1. I went back into the world of work today. A study day..one of those update days where they tell you lots of things you already know and have heard over and over again..such fun! I found myself exhausted by the sheer amount of time and energy i had to put into working out who was going to have the kids while i was at work. Nights might be an uphill struggle sometimes but the huge benefit is that when the kiddies are sleeping i dont have to worry about who is looking after them...
2. It felt like i have never been away :( (from work that is)
3. Isaac developed a chest infection and ended up on antibiotics, he was off school monday and today but seems on the mend. He just about managed to get through his party on sunday and then fell asleep in the early evening.
4. We have some new funky radiators thanks to my dad and ben this weekend. One of those lovely up the wall ones to give us a bit more space. The kids are fighting over who gets to stand against it. Downstairs it is warm:)
5. The phone rang at way past 11pm the other night! Gave us a bit of a fright but then when it was a chap calling from a teaching agency in New Zealand..i thought probably better get used to that! Not all late night calls are an emergency when you have people phoning from different time zones!
6. Poppy is working hard to be the most contrary lady of the bunch these days. Wow-wee she is hard work at the moment. Taking deep breaths....
7. I need more sleep. its official and a little ironic as i have to work all night tomorrow night..ha
8. There is a pile of books and magazines by the side of my bed...all i do is move them around, tidy them up and glance and the covers now and again.before i inevitably fall asleep..do people who have small kids ever finish a book?
9. I made a a cake for Isaac's birthday, it came out quite well i think. My mum helped me do the cars..it took us about 2-3 hours including the clean up..shame we can't charge an hourly rate for that!
and yes i know it is in fact not tuesday but wednesday..but i fell asleep before i could post last night!
;p
keep going beautiful lady, there's nothing harder than being a working mum, love you loads x
