I'm glad it's the bathroom today as that's what I guessed at earlier! Will update my list now ............
pink_numbers - welcome
greenbee - welcome back
Jill - that's great news
valli - Henry the Janitor is Hong Kong Phooey (ETA - penpen got there before me!!)
pigpen - glad all went well for DS
ajmoney - hugs
sexymouse - so glad your GP was understanding and do take the time off if you need to as it will help and give you time to contact all the people you need to talk to (Union; LA; etc.) I'll be thinking of you tomorrow - you are being very strong going in for it - hugs xx"There's only one way of life and that's your own" - Levellers

Can I go to bed yet ??
:o
I think we'll permit you to take to your bed at 9pm but not a moment before
ajmoney - hugs love - I'm sure you did the right thing though
well done on your first star Pink_numbers!
Poohbear - hugs for today and tomorrow!
Mum on a Mission - that's nice to read about the fun hour with DS. Treasure it!
sexym - glad you have an understanding GP and well done you for not accepting the sick certificate. You CAN do this girl and show them what you're capable of. And I think we need a post from you every day, like LL, just to know how you're coping. Sending you humungous coping and good luck vibes for tomorrow xx
I have been trying to do this response for an hour but things keep getting in the way! Still, I'm responding now.
Flying wise? I've put some things in the DW and prepped a chicken and bacon in tomato sauce from scratch concoction for my dinner - it's in the oven at the moment.
I have also dumbed down my CV. My current contract (totally different from anything I've done before, really) finishes tomorrow. BUT there is the opportunity of another contract in a slightly different field (which I'm perfectly capable of doing) for the same academic outfit that cropped up today. I was first rejected for it because my CV "would scare them". So I've dumbed it down big time.
I could do with serious "get that post" vibes ladies and gents if any of you have a moment to spare. It would give me a small amount of cash (any cash is better than none!) and see me over the festive period.... and allow me to finish my book...I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Evening all
It is pouring here so expecting DH to ring any minute for a lift, he usually cycles home but not in that!
Quillion - how are you getting on with your uninvited visitors? I'm hoping we're on the home run with ours as it is getting mighty tedious now.
I just need to finish washing up and then I think I'll sit and sort out the overflowing receipt drawer.
DS1 has an exam tomorrow and I'm invigilating too, hoping to pop out in the morning to get new school sweatshirts for DS2 who has finally grown (he's had these since he started and is in year 9 now).
Rose - I'd not wash towels with suit troussers, wont' you get bits on them? Hope DH is feeling better nowThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Soappie - contract vibes coming your way
Sexy - I'm glad your GP is on your side and it just shows what a fab teacher you are that you want to go on the trip with your class. I'll be there virtually supporting your tomorrow and glaring at the evil assessors xThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Thank you again everyone!
GET THAT POST VIBES to soappie for tomorrow.
Also good luck to louboutine (not sure if I've spelt that right?) for your hearing tomorrow too.
Just sent an email message to the teacher support network too to ask advice about resignation etc.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170 -
