Hi Everyone
As I have already said to some it is the Easter Holidays and I will be online less and then for an hour or so in the morning before my daughter gets up and then late at night when she is in bed.
I am using the holidays to 'catch up' with my daughter.
This was not planned it has happened because she said she felt I did not spend much time with her.
This is no ones fault, it is her first GCSE year and as we live rurally and the school day starts early she leaves for school at 7.45 - very early. She will then stay in town with friends who live there and do homework with them as only about three children of her age live in the village one is a boy and they are not her special friends.
Sometimes she does dance practise for her dance GCSE in the school hall after school and she does homework at home as well as keyboard lessons one evening. She is a very busy girl.
When we are home together and she is not doing her homework which is often after 8 pm in the evening.
I am on my computer, she on hers. Weekends the tired girl sleeps a lot.
So when the first day of the hols came I had not even considered what we would do and planned my usual day at the computer doing web design work and stuff for this site, mending a computer for someone and taking dogs for walk.
It was then she sort of said 'what about me?'
So except when she sees a friend I have promised to spend time with her this Easter.
Sorry about my unplanned break - I will be online before 10am and after 10pm some days
All the best
