2009-09-21 - 1:42 a.m. Insult to Injury This past week has been tough - G is in North America on an extended work/training thing (CT, NY, Toronto - he comes back this coming Saturday). I have been attempting to be in several places at once and keep all the plates spinning which has been difficult to say the least, as the lovely children have not been as cooperative with the lone parent as they might have been. The whole deal has been made worse by my co-leader's poorly timed two week holiday, which of course coincided with G's absence, and has left me with the first two weeks of Beavers alone with the boys. Yikes. I've survived the first one, but only barely. They are really horrible this year, and I will have to come up with foolproof fun to make it through. Then those the whole broadband fiasco. For some reason other than the fact that we have a very old, unpowerful p.o.s. Dell computer, the broadband has decided that this week is a good time to continuously and randomly go offline. The only way to fix it is to spend half and hour under the desk (not as much fun as it sounds) lifting and moving the chaos of wires and cables. Poor Ben has had a hard time this weekend with his homework and there has been much swearing at the machine. Now, I have just been awoken to the high pitched BEEP of the smoke alarm battery telling me that the battery is low. TONIGHT. At 1:45 am. Not funny. I am grumpy now. leave a note
