Well the Holidays come to an end here today and tomorrow all three of my darlings go back to school, my youngest for the first time.
So I really need to come up with a game plan - get some sort of career back on track maybe? It's hugely tempting to play house and get some tidying done and shopping and ironing and making and..........but - with a pending, gigantic, mortgage on the horizon, I think I have to firmly bite 'paid work' bullet.
Apart from all that - more importantly, I am going to miss my little girls, terribly, actually and the quietness I so often prayed for these last 7 weeks, may become a deafening reminder that I am all alone.

Oh, what a big day for you all! My boys are now both in secondary school for the first time (the little one only aged ten and a half!!!!), soI see what you mean. I will be very interested to see what you decide to do... I hope we'll be able to support you here in blogland!
ReplyDeleteChannel 4 at 10.35, you've have so got to watch it!
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well tomorrow, Jess starts the comp on friday and i'm dreading it, she's fine lol. At least I still have the little man at home though.

Hello Fleur!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for following my blog!
Your little princess is really beautiful!
I've got still a picture of my first day of school wearing a blue uniform, such lovely memories!
Best wishes! xxx
I know the feeling! my little ones went back to school and the childminder today! A few wobbly moments in the car after dropping them off...back now for cuddles though!
ReplyDeleteI had that very book when I was a child! And a Tufty club badge, too - but unfortunately it has not survived - I probably threw it all out in a teenage fit of sophistication! Great to discover your blog - and hope you find some work that suits. Good luck for tomorrow - my baby starts her last year at primary school - the time has gone all too quickly!

Good luck too poppy! My son went back to school today and my other son starts college next week, it only seems like yesterday that it was his first day at school.
ReplyDeleteI am off to the college tonight to have a look at what courses they do… good luck with whatever you decide to do.

I had a great Tufty hanky, how I've wanted to find that again over the years as I loved Tufty club.
ReplyDeleteSchool came a bit earlier for you. We're back on Monday here. Hope the first day went well for all of you. Spend a few days enjoying you time before thinking about the job. It'll come soon enough and then you'll wish you had I bet. So the mortgage is looking probable. Scary and exciting too Fleur.
