evening all
another busy day so no time to catch up on the posts. busy day for me tomorrow as i ahve to leave the house at 6.30 to go to birmingham with work. will try and catch up properly at the end of the week when i've finished working til after the wedding.
hugs to all xMum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -
aarrghhh look at the time again ....
well a good day, went into work and did sod all as they had locked my account so I couldn't log on and so couldn;t do anything. They have agreed to the reduction in hours I asked for to go back on, and the change in days - I want to do school hours only on 3 days and they said yes - hurray!!! And also read a bit of yesterday's thread but alas did not get as far as today.
Got a bit of flying done whilst hubby reading kids' bedtime stories, and - big relief - got all the Christmas thankyous done tonight.
And wow - its actually working this week. I think a combination of only selecting a few bits of each day, doing a few bits when hubs does kids bath, and "Dusty's Week" style list with one or two selected jobs each evening, is really helping me kep on top of it.
Right off to bed might try and catch up a bit more again tomorrow!
