    Default Brain overload......!!!

    Is it just me that can not remember what I am supposed to be doing from one day to the next....?????

    My dd has started school today (I didn't cry, I have been too busy)

    I am now trying to work out my schedule for the next 8 weeks because I have a child leaving, a baby starting, a nursery pick up starting and an after schoolie starting, that is as well as my regular 4 under 5's part timers, me cutting down to 4 days in a couple of weeks so shifting children to different days, my dd starting school and having to rearrange regular hospital appointments for dd for days when I don't have 4 under 5 and 2reception schoolies...!!!!

    And take a deep breath..........
    I feel frazzled, no point to this thread really, I just needed to get it out

    I could have written your post myself. Every word of it except the cutting down to 4 days. I know exactly how you feel. (do we share a life )

    I know exactly how you feel , I'm pooped tonight.
    I'm lying in bed redy for Eastenders to start as I write.

    I've had4 EY kids yesterday one 8m old new starter. 3 kids today, two went home and I picked up 6 school children. Fed them, finished work and helped DS with his homework. hoovered as all the kids had bought grass inside. I've got to take DS to dentist about a brace tomorrow with two kids a tow. Dd is having an op on her ears and teeth so im trying to get the surgeons to communicate so they can be done at same time. She's got a PGL school trip for 5 days next week so I'm trying to buy/look at packing list.

    Thought what for tea? ...dominos pizza Yes!! No cooking tonight.

    I've got 4 on thurs and a 3 hr inspection on fri with two inspectors. By Friday night I'm going to be in bed by 6pm

    On the bright side Dh went to hamburg last week and bought 3 huge bottles of gin duty free..theyre £25 each in sainsburys, he got the lot for €33.
    I'll enjoy that on Friday night with tonic,lime and ice
    Time Out.. The perfect time for thinking about what you're going to destroy next.

    Sounds hectic - I have to write everything down now, if it's not in my diary it's not happening!

    Our school runs start tomorrow - cant say I'm looking forward to them
