2. Nearly hit a man on his red moped yesterday in the city (sorry mate).
3. No clean uniform for my kids some mornings
4. No laundry done for 2 days
5. My bedroom is a mess
6. My bathroom is a mess
7. Went to a meeting on child behaviour and some of the stuff they said made me cross

9. Drink far too much coffee
10. Sleep far too little
