Holiday work: a painful oxymoron

Holidays so kids at school. Alison suddenly unwell with headache, high temp etc. If this becomes swine flu...!
Trying to do too many things today (have holiday list of about 30 jobs) but desperate not to waste time (is writing this wasting time? Probably). Have done some filing and currently trying to copy shows off the DVD recorder onto DVDs. Need to buy a new DVD recorder as this one keeps freezing. Want to copy our wedding videos onto DVD, but then wonder if our VCR is up to the task or whether we need to buy a new one of those too. Should be pretty cheap - in fact we may not be able to buy one for much longer if they become obsolete. Wedding VHSs date from 1993 so condition may be suspect if I don't move fast. The good thing is they've been played very rarely and have been stored pretty well so should be largely OK.
But must do schoolwork whenever possible, especially during 9-3 when kids are away this week. Time to get into it.
