Work-Life See-Saw


Aaagh - it's been a whole month since I posted anything - what is the world coming to? Well, I'll tell you, my work life balance has become seriously unbalanced that's what - I've got an impending audit at work and it has taken over my life! I am soooo sad. Once it's over I hope life can get back to a semblance of normality. It's a good job none of you can call on me because I couldn't let you over my threshold - my housekeeping skills are minimal anyway but even I can't stand this level of untidiness for much longer.

Needless to say, not much creativity going on here, I just managed to finish my Secret Santa Swap (sneak peek above). Posted a little bit late, but at least I finished it. To cap it all I've just dropped my camera on the floor and the catch that holds the battery compartment closed has broken off - rats!
Roll on the Christmas holidays, that's all I can say.

Hey! Good to see you. But Phew! I know what you mean, I had my audit a couple of months ago.
Hope all goes well.

Clare said...

Oh poor poor you. I hope it will get better once the audit is done and you can take some time out for yourself. By the sounds of things you are in big need of some Fiona Time.

*hug*

Glad you're okay - presumed it was work bigtime that was keeping you away - I'll second the roll on Christmas sentiment

Glad to hear you are alive and well. I assumed, like Anne, that you were really busy with work. Hope things settle down soon. TTFN

Glad things are OK with you, Fiona. Don't worry about the housework, just train the children not to write swear words in the dust! (Only kidding. As if they knew any swear words!)

Great colors-- hang in there---there will be a holiday at Christmas.

Libby said...

Glad to see you got a few moments to relax. Don't stress the holidays will happen and the audit will be over . . . just take a couple of minutes every day to put your feet up *s*

I dropped my camera a while back, and the battery door will no longer close. However, I just taped it shut with packing tape, and it works fine. Cheaper than getting a new camera!

Wow! Too busy! Hang in there! We will wait.

Andrea said...

Nice to see you back. I got fed up of seeing that pumpkin cake -lol ! Hope things settle back soon for you.

Sorry about your camera :(

Deep breaths! Maybe Santa will bring you a new camera? Hang in there -- you will get through this and things will return to normal!
