Autumn stress, family and haunting libraries...
So.... I had a bit of a breakdown this week. There's just so much going on right before Christmas... And then there's Christmas right after that. :-P
And then there's the fact with our working hours... I work, officially, from 8am to 4:30pm. peting73 works from 6am to 15pm (and sneaks off a bit earlier on Fridays...).
Add to that, that I have two bussrides that takes 30-40 mins what with waiting times when I change busses...
All in all it makes sure I feel constant guilt for coming home so late, around 5pm or a little bit after. Alexandra goes to bed at 7pm... So I see her for two hours every afternoon during workdays. If I'm lucky. So it's no wonder I feel constantly guilty over it. :-/
Work? Oh yeah, work... So so so much to do. It's crazy how short the school term is during the autumn. From August to December. Sounds long? It's not. It's really really not. :-P
Next week it's the one week the school is off for the kids and teens during the autumn. I had planned to get more done at work before next week, but alas. I did the minimum of what I needed to get done though. *shrug*
I will though have A LOT of fun next week! Because while the kids and teens relax or make mischief, I will go on a ghost-tour!
Last year I turned one of the rooms in the basement in the closest library in to a haunted room. And was in there... haunting. X-D As a ghost, using the theatre makeup I use when LARPing and crazy contacts. It was a SUCCESS!
So this year I got asked by more libraries to do the same thing with them!
Meaning the whole next week... I'll get to dress up and scare kids... During working hours! WIN-WIN!!!
