Absolutely exhausting day.

I keep telling myself, get the house in order during the day and do my paperwork at night. But by the time night dawns I am exhausted.

The day for me ends at 4p.m. Then it's the children's time, it's either playing at the playground, going to the park, running to Tesco or Central or going to one play area or another. Then at 6p.m. it's time to get the kids fed with dinner. Then it's

- bath time with two raucaous screaming, screeching and hoppy children.
- lotion, powder, insect bites to attend to, and pyjamas to don.
- Bottled milk to prepare, antibiotics and other meds to be fed,
- Teeth brushed
- Story telling
- Tucking into bed

And then it's just a big sigh of relief that another day is over and once again time to myself.

But by that time I am run down ragged. Absolutely dog gone tired.

What to do? Tonight will be another night where paperwork will be left undone...tomorrow perhaps?

Tomorrow, I would like to box away all my uni text books to clear space on the bookshelves for my recipe books as I will begin my daily cooking of meals again. Then there are the children's CDs to organize. Following that I would like to reorganize my clothes, wardrobe and the linens.

Once that is done, I think I can say that spring cleaning has come to an end. I would like to get down to preparing:-

- my resume for Pan Asia and other International schools
- my business paperwork done for my venture with Hidayah
- my children's writing projects completed
- my blogs updated and running at full steam

Till then, I am just grateful and happy to have two wonderful children.
