10pm the night before back to school: am I the only one?

[PorridgeAgainAbney]

Fuckety fucksticks, WHY have I left it until tonight to fill in the Health Care Plan, consisting of 28,000 forms that have to be handwritten, with each box being so miniscule you can barely fit "see separate note" in it, and each form duplicating approx 75% of what was on the form you filled in last?

PLEASE tell me you are squinting like a mole trying to sew 200 name tapes, or emptying every cupboard in the house looking for a school tie...I'm not the only disgracefully disorganised slattern am I?

Try: 3 a.m., and finding DD still up, doing her 'holiday project', including fake diary.

Ah well.

Last night I got the: Oh by the way mum, we need padlocks for our lockers. Why didn't you get them?

Uh...because nobody bothered to tell me?
