Sorry I haven't blogged for a while- a) have had trouble signing in & b) had a bit of an eventful week last week.
It's hard to know where to start but perhaps I'll do it starting from the Saturday before last which is when we went to a barbecue some friends held for people aged 40-60. This was a pleasant evening (although there was torrential rain half way through). It was also nice to be with people more my own age rather than being surrounded by glamorous young mums whose idea of being overweight is only just being able to squeeze into their size 8 jeans. (Not that I don't enjoy their company,it's just that sometimes, well, you know...)
The thing was though that the other women I spoke to had got beyond the young children stage & they had careers. So it was like:
'I'm deputy head of a girl's school, what do you do?'
'Er...'
This made me think about my life and how I spend my time. Sometimes it's so easy to just spend my time picking up other people's socks or wasting time just surfing the net looking up stupid stuff. I'm determined to try & focus on some of the things I really want to be doing & make sure I set aside time for them.Perhaps I should get J to pick up his own socks.
Anyway,watch this space.
