    The working week has come to a close again. Only 14 more working days until the long awaited holiday. I can feel the need for a wind down now , the dark nights make you want to do zero. I am hoping today to get outside in the daylight as I haven't been outside all week in the day. This is one of the downsides of working compressed hours.

    Today is DGC day as ever, I have some duties tonight getting DGS to a party after school . I hope it works out ok. Tomorrow my DGD is 2 , it's gone very fast .

    My big to do list is still a big to do list , so I intend trying to get it down this weekend. Have started with a cold , so fingers crossed it stays as that and nothing more .

    Best get ready for the day ahead.

    A pay rise would mean you could pay off the debt quicker too :).

    Is it really only two weeks until Australia?

    Today DGD is 2 , she loves her cot and highchair gran has got her. Later on she is having a family party with fireworks. I am taking DGS to his swimming lesson shortly.

    The doctor has given some antibiotics for a UTI and I am convinced they are the worst thing ever. I had them when I ill earlier in the year as well. As our doctors was so busy yesterday no appointments the doctor did a quick consultation on the phone for which I was extremely grateful. I forgot to ask what she had prescribed, if I had known I would have asked her for different ones. Anyway three taken and three to go.

    My list is my aim for tomorrow, I have done some of it last night. Managed the cleaning today , tomorrow shopping.

    Need to get ready to go out now .
