Sounds good to me!
I don't have all my term dates yet, but I do have a "mums academic diary" for the next year. It has one page for me and the opposite for the children. I use one this year and it's great for getting all our appointments and activities in.
I've also only got six more working days before I "retire" from financeBossymoo

Was out until the early hours as mum and I and our ither sis and bil were visiting my little sis, her birthday, usually celebrated with a meal out but not possible this year. We admired her wig and her fringe to tuck under a hat and all had a go at scarf tying. Second chemo next week, she's had some "ill" days but is brimming with PMA.
Did her ironing.
Today there are jobs to do so I shall get up shortly.

Can't procrastinate any more. This laptop is hopeless at doing anything other than word processing. I'm going to go hang this washing out and get on with the fridge so I can get my list written while I wait for my phone to charge. :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Valli, glad to hear that there's lots of PMA. Thoughts are with you and your family at the moment. Also CY and the gang.
So far today I have washed my hair and had a quick shower, got the packed lunch ready for my trip out soon, made lasagne for tonight's tea, hoovered/swept/mopped through, watered the plants and got the first of two washloads in the machine.Spend less now, work less later.0
