Well, my old boss and I had this great arrangement where I would leave work at 2:30 to be home for the boys after school, and make up the time on weekends/after the boys went to bed. This worked fine for a couple of years. New boss - more controlling - says Sorry, if I don't know when you're working, I can't micromanage you (not her words, obviously, but that was the meaning), so no more flex-time for poor old me. So not only do my kids have to go into after school instead of being home (which they will likely enjoy), it means that the only real time I spend with them is Get up go to school, or Take a bath, do your homework, and go to bed. No afternoons of play. And I'm a single parent... *sigh*

So I need some appropriate blues, I think. Talking Single Parent Blues? Gotta get the kids to afterschool blues? Buggerall. This is really going to start bugging me soon!
