Long weeks - a confession

[cfred]

I've had times like this as well. Kids can be challenging. Honestly, do what you want during the day. We always do our themes on the fly. This is mostly so I can do what I feel like doing with them on any given day, without being tied to anything. Today, because we're having our first snowfall and I'm feeling the Christmas fuzzies, we're going to make shortbread cookies. Our theme is 'colours' so bring on the sprinkles!

For your own personal sanity, getting out is a fab idea! I walked 6km, 5 nights per week with a neighbour. That was my saving grace for about 10 years. For both of us, it was our 1 hour to vent, swear, bitch, moan, complain and, on the odd occasion, revel in a success. She is the one person who it was okay to say things in front of that really, just shouldn't be said....but sometimes you've gotta! I stayed fit, got the emotional and stress release I needed and usually felt better for it. They do say that physical exercise is essential to physical and emotional well being. I certainly found it very, very beneficial.

Hope you feel better soon
