Empty room

My hort class has walked out. In the nicest possible way, but they are certainly not here! I have to Cfess I am not doing anything about it. I have a class of three, none of whom have enough work skills to get level 2 credits. So they make approximately the same amount of progress when they are out of class as they do in. This way I have the time to myself. Time to update the blog.

This weekend is shaping up to be one where I get almost nothing done in the way of house work. R has gone up to Hlton to a Cference for American Field Scholars, and won't be back till Sunday night. A has been dumped by her Rian boyfriend, and is planning a girls night out on SAturday to cheer up a bit. I have asked she goes over just before the boys go to bed so I don't have too much time doing the solo mum thing without some support. I really like having another semi-adult in the house when R is gone. It is not that she has any authority with the boys, but I do feel like I have some company to talk to (and drink beer with).

But the beer drinking is being firmly limited to the Csumption of what is in the house. We have a very serious money drought. We need to do some very serious budgeting, belt-tightening and general battening down of the cheque-book.
