Many, many apologies to you all for going missing this week. It's that time of year again when I'm juggling my regular job with my second job of marking exam papers. Apparently this means I still have to do all the other stuff as well - although hub has kindly offered to wash up after dinner during the marking period. Alas his kindness does not extend to other housework tasks.
Anyway, after working during the day, marking in the evening and fitting in all the other stuff like endless taxiing of children to their activities, my brain turns to mush and I become Zombie Jen, unable to string together a coherent sentence and therefore unable to write any reviews. As if that isn't bad enough, I'm barely getting any reading time either. So far, since Saturday I've read 3 short stories and 2/3 of a novella. Not good. Especially when that has barely covered my commitments to BER and Wave's site.
Enough moaning from me! This post is just to excuse my very bad blogging behaviour, to assure you that I haven't forgotten you - even if I'm not posting comments on your blogs, I'm still reading the posts - and to make you aware that things might be a little thin on the ground for the next couple of weeks until I get back into my stride.
Thanks for your patience, folks :).
May the marking be relatively painless!
ReplyDeleteDon't fret Hon. BER can wait. When you have real life stuff it takes priority. Good luck with coping until it moves on.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with it all, Jen! Hope it goes as smoothly as possible :)

Chris: The live marking is fine. It's the marking checks that I find stressful!
ReplyDeleteTam: You're a star! Hopefully things will get better next week.
Anne: Thanks! :)
