Making stuff for a friend and her charity work. Trying to build a website and start a new business (failing miserably), sticking to my healthy eating (failed at that pretty miserably too), walking the dog, starting a litter cleaning campaign because my local park which should be beautiful looks like a dustbin and on and on and on the list goes. This week it’s hit me that I need to stop, slow down, read a book, have a cuppa, watch rubbish on TV and just take a break.

Things are moving ahead fast with jobs in the future pipeline and stuff which is amazing but really maybe I’m not as ready as I think I am.

That said, my weight loss has reached it’s target woohoo, thanks slimming world. It looks like I’m moving home at the end of the year and that comes with a new job again woohoo. The local council and police seem to be bored of my rantings and have arranged to meet me tomorrow for a ‘chat’, I will try not to rant, it gives me a headache, maybe I will pull the brain tumour bomb tho hahahahaha.

The fabulous computer I bought is turning out to be hard work too, I have no idea how to use it so I’ve given up the ghost and thanks to PPI I have employed someone to build my website, thanks Arnie for making me look into it 🙂

So my note to self this week is slow down, you’re not quite ready to live at 100 miles an hour yet and you really don’t have to, take my own medicine and rest and chill out time.

On this note I’m signing off to relax with homemade beetroot and chilli crisps with homemade hummus. Maybe a glass of wine, do I dare???
