Focussing on the positives-

[Determined]

Still not much sleep here @soul, we didnt give him a daytime nap today so hoping for better luck tonight.

All going to plan we will have a family outing tomorrow afternoon, go for a drive to the beach or something (weather permitting) today has been a sleepy day here. I  was suposed to be working on uni stuff but no motivation.

Positive for today..

Had a good talk to my mum tonight, seems she is over her sulks with me. That's a relief because I don't do conflict very well. 

Spoke to darlings mum also and they are hoping to be home this time next week. I thought they were going to be gone for much longer than that so again a big relief to have their help again.

Glad the family stuff is going okay for you with regards to the oldies. Enjoy your outing tomorrow @Determined.

No complaints @Former-Member, focusing on the positives no matter how elusive they may seem.  Counting down for the end of semester and some me time. 

+'s =  House sitting crisis averted (for now) and in-laws expected back on the weekend. (I was expecting them to be gone for another week or more). Will be nice to have the extra help with the little people again.

Positive for today

Yseterdays little shower of rain produced over 70mm in under 2 hours resulting in one of our tanks flowing over and our big tank at about 60% 😆

Big tank should have a lot more but the sieve was silted up from the pipes being flushed out 😐  either way we are well and truly off water restrictions in the determined house. If forecast is correct big tank should be full by end of next week which gives us ~ 6 months supply with minimal rain.

Good news Bro, one less worry for you.
Not having 2 legged bambinos, the school situation is well out of my understanding @Determined but do remember you in relation to this.

[Determined]

Thanks @Former-Member

No news on the school front. 

Reluctant to make a pest of myself and start calling and asking questions but I may need to. If only to get a date for a decision either way.

Good news about the water @Determined. I take these things for granted living in the city.

Hope you and the family enjoy the weekend. No current crisis or just not ones you're telling us about??

[Determined]

Weekend of work for me @soul unfortunately. Finding it hard to to motivate or concentrate at the moment which is a big problem. I know what needs to be done but getting it on paper is just not happening.

No current crisis other than the usual day to day struggles. Main crisis with that is I don't have the capacity to deal with it at the moment. Occured to me yesterday for the first time I have been hiding in my room a lot and not really interacting with the family. I will have to work on that.

How are things for you, counting down for the big adventure?
