I can't feel my legs....honestly they've gone kind of numb from all the driving I 've done today. I drive a 'stick' as known in the US and over here its a manual. More like manual labour, my legs don't stop moving and working when I drive - its in with the clutch, out with it, over and over,stopping and starting, weaving in and out of the traffic.
DH is working unusual hours all day so that means that I get to be mum and dad and taxi driver all day! Yay! arent I lucky, I must drawn the short straw.
This morning the driving commenced shortly after 8 am, with taking DD junior to orchestra prac., dropping her off, and going straight to teaching my class. Somewhere along the way I forgot to sit down, and stood to teach my students. Raced back to pick DD up, home for a quick lunch and then across to the other side of town for DD's music lesson. Sat and waited in the car, ate a mars bar, wanted to see if their slogan is true to its word - ' a mars a day helps you work rest and play'. They don't say anything about driving though?
Home again. Then off to the Mc'd's Drive though, and home. Drove car into garage, switched off the engine and breathed a huge sigh of relief.
My legs are throbbing, maybe another mars bar will help to ease the pain. Do you think?
