The day when my youngest lad marched off to school for his first full-day, brimming with excitement for the summer term that lies ahead and proudly clutching his storybox that he'd made over the weekend.
By contrast, his older brother had the air of a veteran schoolboy, running through the school gates, handing his own storybox over to me so that he could run faster.
The free spirit of youth running ahead, while I sauntered behind, trying to make sense of what's expected of me now.
I have a good life. So what do I want to make of it now the children are both at school. What more can I do nurture my family and what else can I do to nurture my own passions?
As I arrived home my well-suited husband was just leaving for work. The kiss that he gave me came with a cheeky grin.
"Well, you've got no excuse for not getting the house sorted now." he smiled.
"But I've got a few things to organise first." I replied.
.....Not least, a few things to help save the world.
So there's no getting away from it. I really need a plan because when I last looked, I just had a few blogs. Today, I've not only got the blogs, I've got a few collaborations under way, including The Zero Waste Checkout and a steady stream of local radio "appearances". I've also got my book to finish and find a new publisher too. And did I also mention we've also got chickens?
And er... we've also been planting up a small vegetable garden, both indoors and out! Indeed the trays of tomatoes on my worktops bring a whole new meaning to kitchen gardening.
So, I've got no excuse for getting the house sorted eh!
With all these distractions, it looks like I'm going to need to juggle more than ever! No wonder I got the kids ready for school yesterday, only to find out it was a staff training day.
Oh hum! At least we got to stay home for longer and make chocolate cake. Impromptu but nice!
So, I really do need to pull up my socks if I'm ever going to stay sane. I AM going to write a plan today, but not until I've sorted out the laundry!

13 Welcome Distractions:
Hi Karen, I also have these fits and starts where I make a list of things to do then get way-layed by looking for something on the computer and before you know it the boys are back through the door and I've done nothing off the list.
I do work lunchtimes at DS2 school and will continue to do so once he goes up to Secondary in Sept.
In my mind I can see how I want a room to look once its sorted/decorated but its actually getting it done.
That really made me laugh; getting the kids ready for school and it was a training day....that's the sort of thing I'd do. Not that I'm eager to be shot of them of course....!
LOL Maisie - I think we must be twins separated at birth. I can't believe a whole morning's gone already. I wonder what this place will look like when it's fully decorated. Good luck with juggle all yours. Time to get off the computer and get back to the laundry now... ;-D
Hi Rebel Mother - "of course" (hee hee). Although it does look that way when they're all dressed with nowhere to go ;-D. Welcome to the site, great to see you and while I juggle the pants, I'll pop over for a visit.
So pleased to hear you have a ne publisher. That's wonderful news!
Good luck with the list making and getting the house in order. My "babies" have been at school fulltime for 2 years and I'm still working on it! LOL Apparently I'm also easily distracted:)
good luck with all!!!
My youngest starts school in September. I AM VERY SAD (and happy at the same time). Mostly sad though. She is very excited, I just feel a loss and one step closer to the grays.
Before you know it it'll be the final week of primary school (as it is for Sally) and that does bring lots of tears!
There's no way you have time to sort the house out..one word - cleaner! If Husband says no just do thw cleaning really badly for a few months. Start today, you'll be set by september...
Makes me feel so much better to hear this.
I am totally less than average when it comes to housekeeping. Our laundry mountain once got so big we couldn't get into the kitchen. Which was probably a blessing as this meant the husband couldn't see the tower of dirty plates in the sink.
My solution was to move to Dubai and get a maid. Some may call this mode of action a bit radical but hell, it's working out brilliantly. Who knew that a steady supply of ironed and folded underwear could make life so much more pleasurable?
But laundry aside, you still manage to whip up a chocolate cake at short notice so I would hazard that you're more of a whizz than you're giving yourself credit for!
