My dm has taken ds for the day. "Great" I thought, "I'll get some jobs done, read my book. Bit of me time" I am soooo bored! I have done 3 loads of washing, fixed the washer, made some pasta. Now I am eating custard, polishing off the chocolate spread and watching True Movies. He started school a few weeks ago and now I have too much free time! I am job hunting to the extreme (and have an interview next week woo!) But I am going mad! Tried to meet up with friends today but no one likes me!! (Or they were busy or working or whatever lol) So AIBU and petulant and really should just enjoy it?!

Go buy some snowdrop bulbs and talk to them while planting them. By the time the spring comes and they flower, something beautiful will have come of this opportunity. That's what you have here, after all.

I know! Thing is, she might have him twice a month for two months, then not for another four (we still see her just not ver often with work and whatever) so why I don't make the most of it is beyond me! Anyhoo, interview tomorrow so fingers crossed I'm back working in a few weeks and I'll be sat gob smacked at someone else moaning about the same thing haha!

You could read, uninterrupted. Or mooch around the shops. Or dance around the living room, playing loud music that your kids would moan about and be embarrassed by. Or have a long bath.

Yesterday, I painted the woodwork in dd's room while she was at school. okay, this is not particularly interesting, but it's nice to get on with stuff sometimes, without little ones getting underfoot!
