Sorry to say, my pledge of daily writing has been more than a little broken recently. It has been a couple of days since I last published on my toy soldiers blog and it was over a week since the post before that.
Part of that has to do with my wife working some crazy hours recently. Term time is over at the school at which she teaches, but that just means it is time for Summer School. Regular students have to audition to attend a course but, in the summer, the doors are more or less thrown open to all comers. Anyone who can pay, more or less, is able to attend a three week course in drama/singing/dancing. Its a fairly intense course for the students and it just about doubles my wife's teaching hours.
This, of course, leaves me at home with two small children. A challenge at any time, it gets worse when one is a baby who is going through teething and then gets a cold too. Oh, and refuses to eat all day and won't sleep all night ><
Stress-filled times at the White house then.
This then has left me little time for reading and writing. I have barely had any time to paint or exercise either. Usually I get about an hour in the morning to do something unrelated to babies and housework. Then it all kicks off...
The end is in sight though. Its the last week of Summer School and then we have a decent break, complete with overseas holiday. My wife has talked about doing some serious sleep training with the littlest monster in the house next week to try to get him back on track. And I should have more time to myself to think and plan and commit to the page.
Fingers crossed....
