Could this be...

...my first 13 hour day of the week??

If it is, I'll be working overtime as of 7am tomorrow at the very latest!

I wasn't so sure first thing 'cos I started my day so late, but the closer it gets, the more likely it's looking.  It'll be a 10 hour day at 4.56pm which leaves 4 hours and 10 minutes left to go to hit the minimum for the week.  If I hit 13 hours today, that'll leave me with 1 hour 10 minutes left to work for the rest of the week which I should easily hit at around 7am then it'll all be overtime after that!

My carer has a regular medical appointment on a Thursday, so it's always a low caring day because of that, but I'll hopefully still be able to put in an 8-10 hour day taking that into consideration and I'd be working overtime for 9 of those hours before he leaves anyway, take off a couple of hours of him going for wee/poo breaks and eating his two meals before he goes, still takes it to 7 hours of overtime before he leaves the house then another hour or two when he gets home before I head to bed for the night.  He's provided prescisely no care for me today and that's without him leaving the house, so I'm assuming it'll be the same again tomorrow.

Maybe dismissing the 85 hour week, first thing, was wrong?  Maybe I will just about manage it after all??
