It's not easy, especially when you're waking up at 5:30 everyday. That makes everyone more tired. Hopefully their sleeping hours will be longer in the winter months...Hope you enjoy your days off. We'll have to keep trying, that's all we can do...Lovely flowers, by the way. xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208986782111545220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669321052517553257.post-68984271958692077332014-11-13T18:27:31.345+00:002014-11-13T18:27:31.345+00:00What a fantastic post.

And yes, last minute school requests for fancy dress drive me mad. Tomorrow, for Children in Need, Angus is supposed to go either in spots or something "bear like". We have neither, and I'm not going out to buy something specially, so I guess he's going in jeans and a t-shirt! xGillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669321052517553257.post-75131440225228699802014-11-12T23:22:03.608+00:002014-11-12T23:22:03.608+00:00Indeed, you are right.

I keep on trying, not sure that I am getting anywhere, but if I don't try, I definitely won't get there! xxAmy at love made my homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111180584250029433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669321052517553257.post-56490218245820565612014-11-12T21:03:16.446+00:002014-11-12T21:03:16.446+00:00Last minute costumes are an absolute horror aren&#...Last minute costumes are an absolute horror aren't they. As are the early starts. I try not to think about the December thing until December. I find the panic of finding it's less than three weeks away works wonders in motivating me. But I'd definitely buy a new notebook now. Just in case there is a run on them. Enjoy your days off.

I have been steadily working my way through my to do list this week, which has surprised me no end. I am the master of procrastination usually.<br />Leanne xxLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617604296746784414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669321052517553257.post-58160541531925380642014-11-12T16:56:49.441+00:002014-11-12T16:56:49.441+00:00Reading with little ones can be tedious.

James's first year teacher always said that if there is not a good time to do homework (and it happens!), then better not do it so that he wouldn't loose the joy of learning. We stick to this mantra and it works. I get impatient very quickly, particularly with James because he struggles so much. Counterproductive of course! But we are all just human 5:30 is very uncivilised, not even CBBees is on yet! I hope that the dark morning will keep the under the duvet a bit longer! Be kind to yourself! xxChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883091348839145603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669321052517553257.post-23685628050133680082014-11-12T14:41:06.682+00:002014-11-12T14:41:06.682+00:00I'm trying too.

To do and be lots of things: to the point where I daren't list it all down because that list would be just too overwhelming.<br />But yes, 5.30am is uncivilised. You're a better person than me for getting up so early and getting on with your day!<br />P.S. Buy a notebook, you know you want to ;)<br />S xSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038836502384520598noreply@blogger.com
