Time for a plan Stan - new years resolutions start now!

That's a great list of jobs you've done today:T

I've been a TA of about 8years now, I love it. I started a foundation degree in education a couple of yrs ago, but only completed the first year and then half of the other year. I had been ill so got behind and gave in in the end. I did a few OU courses before I worked in school, and my plan now is to go back to that and complete a Maths degree...I always wanted to teach, maybe one day I'll get there:D I love what I do but the pay is dire:o

When's baby no.2 due? I not surprised you're feeling it a bit with a 1 yr old too - make sure you plan in some relax time for yourself;)

Thanks Pixie. I was a TA too, I loved it but left to have Roo and financially it really didnt add up to go back to work. But this way atleast I'm getting time to do my degree. You should go back to the OU and start again, you'll be glad you did. I'm currently trying to figure out whether to change degrees so that I can teach what I want, but I'm waiting for an answer back from my nearest Uni to find out what the entry requirements are for PGCE, but I'm hopefully expecting an answer back within the next couple of days, so fingers crossed its the right answer!

Well I managed 2.5 hours on my assigment, without stopping, so much for my half an hour blocks I'm glad I got some done, but now I'm more than a little bit daunted by the amount I still have to do before thursday! But I have the christmas radio on and have a mince pie and a cup of tea as a reward for my hard work.

So tomorrow is sort out the downstairs day. This is going to be rather a bit more difficult as roo is a pain when hes downstairs as he can get into everything and does given half a chance, which sort of stops me getting on, but hopefully we'll be ok. he was a lot better after he had his nap this afternoon, but consequently he didnt want to go to sleep this evening!

speaking of which hes just woken up and is screaming, oh dear

Morning, lurked on your other diaries so thought I would drop in and say hi

I dont have a baby but have a hoss, full time job and an OH who just doesnt see the mess that is our home :cool:

I am very much like you and need a clear plan of what to do to get the house organised, debt paid off, work done and a baby horse trained, so not much then :rotfl:

Just trying to find the time to do it all and am very unmotivated some times, have a huge mountain to ebay which would clear of a lot of debt but come in the evenings and just doss on the sofa watching rubbish tv, ignoring the mess around me too. One day will get it sorted so will be following to see if your motivation rubs of on em

Ok today happened a bit slower than it should have, having been up half the night with Roo.

But so far I have, unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher, fed roo, put some washing away, washed up all the bottles, put a wash load on, tidied up roos mess.

So not much really, But yesterday and in the middle of the night I did put in 2 tesco orders for xmas x

Hey Baldy! Thanks for unlurking, I forget people actually read my insane ramblings lol.

It sounds like you do have a lot to do! Motivation is key and at the moment it is sorely lacking. I think it is because I am rather tired. On top of my list this morning I have done 2 more loads of washing, unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher again. Put the bottles away, sort yet more washing, have made roo and me lunch and am currently sitting in the Lounge trying not to fall asleep whilst reading my text books whilst roo plays.

Hey Missy,

Completely missed your link to your new diary when I read your last post on old one :rotfl:

Anyway, seems you are getting on top of this organisation thing. Something I am not - although I am liking your idea of a time table. Me thinks I shall be stealing this idea

I echo what has been said, make sure you find some time to rest and take it easy. Looking after yourself is also important lovely! Hopefully OH will be able to free some of your time when he is home.

Choc xx

Hey missy I'm feeling just the same as u completely unorganised and unmotivated. I've decided I'm not on a moan anymore just get my backside in gear lol I might start my own diary, watch this space xxx

missymoo81

Omg all these lurkers, I just thought it was me choc and bella!!!' I didn't realise so many were reading, gosh poor you I'm surprised you didnt all die of boredom. Nice to meet you JWil. And hi Choc, please steal away, the timetable still needs a bit of work to incorporate ll of the things that need doing in a week. Have been looking at fly lady for the pas couple of days and I love the structure and ideas but it's in the wrong order for me this week.

My studying has gone to pot as Roo was trying to help! So I'm sorting yet more wet washing!

missymoo81

Hey bells, lovely to see you the thing with trying to get jobs done is that there is always something else I can think of to do! I typed the last post a couple of hours a go but for don't reason it has only just appeared! I've just managed to get half an hour of text book reading done as roo had a nap, we're just sitting here whilst he wakes up watching cbeebies!
