    Thanks Buffy but what else would you call someone who sits in the hairdresser than discovers that they don't have a purse?

    Yesterday, for some unknown reason, I spent a lot of my time moping around and crying which was a waste of a visit to the hairdresser. Today, due to staff shortages, I am at the nightmare client. I then have 2 other major work tasks to get done plus a few others.

    I am fed up living and working in mess. While at the client, the office I use is being tidied. This is not healthy. I need to start looking at what I'm bringing away with me. I have never had so little time to prep.

    Today I am grateful for

    A: "Busy" :)
    B: "Normal" :D

    C: "Momentarily distracted" :cool:.



    Look after yourself INOD. Yes, I know you 'don't have the time' - but if your client asked you for an extra hour a day would you find it? Exactly :naughty:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Head down and batter on - but not a muppet, just distracted and busy. I'd do the same at the moment.

    You're definitely NOT a muppet! It's amazing how much you get done work wise in often very difficult circumstances so a little light headedness is bound to happen occasionally. I hope you're feeling a lot brighter tonight.
