*sneaking in very quietly...day in London, at exam board meeting. Lovely hotel, delicious lunch, even did some work...;) Had to be up at 5am to be there on time, so falling asleep now. No flying done today - does washing up count?? Have to go into school tomorrow, and won't get paid, as Year 9 reports need to be done. Will do kitchen before I go. Tiptoes out again*

ps Welcome to newbies, :hello:hi phil - quite a few teachers on here.

hugs to fedupandskint. Hi and hugs to flower.

OK, how did you manage to have chocolate going out of date? Mine doesn't even last the day let alone get a chance to go out of date!!!! :eek: Well done on the cleaning by the way, it's addictive isn't it...

I now know where I go wrong - the sun comes out and go out into it!

That's not wrong Dusty, get the sun while you can, enjoy it and recharge your batteries... rain predicted for tomorrow... and thanks for the kind words, If I could find someone to have my teenager he would be gone about now...

flower (((hugs))) angel -you ahve certainly had your problems with DS but now ... as well as his school work you need to get him roped in at home - maybe if he realises that he cant just laze around at home he might well buck iff ....if he gets another chance at school/college that is.

Thanks Toots and Hex - yes infuriating is one word for it! don't worry, the whip is well and truly out! Bedroom being completly blitzed as we speak, only allowed to stop to eat at the moment - tomorrow however is study day ALL DAY... he will learn!
School is definitly finished for him - he is officially on study leave until his exams which he is allowed back into school for, otherwise he is only allowed in to take work back and pick more up, but still not sure on college yet - only half way through his C&G so they MAY let him finish, we'll see.
:hello:Hi Emily, we all missed you!
FedupandSkint - Hugs honey, hope you are OK - was it another big shunt or a smaller one this time? I had similar end of last year so know how you feel, I look in the mirror every time I'm in traffic now expecting it again, can't imagine how I'd feel if it actually happened again, and so soon after too... ~~~~~quick healing vibes on their way~~~~~:A

Valli wrote: »

Sorry for your trouble Phil ... and folk think it's a doddle, teaching - yeah right! You're safe now (from me) BTW :rotfl: I don't flirt with teachers!

Valli, are you just trying to lead Phil into a false sense of security - he's married you know!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:
Watch this one Phil... she's dangerous!!! Hugs to you too, sounds like you've been through the wars in one way and another - hopefully you're on the way up now, and this lot on here will always cheer you up if ever you're feeling blue or need someone to rant to! They're absolutly brilliant on here.
JennyBee - hugs hun, sounds like you're a bit down - hope LO feels better soon, and WM and DW are great achievements!!! :T :T

Not much flying today, although Kitchen is looking clean and tidy (just don't look at hob for a bit...:o ), DW needs emptying and then we can put plates and saucepan in from tonight - it's great with just me and DS as not much goes in, so we can switch it on every other day - saving more electric!
I am going to go watch TV now and do some Ironing... :eek: Heroes on at 10.30pm then bed for me... Hope to catch up tomorrow, see you then...

Bed now in bits, so am about to shift the frame into the garage. How come the things you think are going to take ages don't?

I'll keep the mattress inside for now.

Soappie - I assume your DD has found a bed closer to home? If not, let me know and I'll keep this for you. Otherwise (unless someone else on here wants it) I'll put it on freecycle and get rid of it asap!

Dinner decluttered and I'm off to declutter my hair before bedtime - have asked OH to go out to the garage and get the washing from the TD for me cos I forgot to get it in again!

I'm working all day tomorrow so wanted to get the list done tonight, so I'm pleased I did some of it this morning - must be those psychic vibes again lol. Had a lovely afternoon and spent 3 hours chatting to ex elderly neighbour who really appreciated the visit as she's hardly seen anyone in days! Also handed in my job application to the local school, although I chickened out of walking in the end and drove. Will save the walking for another day.

Dinner at MIL's tomorrow evening, so may not get online unless I get online in between school and then, so I hope everyone has a happy and productive day of flying.

Also welcome to all of the new flybabies as we like to call them when you first start out, particularly phil - I'm a fellow primary teacher at the other end of their career (have been struggling to find a position since 2007 to complete my NQT year in - I only have 1 term left to do). Good luck in whatever you decide to do - you could try supply teaching as this is quite flexible, and although you don't get paid over the holidays, it's a lot less stressful than teaching full time (a couple of us on here do it - serena and me).

Well night night all,

I'm really pleased with what I've managed to get done today. Had to start work an hour early because I had to leave early to go to the dentists. By the time I got back and sorted dinner I didn't think I'd have the energy but I thought I'd just make a start
