You must have needed the sleep then @Zoe7
A pj day sounds like a great idea.
Done 2 loads of washing, food shopping, strawberry picking and looked after H.
Time for a rest me thinks 😁

Definitely needed it @Snowie Have barely slept all week and can't continue to function like that.
Have done the washing here too - did that last night and pegged it out this morning so it should be just about dry. You have achieved a fair bit today Hon. How is H going?

You must have needed it then @Zoe7 if you haven't slept much of the week.
H is going ok. Have him set up on the couch at the moment. He is an easy patient, just have to feed him every so often!!
Have you got much work to do this weekend?

haha @Snowie H sounds like a cat - sleeps all day and only needs to be fed lol
Yeah a lot this weekend. Need to have my Art reports done so I can concentrate on the class ones over the next couple of weeks. Also have the usual planning but have to have extra done for our meeting on Monday ....not excited about that as you could imagine ![]()
Also have a lot of the kids' work to organise so that doesn't get out of control before the end of the year. We do not have the space to do it all at school or to store it so have set up a large table at my place to do that bit by bit. I know the prep classes have organised a portfolio for their kids for next year so that will help. Need to make sure all the classes have them though -and space to store things ...which is hard because we are also going to lose the library to allow for 2 additional classes next year ....no space anywhere for anything at the moment ![]()

hehe @Zoe7
As long as he is fed, watered and pain killers kept up he is content!!!
I imagine you are not excited hun! Reports are so draining and take up so much of our time hun.
Hopefully you can get some 'me' time over the weekend too hun so you don't go back to work exhausted on Monday.

At this stage @Snowie I don't think I will get much done today - just too exhausted. I have eaten and will likely sleep again soon. I am both tired and achey so rest is still very much needed. Going to curl up on the couch with Tobes before it is their dinner time then reasses then how I am feeling and what I can realistically do.

Curling up on the couch with Tobes sounds good to me @Zoe7 Your body and brain must be telling you that you still need to rest. Sometimes we just have to put ourselves first instead of our work.
Take care of you hun 💜💜

Yes @Snowie and I think I have well and truly reached that limit. Just slept for an hour - think I was asleep before I even layed down - and would probably still been asleep if it wasn't for feeding time at the zoo lol Drama again giving Cat her tablets - Toby did notl like me carrying her to the bedroom so they were both making noise - managed to get them down at her bowl but not without some scratches and my hand hurting
Am going to have to feed Toby first and lock him out of the bedroom tomorrow because it stresses both Cat and myself - see if that works 👍

I was asleep within minutes of laying on the couch today too.
😭 Your hand @Zoe7 xxx❣️

I know @Anastasia - just when I was feeling I could use it as usual again
I knocked it at work earlier in the week and it really hurt so have been extra careful since - now this
I honestly feel like I am falling apart 😥
