I really need to get FLYing properly too. I am very lucky to have a bit of a house fairy - PIL look after the boys 3 days a week and MIL also cooks for us those nights and does washing and ironing (bless her). And I have a cleaner once a fortnight. But with working ft, it is easy to get out of control and I haven't been able to get any routines going properly yet.

I was going to ask about the control journal too. My problem is that I forget what needs to be done - I am usually so tired by the time I get home, then have to rush to get T fed and to bed as he is always starving and tired. Then if J isn't too tired I'll play with him for a while before he goes to bed. And then I collapse. And the mornings - well - let's just say rush, rush, rush. Maybe I need to try it and see.

Also, I was wondering if anyone had tried the Office in a Bag concept? I think that would help me to not forget to pay bills etc, and would make it easier to make use of my "downtime" at work. But then, maybe I'd just forget to take it with me and the bills would sit in it unpaid. I don't know, maybe I should try that and see too.

My first thing is I have listed 8 jobs I want to do over the long weekend. But by Friday I am sure it will be longer. I'm going to try doing each in 15min chunks and see how I go. Wish me luck!!
