daily reflections Sunday 19th January

What went well?

Had a fabulous lunch at my dear friend, C's house today.   Delicious lunch.  Lovely to see C and their new house.  Which I can't quite believe they have had for 2 years already.  I am so glad to be back in touch with C again.  Life has taken us off in different directions I guess, or something, I dunno, but we haven't really seen each other for a few years - apart from at her hen night 2 years or so ago and briefly at a big lunch about a year ago.   When we caught up again in London the other week, it reminded me how much I like her and how well we get on.  So it was fab to go visit her house and keep that momentum going.  She is an ace person and a good friend.   More catching up there please.

Bub was super well behaved and Hub drove home so I was able to drink wine (and Kraken, which I rather liked!)

I am practicing doing one thing until I am finished.  So yesterday I stayed focused on sorting out the finances.  I had some bills to pay (oh hang on still have to pay the drama classes.... note to self in cal now) and I kept going in the finances department.  AH.  still have to sort the builder money by Friday.. nother note to me on the cal NOW - done.

And so I did that  yesterday  -and this morning I carried on.  I still have to complete feb up todate with  - I think Hub's Credit card deets.  maybe the bank deets.  I updated my accounts and invoices and have nearly done the expenses claim too.  I want to do that tomorrow morning so that can be sorted asap.  Anyway I was pleased that this morning I woke up, and then had tea and sat in bed and just carried on with the work.  I need to keep going with that until tis done.  More to do tomorrow.

I figured out how to download the bank deets into an excel sheet and that it makes sense to wait until after the end of the month to do this.

I drank lemon water first thing.  Had a good green smoothie for breakfast.  I did plank and 20 mins meditation today.  And I cleaned the kitchen and the bathroom thoroughly.  It really needed doing.

Could do better
I learned today that Hub gets cross if I don't ask directly for him to do stuff.  I learned that he doesn't understand why I get pissed off.  I get pissed off because he doesn't pick up the slack, or notice that things need doing.  He is cross because I got cross when I could have just asked.  But he doesn't understand that I am cross because I HAD TO ASK.  I think it makes sense.  He doesn't.  AND then I am cross because he isn't even trying to understand.  But there we are.  Its a drama triangle and doesn't really get any of us anywhere.  He doesn't understand.  Therefore, in future, my could do better is that  -  I need to ask.  More bloody often.  HA.

Food  - can def do better on the healthy eating tip.  I did OK, but didn't really eat a good dinner.  Two bowls of cereal and lots of snacking isn't brilliant and i can do better on that front.
