Hi everyone,
Today is a work at work day. I'm leaving early with DD13 who will be at school for a 7am music rehearsal. After school today we have a parent teacher interview for DS9. Then it's leftovers or pita bread pizzas for dinner. Friday I'm off on a work trip for 8 days which I am looking forward to. The temptation is to pack way too much work to get done so I really need to prioritise and have clear what I am doing for the project there and what other work I need to do to keep up. After the trip it's school holidays and I want to be on top of the work so I can enjoy some time with the kids.
I hope you are feeling better Medusa and that headache has gone! Good to read your post yesterday Shellie - I hope things are going well. Waves to everyone else.
Wishing you all a great day!
Reminder to self:

Good Morning Elizabeth and all the Lovely Ladies to come
Well yesterday (of course) didn't go quite to plan. I felt 'drained'. Did get half the WHB done, after I broke a glass and had to clean up the shattered glass anyway. Also got a small load washed, dry and folded. WooHoo. Didn't tackle the ironing as I had planned, but that seems to be routine now (not tackling the ironing). I took DD17 to dance class in the afternoon, then had planned to do some groceries during the 1.5hr wait, instead I sat in the car park with a flat battery until DH and DMechanic arrived to rescue me. Now I know these things happen but seriously 8 days after a full service? ? "Not happy Jan" 
So today is DMum day. Groceries, Lunch and visit from Carer Co-ordinater. DMum was assessed as a 1-2 level of care and had not been allotted all time (so was accruing 'hours up' in case extra service like Dr visit or whatever was needed). Well now she has been assessed as 3-4 level (worse) and has applied for extra help. These '3-4 packages' are few and far between and we has been put on a list and basically we have to wait until others no longer need the 'package' for one to become available, they only have a limited number of these packages available. Well at this stage I feel she should at least be getting the hours her current package allows and that may help us get to the next level (whenever that happens). Also want to mention that not all staff are able to carry out all duties in allotted time (because they dither about), and therefore DMum is left some days without needs being met. Of course I already know that she will back her staff over a client (it's her job really) but we need to work this out.
Ok, going to fit some treadmill time in before I get ready to go. Then hoping my car will start so I can go get a new battery before I head to DMum's.
Wishing you all a Wonderful Wednesday xoxo

Hi Everyone
Where is your work trip to Elizabeth? Somewhere warm? Sorry to hear you’re feeling drained, Shellie. Hopefully winter is just about over! I too feel a bit lethargic. DS21, DH and I have all been coughing so much -Im over it!! Pain about the battery  Glad to hear DD is better Medusa, not long to school holidays now and the worst term is over!
Well DH has been on the compeer or phone ALL MORNING ggrrr. Its been raining here but its cleared a bit so he’s off to help at DD30s house with some plastering that involves taking some of the tiles of the roof???
Ive done nothing much the last 2 evenings after work. Just cook dinner, feed animals and dishes  . Im feeling pretty tired. We’ve cancelled Home Group for tonight, they could always meet at someone else’s if the want. The others all take a night of now and then but as its at our house we feel we can’t (except when away on holidays  )
Ive stripped and remade DS21s bed, sheets are in the dryer. Kitchen has been cleaned and even the sink is shiny. Ive cleaned one bathroom and paid a bill and filed papers.
Now I just have to go to the local shops, bring in bins and mail, feed chooks, collect eggs and scoop poop. I also want to vacuum, clean 2 bathrooms and cook dinner, clean up kitchen again, get my lunch ready for tomorrow and have an early night. A walk would be good but I think I’m feeling too tired.
Tomorrow is an early start with me having to leave home at 6.15am, so Im going to wash, dry and straighten my hair after dinner too. I doubt that ill post tomorrow
Have a Lovely Day, Lovely Ladies!! x x |
