My day will consist of...

Managing busy third sector organisation, whilst providing support to staff and others. Often it is hard to get break will will try to get out of the office at least 30 min. When I finish work I often go to shops to pick up food, make tea as soon as I am home, clean kitchen and load dishwasher. If husband is about he will help. I then study for a while and maybe watch some to or read.

I'll look after...

I have one 12 year old Son at home who is fairly independent and currently living in his cave of a room. I will attempt any meaningful interaction possible.

Study towards my degree, tidy house, laundry, take care of ageing dog, help out friends with their kids etc etc.
