Below Zero

I've been looking after a toddler over the last 7 days and tomorrow is my last day. I'm exhausted beyond belief and in my 'spare time' I can't muster an email or tick off more than one paltry to-do. So yes, not keen on having babies any time soon. There's also the child-raising impediment of going financially under, and that feels like being on a torture rack that's getting wound out a bit further every day.

It's nearing the end of the year and I usually finish with a bang, fire on all cylinders right up to Christmas Day. But not this year, I'm done, cooked, hoping for a blessed miracle to get me across the line.

Ho ho ho.
