Well I failed miserably with Novembers actions, so here goes with the new one for December if anyone is interested that is! Enjoy if you do use it, all the best x

It is hard not to be hard on yourself isn't it sad
We're doing quite well folks as we are all trying and mostly succeeding in our own ways.
One quick question! Where can I find the tick emoticon - or is it something that a batty old relic/old croney who can only operate a basic laptop would be unable to access?
Oops! Does that count as being hard on myself even if it's true grin

Did day 4 but can’t say how ✅

How lovely Izabella x

Just realised that that (Old habits . . . ) can go on to the Proverbs thread!

Squiffy Thu 06-Dec-18 10:50:33

Morning Kayeyk! Just looked at today's one - I don't think I'm hard on others (though they may disagree with that - lol), but I'm not very good at being kind to myself! I think a lot of us are guilty of that one! Old habits . . .

✅for me for yesterday, this is much easier than Novembers was!
I even think I could award myself todays tick as I have already fulfilled that, but perhaps I am making this too easy, I will continue and see how the day pans out and see.
How are you all doing?

Anniebach Wed 05-Dec-18 12:19:24

Squiffy, thank you ? ✅ for yesterday thanks to Squiffy x

Kateykrunch Wed 05-Dec-18 11:00:42

✅for me for yesterdays task, I nearly got a bit judgemental but managed to rein it in.
Hope you are having successes everyone, even if it means doing it outta sync!
Now for today..........

Squiffy Wed 05-Dec-18 10:46:23

Annie You didn't fail, you left kind words to me on this thread on Monday! So, a big tick for you! tchsmile

Also, I would think it's OK to do the actions in a different order, if needs must?! tchsmile

Anniebach Tue 04-Dec-18 12:39:31

I failed yesterday . Today I will succeed , I love listening to people ?.

Izabella A little glow is lovely isn’t it x

Izabella Tue 04-Dec-18 12:05:17

Well I am doing OK but not in any particular order. When I read through all the days it did galvanise me into doing something I said I would do a while ago. Left me with a little glow as the recipient was extremely overcome with emotion. tchblush

Kateykrunch Tue 04-Dec-18 11:28:30

Oooo fourormore, will take a look at that, my lovely Dad was a Royal Marine!
Good luck for the Days, whatever order you do them in lol.

fourormore Tue 04-Dec-18 10:59:02

Not doing too bad so far! Sunday I found a new charity so did the job properly rather than cheat which was my plan!
We went to a Royal Marines Band Concert and in the programme was an article on Troop Aid.
Too long a story to go on here but check out their site -
www.troopaid.info
The grab bags are so simple yet so needed!
Good luck everyone - haven't looked yet to see what I have to do today - typical me - things in the wrong order grin

Kateykrunch Tue 04-Dec-18 10:54:33

Welcome Squiffy, better late than never.
I am awarding myself my Day 3 ✅, well done me!
I am working on Day 4...might be a nod and smile day lol.
How is everyone else getting on?

Anniebach Mon 03-Dec-18 20:13:07

Squiffy only a little late what matters is your here x

NanKate hello x

Squiffy Mon 03-Dec-18 13:56:19

Typical me - late to the party!

Great idea Katey!

Annie good luck with your phone calls. You manage to hang on to your sense of humour despite everything that Life chucks at you ( I don’t do intrigue but I do Welsh )!! tchgrin

Kateykrunch Mon 03-Dec-18 13:42:22

Oh crikey Annie.....good luck! x

Anniebach Mon 03-Dec-18 13:19:06

Easy for some, I have to phone HMRC and CITB ? but I will keep trying ?

Kateykrunch Mon 03-Dec-18 11:21:17

Annie, the day is still young, I am working towards my ✅ for today, I hope you have a lovely day.
NanKate, thank you, what a nice idea for your donation, have a great day.
Welcome Izabella, I hope you enjoy taking part.
See what I did there?, I am earning my Day 3 ✅, off to continue my kind commenting and it is all from the heart on this rainy dull (in South Yorkshire) morning.

Anniebach Mon 03-Dec-18 10:03:33

Knew I would fail on Day3, my brother should not have phoned me whilst I was still in bed ?

NanKate Mon 03-Dec-18 08:22:28

Yes meant to say Well Done Katey for highlighting this great calendar.

NanKate Mon 03-Dec-18 08:21:23

Such an inspiring calendar, will try and print it off and put it in my diary.

It has reminded me to give our annual donation to the YMCA to get a youngster off the streets at Xmas so that they can be warm and safe.

Anniebach Sun 02-Dec-18 19:19:26

Congratulations Katey

Hello *Izabella’, I thought the same when I found this thread

Izabella Sun 02-Dec-18 19:14:06

What a wonderful idea.

Kateykrunch Sun 02-Dec-18 19:10:43

Fabulous Annie and in reference to my Day 2 action, I’ve just had a phone call to tell me that I have won one of the Christmas Wreaths, Yay! ?

Anniebach Sun 02-Dec-18 18:33:51

I don’t do intrigue but I do Welsh, that wouldn’t work though. But - I shared
