Ok folks here we go again!

Totally agree, needtoknow

Luckily I only work the first one all day. Tomorrow is just the afternoon & I don't work any others through the year. So I'm usually off with my youngest is which is handy.

Hitting that shift key probably slowed you down.

Tough luck, but thems the breaks on the song lyrics thread. You snooze, you lose!

@CoffeeBeansGalore- hope you can fit the kids in around this thread... if not you might have to jack it in... school of course!

Don't tempt me!

@Honeyroar I know, the holidays just flew by. It's been a difficult couple of years with staff changes & various issues. I used to really enjoy my job but it's more "grit your teeth & get on with it" at the moment. I know I've been lucky to have a job to go back to. I just have to vent at times!

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me around

Funny, but it seems I always wind up here with you
Nice to know somebody loves me

But she's not afraid to die, the people all call her Alaska
Between worlds so the people ask her 'cause it's all in her mine
It's all in her mind

Would it be enough for your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried?

Workin' so hard like a soldier
Can't afford a thing on TV
Deep in my heart I'm a warrior
Can't get food for them kid, good God

And now that we've come
To the end of our rainbow
