So I have started my happiness project. My first set of targets are "Energy" and "Marriage". I got up early and had time to sit down to eat my breakfast. I ordered in a healthy lunch from the deli instead of being tempted by the offer of a sausage supper from the chippy. I acted with the energy I wanted to feel and I think that worked! On the home front I am only just in bed - an hour later than I hoped for - but I have been extremely pleasant to James. My resolve was tested when he accused me in a deceptively casual voice of breaking his car's heating system by fiddling with the air conditioning (when I was so hot yesterday). I kept my temper and said mildly, "I don't think that I broke it, but it must be very frustrating for you that it has broken again." which actually worked because he said sorry for accusing me. To be fair to him, I have form for this sort of thing because I have damaged his car quite a bit but I honestly don't think the air conditioning fault was down to me! I also made James a cup of tea later. I didn't take any exercise today but I feel I have made quite a good start to my resolutions.
As for my lovely boys, Jamie has started his placement at a GP practice today; so far he has been getting some training and learning how to write prescriptions. Cat was round yesterday and today and she and Ally went over to M and D's at Strathclyde Park then persuaded me to come and collect them after work! We drove home from there in high spirits with the roof down on the car. And David has been working well in 5th year and is still enjoying it - I'm really enjoying his company on the journeys to and from school. Well I'd better get to sleep to keep up my energy levels!
