Before I forget - hugs to everyone who's had bad news or isn't feeling great. Hope your stay in hospital goes as smoothly as possible, toots.
I'm in this week, although I'll be working to my own list (and maybe achieve 10% of what I'd like to do
). Thanks to pigpen and co for the fred.invisiblecabbage wrote: »Hope your meeting went well this morning Mrs C. Always stressful when the goalposts move which they invariably do, constantly!
Thank you! It was actually very positive (Why do the things you dread sometimes work out so well?). I was congratulated on things I'd done well and had pointers on what to improve (deadline for revised version of report is next Monday :eek:). I was also able to say my bit about how the task could have been made much easier/less time consuming and I could bring up an urgent issue that needs to be sorted. Considering that I didn't have a break from 8.15 to 2.45, at least I got something out of it.
The Chaos list for the week (first draft):
my inhalers M T W T F S S
DS2's exercises M T W T F S S
HW with DS2 M T W T F S S
Tea and clear up M T W T F S S
