When you find one, let me know what it is. I've NEVER had a job that doesn't involve working outside contracted hours and end up with me taking my work home!
I'm shattered. Skipped yoga, came home, had a bath and am about to cancel tomorrow's crack of dawn personal training session. Not good for the weight loss, but there's no way I can do it.
I'm working out what I'm doing for Lent... I really need to give up alcohol, coffee (at work particularly) and chocolate as a minimum. And keep a food diary... and get my exercise regime back on track (hence the need to sleep NOW!). I notice the Christian Aid have done a 'count your blessings' campaign for Lent which I might look into too... I think it would be good for me! http://www.christianaid.org.uk/getinvolved/lent/count-your-blessings.aspx
No flying today, but the house is looking pretty good. I should be able to sort out some more stuff in the utility room/kitchen now the cupboards are sorted and the shelves are up which will help. My dad checked the attic, and there's no sign of mice, but it looks as if a bird might have been in there. He's put some rat poison down anyway, and is going to bring some netting to put over the air brick next time he vists
Working from home tomorrow, so hopefully will get some bits done. I need to focus on the phone calls - tree surgeon & cake-decorating course - it shouldn't take long to get them off the list.
Off to make my hot water bottles and decide whether I need to eat before I go to bed... I think it might just keep me awake!0 -
Ooh, just checked the list and it's kitchen tomorrow, which I did today, so that's all done Toots0

Well I'm off to declutter some dirt - am going to wash my hair before bed as I'm having my hair cut tomorrow (free) and would normally have washed it at the gym tonight, but I didn't go cos I did some food shopping instead, as well as a mountain of marking in school. I've got a pile of work to level in school on Wednesday (the head is giving me PPA time to do it in) although I doubt I'll get it all done, as it's a completely different mark scheme to the one I've used before, and I'm a bit rusty having done supply for so long now. Still, it'll be good practice in case they ask me to do any on my trial day. I also have to do a parent's evening on Thursday night as I taught this particular class for 3 weeks, and their normal class teacher has been off sick for so long - I will be paid extra for this.
Well, off to the shower I go, as it takes ages to dry my hair, and the disadvantage of doing it before bed is that it has to be completely dry before I go to bed as I don't want to stain the pillows.
Night night all, if I don't get online tomorrow, then happy flying.

Still trying to clear the debris from 2 parties over the weekend. I had birthday party during the day on fri for all my mummy and baby friends- 9 babies all but 1 mobile! And then family round on the sat which was my actual b'day. I have a big family, but it was lovely, I didn't get stressed at all just relaxed and enjoyed myself. Then last night i was not liking the state of my house, so I blitzed the living room so I could relax, then I've been out all day taking DD swimming this morn then errands etc this avo, so this eve I have blitzed the kitchen. The main mess has gone but now I need to do a good clean and I'll be back on track! Phew! Best get on with a bit more before bed, I've got another busy day tomorrow- soft play!0
