  1. 7. Cry with someone else. It's more healing than crying alone.

    1. vodkafan

      or just make someone else cry instead!

      ... with laughter, I hope!

  2. 6. You don't end to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

      Great advice again. I've heard people phrase it as 'do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?'.

      Ah I like that, I think I'll add that to the list!

       

  3. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

      Or don't have a credit card! :D

  4. 4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will. Stay in touch.

      Loving these Chaliepud. Thanks

  5. 3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Change the way you think.

      Well said. x

  6. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

      That's a great idea! A great list to ease us into the new year.

      Hmm, poppy, wonder what she'd read? Probably a gardening book, she's rather keen on pruning.. :D

  10. Well, we got our first picture of new puppy chaliepud, I have posted it on the Pets forum if anyone is interested.. Still searching for a name that we all agree on!!

    1. Athena

      Athena

      So, so cute ^_^! Good luck with finding a name :), that can be difficult with multiple people involved.

  11. Just under 8 weeks to puppy proof my home and garden and catch up on some dog behaviour reading.. Very exciting!!

      Yep, the little girl was born on Tuesday so just over 7 weeks to wait! :)

      You didn't bring a wolf puppy back home with you chaliepud?

    4. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      Tempting, but no... An Australian Cattle Dog is the next best thing though - part dingo!!!

  12. Had a fantastic afternoon yesterday with the wolves at the Wolf Conservation Trust, learnt lots and got to stroke a couple too!!

      It was AMAZING!!! It's easy enough to do, Steve got me membership for a year (about £100) and included in that was a free wolf walk for 2, you are in a group of about 15/20 but you get plenty of time to ask questions (and debate in my case!) and to meet and greet the wolves.. Then you get to watch them being fed and more talks..

       

  13. Just 10 days until I walk with wolves.. Very exciting!!

      Oh, and not to take your pet dogs with you!

      This is sounding more dangerous by the minute!

    4. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      Definitely would be more dangerous if I took Obi, and not necessarily for him!

  14. I'm watching Secret Eaters which should be putting me off snacking, but I'm feeling really hungry now!!

  15. I have my first gym induction today... I'm very nervous, haven't done any real exercise for 14/15 years!!

      Don't worry, Chalie.. everything will be alright.

      chaliepud

      All went well, but have my first full session on Thursday, that may not be as easy.. But at least I'm looking forward to it more now...

  16. I've just discovered houmous, mmmmmmmmm...

      I'm getting hungry just by thinking about it!

    3. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      I know, I'm struggling a little with hunger pangs so its good to find and discover more healthy snacks as would be too easy to grab a biscuit or a bag of crisps! Found some lovely thin crisp Ryvita flat breads to dip into the houmous too..

    4. bobblybear

      bobblybear

      Houmous is delish! You can get all sorts of flavours as well!

  17. Happy Easter everyone! I am using Easter as my New Year and have joined a gym and am trying to eat healthier too, feeling positive but haven't been to the gym yet and only 2 days into eating better! So watch this space...

  20. It's my beautiful daughters 12th birthday today, I decorated the house last night and this morning she had pancakes and maple syrup then Lindt bunnies for her breakfast, such a shame she had to go to school!! Still, we'll celebrate properly tonight. :)

      chaliepud

      Well us British are a bit like that, especially on dull winter mornings.. think he needs some twiglets with his pinch punch though!

  23. Schools finishing at lunch time so now I'm getting calls from friends who work! Four extra kids for this afternoon so far, I do envy those of you having a quite snow day reading!

      We have no snow, but I also have no children to look after so my reading time probably still exceeds yours chaliepud! x

    3. Kidsmum

      Kidsmum

      We had snow but not enough to close the schools much to the childrens disapointment

    4. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      Our schools back today though my youngest is off with a bad cold - typical! Still no extra reading time!!

      It' was really fun looking back at those old posts, but a bit scary seeing how long ago I bought some of the books that are still on my TBR shelf!
