Stop the world, I want to get off

OK, maybe that's a bit extreme. Perhaps it should be "Stop the world, I want some time off".

It's been another hectic week at work, and with the end of the financial year and all that entails, the next couple of weeks will probably be even busier. So I could do with a bit of a breather at the weekends, but that appears to be out of the question.

Tonight I've been doing yoof leader type of stuff, which has been great (and I will blog more about yoof-related matters soon, hopefully). Tomorrow Housemate #1 is moving out ahead of her wedding next weekend, and a new replacement housemate is moving in; meanwhile, my parents are coming up to visit for the day, which will be great - we're hoping to go to the Botanical Gardens, all being well. And then on Sunday, a friend who I haven't seen in three or four years is coming to Brum and staying overnight for an interview on Monday, so I'm going to meet up with her and catch up on old times. All good stuff, of course, but with the whole weekend more or less filled up, I can see myself going back to work on Monday feeling knackered.

Still, if I can get through that, Easter promises a four-day weekend, including wedding. Currently I have a lot to organise - like how to get there and back, and whether it will necessitate an overnight stay, and if so where - but I'm sure it will come together. Or, knowing me, that I'll blag it at the last minute.
