    Thanks KC.

    I just have no resources left.

    Thats what I'm concerned about, I can *hear* it. Newgirly puts it very succinctly:

    Then half term has come at the right time - you need a good quiet time to relax and rebuild, I hope you're going to give yourself that.

  • I'll try.

    Quiet day today, some washing, booked hair appointments, arranged to view a horse.

    Tomorrow we are walking on moor with friends and then to theirs for lunch which is a treat.

    Hope half term refreshes you.

  • Thanks Apple. You too!
  • Enjoy your half term, you really do sound as if you are in need of a rest, although with young children I bet it is not that restful.

    A walk on the moors is always good for re-energising and blowing out the cobwebs!
