I lost my "Organised person" title last night. We were down collecting the boat for an event at the weekend and were talking to someone in DD's class, I asked was he looking forward to school tomorrow (as in today, Friday) - and he said it was only OK being back today, how did DD enjoy her day off?!!
We had ALL taken it for granted she was back on 1st this year, but they weren't......
morto! DH was in stitches at it (not that he knew either - and he gets all the emails as well!). DD thought it was hilarious - luckily - but I suspect this will go down in her history of "things to remind silly mummy of" on numerous occasions.
After that mortification, and getting DD actually sorted for school, I was not fit for another night of sorting, so I had a glass of wine and laughed at QI instead. But I have made a decent dent into the study this week (swopped weeks with outdoors - but I need at least 4 more nights in there!). I won't get there this weekend as the event is away (7am start tomorrow!! and home late on Sunday night).
One corner done is the giftwrapping pile - so I have got rid of bits I won't use, and it is now lovely and neat again. So it will be much easier to do any wrapping. And I have plenty of birthday wrapping (especially for boys), but will need another couple of rolls for Christmas (probably one lot of 3for2 in M&S, if they have any nice ones - the grid on the back really does help with neatness in cutting!!).
