Feeling quite overwhelmed, such a busy time helping my son, study- 2 courses though one ends next week- and working. Waking at 4 am every day doesn't help, I never feel rested. Very anxious about my son, who does not appear to have done anything to find a new home...

Take the time out you need, lest you overload that donkey.

My son and I are meant to meet tomorrow morning, go look at a couple of properties. I'm doing a lot of the back up stuff (or organizing someone else to) and happy with that role and I think it's helping him not get overwhelmed.

I was feeling overwhelmed with a backlog of work and a painful foot, but yesterday and today I caught up on most things and I've offloaded my foot best I can. So the donkey is neatly loaded and ready to set off again...maybe that's what I need- horseshoes!

Quite a few of my clients have not paid recently, so I sent out a bunch of reminders. My son's generosity means I don't need to worry. I've inputted most of my tax forms, ahead of time for once.

The end of life course has begun, and apart from the final test the globalization course is completed.
