    An 8 day week and a flexible half a person.

    When someone kindly subscribes to my newsletter, they receive a welcome email where I ask if there would be any useful articles that they would like to receive in a forthcoming edition.

    Today I received the best answer ever.  My thanks goes to Karen at Griffin Designs for giving me permission to publish it today.

    Thanks for your welcome email, Karen.

    “My answer to your question would be the same as to our Vicar recently when he asked me what I wanted for my birthday - an 8 day week!

    Or perhaps, how to employ that extra 1/2 person you needed last week but don't need this week.

    That is truly the conundrum for a homeworker whose kids are currently off school, and on top of that can only squeeze in 2 working days next week cos the two different schools have two different inset days and on top of that the sadistic teachers are on strike for a completely different day . . . . the stress of it all!

    Only joking!  Karen
