Good morning @Snowie
yes we set mum up and came back home. I didn’t sleep the best last night, it was still rather windy and I kept waking up hearing the wind and wondering if market would get cancelled. It wasn’t though and it hasn’t been too bad since.
D starts back at school Tuesday. Pupil free day tomorrow. Mum also flys to tassie on Tuesday.
how are you today??

Not good about your sleep last night @Bow I'm sure you would have had to be up early to take your mum.
You have a busy Tuesday coming up. At least with D back at school you can enjoy some time to yourself and get back into the norm.
How long is your mum gone for? How do you feel about her going?

I didn’t have to get up quiet as early as I usually would going to market @Snowie i literally rolled out of bed and put some clothes on, a beanie and a puffer jacket and left. Didn’t need to look decent or pack anything. But it was still early! 6am. And I did hit snooze once!
its just a 10min drive too.
mums away for 2 and a bit weeks. My ED has been pretty loud about what it can do while mum is away, so will see how we go.
have offered to take mum to the airport instead of catching the train. The airport is a private station so it’s really expensive to get off at. And I’ll go to ikea too 🙂

I think it is easier to do things when others aren't around @Bow No one to check on us. I know for myself, the worst times is when no one else is home.
Please remember that you have us here too hon. Lean on us when things get tough. Thats one of the reasons why this forum exists.
Ohh I love Ikea too.
Better go get ready to take mum. Hope today goes ok hon. Will try and check in later tonight.

Hi @Snowie
holidays are all but over now! Back to school tomorrow.
market went ok yesterday. I did well, mum not so well. No market now till mid August. But I’ll make some stock for in the meantime.
I did a mock up of this that I’m going to sell for Father’s Day. This one took a bit of work. Few things I need to fix.
I seen the fill in pdoc this morning. It was ok. No changes or anything. But my SW did tell him that mum is going away. He asked me how I was feeling about that and I said I’m ok with it, but my ED is pretty loud and planning on what it can get away with. He said he will get the team to check in with me a bit more often.
think my SW is gonna be making sure I’m doing the right thing too 😩😩

Will wait for pic @Bow
Maybe the team and your SW checking in on you more often is a good thing. At least you will have the support there. Might keep your ED a little more quieter.
Enjoy the early school morning drives again!!
