    Phew just caught up on the thread, and now I can't remember anything I have read :rolleyes:

    Last two days I have been working on our new allotment ( we took it on in October last year....have got it over three quarters clear, moved all the autumn raspberries from old allotment, and I'm trying plant/ sow seeds in all the cleared ground) but the house is starting to suffer so have to come back to it.

    Jo ~ What a lovely idea, thank you for doing that

    Michelle ~ hope you get some useful help from your doctors visit. I was a nearly teacher:o.....didn't know when I started teacher training that I was pregnant with ds2 ( I wasn't supposed to be able to have any more children ) I kept fainting on my teaching practice...had to give up to go on bed rest.....but I do remember just how enormously stressful the whole experience was, think you are doing so well to have been teaching with two little ones at home....you do have this useful qualification and if you decide to take a break you can always use it again in the future.

    LadyL ~ hope you enjoy your kittens and that your condition stabilises for a good long time.

    And now I must shift myself and make at least a little headway into the lists.

    FURTHER UPDATE ON TOOTS

    She says that she's borrowed a mobile and charger, but her sim hasn't got her numbers stored on it. She's asked me to say that she can receive texts now. :D

    Thanks all for the update on Toots - and thank you xx_Jo_xx for your kind thought.

    Stars have been updated. I finished today's job and then sat outside in the garden writing for a bit. It's finally beginning to cool down a touch as the breeze is picking up. I might even be able to take BB on a longer walk this afternoon.

    How are you feeling now pigpen? Are you feeling better? Well done for doing the extra assignment so quickly too.

    Very quick as dashing out for lunch with a friend... so will be back laters..

    Erm.. I am fairly ok I think.. have another water infection but hoping it'll deal with itself as I REALLY don't want another batch of AB's. I keep falling asleep at random moments.. like every time I sit down or think about a bed! It'll get better I guess.

    The extra assignment I am hoping to get dropped in later today and I have 4 others to hand in.. I was hoping to get into college in the morning with another completed assignment but I haven't finished it (that will be tonights job wen I get home) and hopefully I can get it in at some stage before the weekend as I need to get my brain in gear... there is only half of it to do really and it isn't difficult. I think I have done almost all the study skills stuff I needed to get through and just need to print off a pile of stuff.. it would have been taken in this morning.. had I managed to get that done last night.. I didn't get finished until gone twelve anyway and there was no way I was starting printing then!!

    I have 3 of the children off tomorrow and Friday as have the yr 6's visiting and nursery is shut for polling.. hmm.. wonder where my card thing is.. :s.. :confused:.. oh well..

    On a flying front.. 2 loads of washing have almost got themselves in the WM.. and the DW needs loading.. :rolleyes:

    right.. off out for food.... toodles.. xx

    Michelle I hope you have had help from your doctor. I thought a lot about you last night and then DS1 rang later saying me wanted to give up teaching. He is onto his second day's placement and he too had two TAs in the classroom. Little shirts!! And unsupportive staff too.
    I was mean and persuaded him to try another day. Its just I know exactly what it can be like and how hard it is. I was really upset after talking to him, it is so hard sometimes.
    Loads of hugs for you, Michelle and take time to make a decision about what you want to do.

    Flying hasn't started yet, must get going but my 'get up and go' seems to have gone today! I did too much yesterday and now am paying the consequences!!

    DS1 has been in touch and is okay! Quote from him "so how come you are better at science than Miss?" He is smiling again.
