You know I like a nice spreadsheet....well over the weekend it all got a bit much and I started to do a Gantt chart and critical path analysis about waiting to make decisions and what info has to come first before a decision can be made
There is the possibility that the waiting has pushed me over the edge......

I think it must have done Kaymac as it would appear you are no longer speaking the Queens English

They are nice - sort of pretty & organised with lots of colours
But perhaps systems tools are a step too far....although I did consider a rich picture as well but wasn't feeling creative enough
I need to get a life

Or hire yourself out as a consultant for those of us who will be doing the same thing - but with far less technical expertise - in the years to come.

Yes Yes TaylaB - what are your rates Katymac? (remember we're the parents of (hopefully) soon-to-be poor struggling artistes!)

Well all I'd say is contact me and I'll try and rationalise your decision making processes; it's so much easier when your own child isn't involved
Mind you I did have a parent tell me a while ago that their child could sing so they wouldn't need to dance to get into MT college & refused to believe that the children need to be at the same (or similar) level for each dancing singing & acting

Comforting? That's a good word I need some of that
Maye I should create a new spreadsheet for something to help me find my "calm centre"
