i peeked at tomorrows list i am so glad it's kids rooms day.
Ds2's room didn't get done last week and it's a state.
Off to sort out tomorrows list.0 -
Greenbee - big hugs - hope your family find their feet again.
Rach - hugs hun - I've done the BIG commuting bit many times and it really does wear you down. It's a slow, insidious, creeping thing. You think you're coping but you're not actually. After a while every long journey gets harder and harder and harder and you end up worn down. Is there anyway you and DH can move closer to your work places - or perhaps find new jobs closer to your home?I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
