With Purpose...

I'm sure we all have those days where you wake up motivated, get prepared and set out on your day with a mission and purpose for the day, only to come to the end of the day to realise you did absolutely nothing you were meant to.

This was me today. After gathering inspiration from a great blog i've been following SuperOrganiserMum I decided to take up her bathroom makeover challenge. This was today's main task , along with the following list of important things to get done.

1. DO GROCERY SHOPPING

2. Buy birthday present for T

3. Post photos to Shelley

4. Buy organisers & accessories for bathroom, inc shower curtain, bath mat, towels, baskets etc

5. Reorganise and decorate the bathroom

I headed to the shops, list in hand with a purpose, to finish my list. I stopped in at a great little sandwich bar for lunch and stuffed the list in my bag. I finished up and started wandering around the shops, a good couple of hours later while checking out great kitchen displays and new activities I can do with the kids, oh and bought a couple of facewashers. Much to my disgust I had completely forgot all designing, planning and colour coordinating that I had done. My mind was blank, no matter how much I walked around that homewares store I could not seem to find what I was looking for. A little deflated, i figured it was time to go home, not before stopping in at The Body Shop where I a half hour buying items to pamper myself with :)

So I got home feeling great, I was off to have a bubble bath, until I remembered my list. I pulled it out of my bag and realised I did NOTHING on my list, and most important was my grocery shopping. So i headed back out to the shops only to find them all shut.

I guess tomorrow is another day :)
