Hi Judy and Elasti and those to come,
Today is a work day. I couldn't sleep last night so did a good clean of the kitchen. Having the electrician yesterday morning gave me a boost - 3 lights repaired, my office light improved (he put an awesome bulb in it - must check when it blows so I replace it the same), and two new power points. The phone still isn't working, but I will work from home tomorrow and phone the phone/internet carrier, but the electrician gave me the name of someone who will repair the line inside the house cheaper than the providers well and without the wait. So little jobs that were hanging over me have started to get done.
Work is ok, but very busy and I just need to keep my equilibrium amongst it all. I stayed late for a meeting yesterday and needed to make sure my DD12 knew when and where I was picking her up. Now I know on the professional scale, texting is not great, but I really felt that sorting DD was a priority. But I learnt that next time I will just leave the meeting rather than putting myself in a position for someone to have a go at me. People make so many assumptions and are quick to put other people down (particularly those younger than themselves) - I am very professional, would not check Facebook or anything else, just making sure DD had somewhere safe to wait until 5pm. Lesson learnt! And reminder to me not to make assumptions and be agist with other people.
Dinner is homemade hamburgers in honour of the State of Origin - it's a bit of a tradition in our household. DH is picking up the kids and I've just sent him the ingredients to buy. My other goal for home jobs today is to tidy my desk as I will be working from home tomorrow, have a heap of small jobs to do in between, so want to be really productive. It will also be a good opportunity to get started with the washing.
Wishing you all a great day!

Good Morning Judy, Elasti and Elizabeth
I am feeling a tiny bit better had a 2 hour nap during the day, and went to bed early so got a lot of rest.
Today is bible study and am not sure what else I will get done
Have a great day

Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Yesterday was very productive. WHB - Done, Towels and Bathmats wash - Done, Grocery shop while DD17 danced - Done, Bought new pillows - Done, Made a batch of Chicken Soup for sick (got a cold) DD21 - Done (finished at midnight), Sink Shiny - Done. All in All a productive day.
Today DMum has a list for me. I will be stripping her bed and bringing home the woolrest and under blanket to wash. Groceries. Fix recliner chair. Clean up after lunch. Chemist shop. Bills. Help put 'things' back in place after the painter was there end of last week. And whatever else she can think of.
Judy, enjoy DGD (I know you always do)
Elasti, I hope you have better luck than me getting your bathmats dry, mine are so thick they take 2 good days to dry.
Elizabeth, people are dumb. Anyone with kids would assume that a mother texting at around school pick up time WOULD be checking on their kids. As long as you make this clear to your boss, then I say 'stuff' the rest of them. You are doing amazing
Ok, time to get moving. Wishing you all a Wonderful Wednesday xoxo

Nice and busy in here today. Good to see DH is helping out Elasti- mmm pizza! Elizabeth, I guess too many people are looking at phones nowadays when in meetings or socializing with friends. My kids are often on the phone when we are sitting around after dinner- not during dinner tho. And even when the extended family all get together the younger ones check phones all the time- my DM gets so cross- lol. Glad you are feeling better too Medusa! Glad to hear you had a productive day Shellie and that today you can help out your DM My plans have changed a little as DH is now on afternoon shift. I thought DGD was coming at 2 but its now 12.20 (maybe I misunderstood and the meeting was at 2-oh well) I feel Im losing my ‘at home’ time as Im going to visit DM on Friday and Saturday DH has strongly requested i help out at the rental place Ok I must get into WHB now so its done before DGD comes
Have a Good One Ladies! x x
