Well, if there's one thing... — 4 hours ago

LL commented on an entry by calypte titled "I want to want to!" regarding wake up every morning and signal my reconfirmed intention to change:

you probably should do, it’s probably to get enough sleep.

(So says the grumpy, tired chick who only went to bed before midnight once this past week. How does the saying go? Do as I say…)


So... — 4 hours ago

LL commented on an entry by calypte titled "I want to want to!" regarding wake up every morning and signal my reconfirmed intention to change:

what did you want to do today? Was there something you were in the mood for?

Who’s to say that you’re not allowed a day of rest every now and again? Or that spending an hour doing something you’d enjoy (such as making a card) isn’t important? If you don’t give yourself opportunities to recharge your batteries (both physically and mentally) every now and again, you’ll burn/stress/guilt yourself out.

Keep in mind, if you were in training for a marathon, your schedule wouldn’t have you out and running every day. That’s not how it works. You have to allow yourself recovery time.

LL added an entry about Rant, rave and get it off my chest (id est, post randomly):

Heard this over the PA, on a Saturday evening a few weeks ago:

“To all customers. Please do not lean out over the edge of the platform. If you get hit by a train, it is going to hurt.”

No kidding.

Positive thinking. — 1 day ago

Could you add jobs like this to your vision board, as ‘mini-visions’? As an example of how well you’re doing with your business?

I’m doing well with my ‘baby-business’ in web design, and it all started with the amazing website I designed for my friend X.

Or, summat like that.


That sounds sensible. — 1 day ago

Just at the moment, any drinking of water is a good thing for me, as I suspect I’ve been within the realms of dehydration for a while now. I’ll keep going with the morning/evening routine for the two weeks, so that I’m getting at least that in… and then change to the eight-a-day.

I love your avatar pic… it’s so cute!


I'll buy the stickers. — 1 day ago

If you like. ;-)

I don’t despise mushrooms… they just freak me out.

Olives you, too.


Speaking of reminders. — 1 day ago

I’ve been meaning to look at and join Kiva for some time now, and your post prompted me to do so this morning, Des.

I’m proud to say I made this my first loan… fingers crossed that he can get the rest required.


I received the replacement cables. — 2 days ago

LL added an entry about Retrieve my data from the LaCie Rugged drive:

And, whaddya know… it worked!

I’m happy to have my data back. The question that remains for me is whether the issues other people experienced were also due to faulty cables, or if there’s still a chance the drive could fail further down the line. Do I want to keep using a drive that could die at any moment?

Need to think about this a little more.
