Downhill run now - just got the ironing to do which will only take 20 mins to do and then everything done :T:T. First got to get DD from school.

Hope you all have a lovely evening and weekend; I'll see you all next week if I don't pop on here during the weekend.

OK, so I'm flying at my desk whilst trying to give myself a lunch break, and decluttering the paper mountain that has become my desk as I am working alone today. Meanwhile, I am, as usual, impressed with how industrious everyone else has been.

ScarlettsMum - I'm not sure I should kick you as I think you're being a bit too tough on yourself - all those tasks you're saying you "will do by Monday" - and by my reckoning, five of them that you've allocated times to add up to 7.25 hours. :eek: And a few of the others look as if they are more than 5 minute jobs.

Why not go a little easier on yourself and allow yourself to be happy with the things you have crossed off before Monday - and you've made a brilliant start - and accept that there are not enough hours in your day (even for the early risers ) for you to achieve everything on your list - and eat, sleep and remain sane. Which of course doesn't mean you can do nowt until Monday - a gentle toe kick perhaps.

PS I'm much better at dishing it out than doing it myself.

Time for a much needed mug of tea.
