Awake for a while thinking and planning! Today at home I will go to the gym, I will do some work, and tidy house! This will be my plan!

Just waiting for transport connection stood outside a shop I have frequented in the past! Many hours wasted, stood in cold thought I would post on forum! Look forward to satisfaction later, currently mind telling me otherwise!

Hey Matt, 

I know it’s cold outside but great to hear you are not in the shop. Don’t give them the satisfaction of taking your money. Spend it on something that will ultimately make you happy. Hope your connection arrives soon.

Thanks for all the support it was good and satisfying to get home and no regrets or issues of challenge. Today starting out again for a few days - got gym kit in car so plan to fill some time that way

Today has been hard! Been up since five working and it’s payday, this eve I have been sat arguing with myself in my hotel room! Just pop out for a footy bet! Pass the evening etc etc! Not that there is such a thing as a quick footy bet! If only, sensible head winning had a shower and writing a blog!
