Re: not coping

It's mainly the kids school uniforms that have to be ironed @outlander The rest I don't bother with.

It must be hard to have a sleep schedule especially when you works nights. I get tired enough and I don't have to work shifts!

Re: not coping

Thats a long day @outlander, especially if you have to get up to do the school runs.

I hope you can fit in some 'me' time in amongst all the chaos.

Hopefully D will get her license in a few weeks and she can drive her and her brother to school!

Going to head to bed now. Thanks for the chat and keeping me company. It hasn't been the best of days so the company has helped a lot. Hoping you can get to bed early tonight too.
