After many years as a full time worker, followed by a botched attempt at resigning, I am now working part-time.
3 days in the office and 1 day at home and 12 weeks holiday a year. My mum has been ill recently so all my 'days off' have been used up flying up to Scotland, so today was my first proper day off!
It was fab! Dropped the children off at school, went to Borders for a coffee and to pick up some holiday books, off to TK Maxx to pick up last minute ski stuff, M&S for sports bras (for skiing) then home to lovely clean house (cleaner had been in today). Sat with a cup of coffee until nanny brought the children home from school, helped with homework and spent an hour or so on here while she fed them, and have just despatched her off home early and am bumming around on here while children play!
And I missed the Monday morning blues too
I know this is a smugtastic post, but humour me - it has been a long time coming
