I ended last week feeling slightly optimistic about life and a little bit pleased with myself. I have found that life has a habit of giving you a good kicking when things are looking slightly up and after a pleasant weekend Monday came along and my kicking was duly delivered. I won’t (and cannot) go into detail but suffice to say, the bad news started at 8am and came at regular intervals until late last night.

I’m nothing if not resilient so today is all about picking myself up, dealing with stuff that I have the ability to deal with and finding ways of mitigating the fall out from things that are not within my power to deal with.

I also plan to avoid black cats, ladders and anything else which might bring me bad luck!!!

Have a great day
