You could easily seal the bath - Last time I did it I used the gun thing that you have to push up from the bottom - too hard, this time I used the cannister one - comes in a tin like hair mousse does and you just cut the end off and push a bit and out it comes Brilliant stuff!!!
And yes to an Ebay challenge. I need something to motivate me back to the bay........

How about I set a start date in my diary and PM you when we are ready to start? How does the weekend of July 3/4 sound to you? I doubt I'll be able to start sooner. Shall we say we have to list 10 items per weekend at least?

Last day of the Easter holidays
Am very sad. Not done as much as I thought I would. Had lots of "difficult times" with the family. Ok so in some ways I am bit more sorted - I know for example that my sister really doesn't want me around and that more then ever Mum feels caught in the middle. I also suspect there is something wrong with the relationship between my sister and her Bf - in terms of it not being avery balanced and actually being quite controlling. We all pretend everything is fine but I know it isn't. Any way not really something I can explain here. And to some extent not something I can actually care about. She has made it fairly clear how she feels.
I have had three driving lessons - all gone well and I think I trust my driving instructor. It is expensive and between that and the hen weekend I have had to use the cc but i will pay that off next month.
I have been larking about on some free(mse!!) dating websites.........its been mixed to be honest. Very funny tho.
I haven't done any work at all and it has really made me think that actually it would be LOVELY not to be a teacher anymore. Something to think about
When I have passed my test I will be able to do so much more. I am so impatient. I CANNOT wait for the summer, when at some point I will be driving.
Until then just keep going.

Yes love, keep going. You are really making progress even if you don't give yourself credit for it:)
I too am thinking of a change of career once the mortgage is gone. Wouldnt it be bloomin lovely to go to work, come home and forget about it until the next day.
FE is having a massive cut in funding so the decision may be taken out of my hands that together with a new principle at the college and a "re structure" can only mean one thing..............redundancies.
You will be through that driving test in no time at all:TBut these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -

Oh GOD wouldn't it be so lovely. My room would be emptied of all the crap and I could come home without a heavy bag .I wouldn't have sleepless night over child abuse, ofsted, my boss, marking, my friends, observations. I could go out after work I could go abroad for my holidays and actually have holidays as opposed to this I must work, i must work thing, No more stress headaches. I would love to have a job that doesn't penatrate every inch of my life.

p.s - we have had redundancies and "early retirements"already it is horrible isn't it. xxxNevertheless she persisted.0 -
You have my sympathy. I have been working at home a lot his weekend, which is unusual for me, I work long hours but don't usually work at home (bl*ody volcano :mad:). I now understand how it feels to have work invading your home lifeSometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0

I don't know how teachers do it.
Putting up with the kids in the first place can be a bit of a nightmare let alone the amount of work that you need to put in before class, then again with marking afterwards.
When i was listening to the election debate they said that our national curriculum had 600 pages while in Sweden it was only 16. Sounds like they actually trust the teachers who have trained for years for this job to actually do the job themselves. Then on top of that you have the pressures and bullying from other staff to sometimes put up with...

Head is killing me has been allllllllllllllllllll day. A definate stress headache relating to tomorrow and all that that it entails.
I have been thinking about what I want to be do and have. The most coherent answer has been a goldfish.......... I know what I don't want but that is all negative and wishful thinking. I need a concrete plan. Not just a vague hope that once I am debt free i will be saving for a trip to Florida. 2012 is miles away. Don't get me wrong I still want to go but meanwhile life here is getting very frustrating. Its awful as I know when i am sucked back tot he vortex that is school all thoughts of the future and any goals will sink to oblivion.
I have to go to bed, take my syndol like a good girl and sleep this headache away.Nevertheless she persisted.0 -
How was the first day back?
urg x x0 -
Awful. I will look for the positives in a minute but
1. couldn't log on to school system
2. my work station hadn't updated and so it looked like I hadn't done all my work at all. got into some trouble until (1 hr and 45 mins later) someone came and checked my "work station" stupid poncy twatty name for a !!!!ing useless computer and worked out what the problem was.
3 I got my friend (hungover and knackered) to edit a film I made and the !!!!! who asked me to do this didn't use it.
4. the talky bits included - all kinds of ways to state the obvious . Most of us given a choice probably would have shot the person delivering it. I am now off to suck eggs - it was essentially a morning in how to do your job you incompetant fools really nice to be valued and appreciated as professionals..............oh yeah we aren't..............plus lots of other normal crap.
I had a headache all day and most of this evening. I cried on the bus on the way home and got in, ate something and went to bed (about 6) woke up at 9 and have been tidying up.
Positives.
1. my work was found
2. I moved my class room around and chucked loads of crap
3. my bedroom is looking good, I have sorted lots.
4. Today has proved I need to find a different job at some point soon.
5. I have chicken and hommous for lunch.
I know tomorrow I will go in and love my lessons. but a 48 hr headache, not enjoying anything i have eaten, just feeling like I am surviving. it is not enough. it doesn't balance out.
four days to survive.
Love Buffy xxxNevertheless she persisted.0
