V is for Vanilla 24

[Vanilla]

The clocks went back last night, it's cold, I forgot to put the heating and hot water on. I need a bath.

So I am a very lazy V indeed. Lying in bed posting. And I gave myself yesterday as a free day. I moochef, then went to a friend's birthday party. I ate a huge piece of cake, not good for a diabetic.

I will have backache and wasted muscles. I am wasting the day and there is so much to be done.

I downloaded the affair first series from Amazon Prime, I also had to buy a new sky WiFi box mine no longer works. And a new loo seat for the rented house.

Some items to return to the shops, maybe I should do that instead?

I didn't write down my daily goals last night so no focus today.

So I am going to put the heating and those wretched purple bed socks on and get to it.

I am quite down at the moment, once again it's my fins. No cash to pay for anything. Too much to do.

I hope I can get through this very soon.

Cash won't start to flow until I invoice, I could do some of that today.

I posted this on another thread and I can remind myself of it:


There are two days about which we should not worry,
Two days which should be kept free of fear and apprehension.

One of these days is YESTERDAY,
With its mistakes and cares,
Its faults and blunders,
Its aches and pains.
YESTERDAY has passed forever beyond our control.

All the money in the world cannot bring back YESTERDAY.
We cannot undo a single act we performed;
We cannot erase a single word we said.
YESTERDAY is gone.

The other day we should not worry about is TOMORROW
With its possible adversities, its burdens, its larger promise.
TOMORROW is also beyond our immediate control.

TOMORROW, the sun will rise,
Either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds,
But it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in TOMORROW
For it is as yet unborn.

This leaves only one day – TODAY.
Any man can fight the battles of just one day.
It is only when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities
– YESTERDAY and TOMORROW –
That we break down.

It is not the experience of TODAY that drives men mad.
It is remorse or bitterness for something which happened YESTERDAY
And the dread of what TOMORROW may bring.

Let us, therefore, live but ONE day at a time.


So using my current power phrase Go girl, go girl, go girl.
