What can I do to get back some self respect? Well, I have decided that self care is important and I am making healthier choices in my diet. I am taking care in grooming and presentation and when I feel better (yes, a debilitating and unrelenting cold took hold just after my last pitiful blog post) I will take a trip to the shops and buy some new clothes with my husband's hard earned cash and get my hair done. I portray myself like a working woman from London's 17th Century with one outfit to be worn everyday and one outfit for best. Yes I joke a little but it is not far off from the truth.
In addition to taking pride in my outward appearance again I am doing some online courses to sharpen my brain. The courses are free and will only cost my time and effort to do. They are available by ALISON and can be found by clicking here. With hundreds of choices from anatomy to art, photoshop to psychology, masonry skills to multimedia, there really is something for everyone. I have just completed a course in English writing skills and quite fancy the one on colour theory for artists and designers.
In other news, I am still walking to the budget supermarket twice a week. Today's indulgent purchases there were French biscuits. The biscuits can be shared between husband and son and the lovely tins are for me!
