Disappearing hours.

Being two ppl on twitter appears to have used up more than twice the time today, which I found peculiar. The challenge of building up a twitter account for a specific purpose stretched my brain in odd ways too; I’m tweeting for our family business, Colneis technology (business websites for £150 plus hosting), as well as trying to work out other marketing strategies.

Along with that there was swimming for smallest – I considered keeping her off as she seemed a bit coldy, but when I said as much she was heartbroken, so I took her in the end. Small missed his session though, as it’s hard to do endurance swims when you’re coughing and spluttering. Even Tigerboy seems a little under the weather, having napped twice today for several hours. Am hoping that there will still be some sleep tonight.

There was still time for maths, isn’t there always? Operations on number. Small had a look at a junior science book from galore park but didn’t come to any conclusion as to suitability (I am dissatisfied with the Carol Vorderman Science made easy books, they seem to me to be taking the easy bit a bit too far.)

And during an unusually mammoth day time feed, I started heart shaped bruise by Tanya Byrne. Really good. Impressively so. Hope to find chance to finish it tomorrow.

Now I’m hoping to sleep off my foul temper with the aid of some ibuprofen to polish off the accompanying headache. I really didn’t ought to be in such a bad mood. Maybe it’s the ever increasing todo list that is doing it to me. Or the lack of marketing success so far.

Tomorrow is another day. And not nearly enough minutes away.
