    Default Is this called a day off !!

    Well I've done my Tax Returns after finding excuses to put it off last weekend.

    I've done my Income and Expences form for County Hall (ed funding).

    I've sorted out what paperwork I need to keep and what I need to shred (household as well as work).

    Written letters for parents asking for September requirements.

    Put labels on playroom Table, Chairs, Window, Door etc (child showing great interest in letters).

    And in a mo I'm going grocery shopping ...... phew remind me again, what is a day off

    You sound busy!

    I suggest a nice sit down later after shopping and put your feet up

    Wow,
    that's a busy day! I hope you're giving yourself a huge pat on the back for being so productive . I'd be pushed to get that amount of stuff done over a fortnight

    I always thought it was just me that never seemed to have a "restfull" weekend...I thought it would get easier as my boys got older!!! I was so wrong...more washing,ironing and no sleep as i'm worried about what they're getting up to..The joys of motherhood!

    I have Thursday and Friday off at the moment and I spend both days rushing round like mad, just like a work day. Last Thursday I even scheduled a meeting to discuss training requirements for our CM group and I spend loads of weekends on training courses. This is certainly not a 9-5 job!

    I had today off. lots more dy offs to come.

    I have caught up with my accounts, cleared out my paperwork, filed everything that needs filing, done the housework, prepared the dinner and also went and collected my niece and nephew from school.

    I need a day off to get over my day off
