    OH gave me a funny look earlier when I suggested a glass of wine!
    Probably because I had a bottle on Friday night and half a bottle Sunday :o

    I always lose track of the days, even worse now I'm on mat leave :)

    I've done the bedroom. It was annoying me. So mattress vacuumed & turned, bedding washed, floor hoovered, everything dusted & dewebbed, skirtings hoovered. It could probably all do with washing down, but I'm not sure when I'll be dragging the mop & bucket upstairs again!

    Still have HUGE amounts of ironing to do... although I may well not do the spare duvet covers, just remake the spare bed and get the other bedding ready for the builders. I don't think anyone else is going to be staying before they come back...

    valli vibes for a no 2 or even no 1 lesson.I got a mixture of 3 (for my teaching and their behaviour but a 4 for progress as I didnt jump through the hoops correctly:mad: I am getting pig sick of this job and the constant need to prove and demonstrate at every moment that the kids are making progress. Hard to prove that they are in one 50 minute observation! So my HOD wants me to discount that one and do another :mad: Oh and we are to be subjected to some "climate walks" to see how the lessons we are going to plan together are working , in other words, lets make everyone teach all in the same way,no room for personality or individuality, and come and spy on our staff.

    :mad::mad::mad: and breathe and relax :rotfl:sorry everyone
    Flying wise I have
    cleaned the sink at work, washed up and tidied out the stationery cupboard
    put some washing away

    Am day off tomorrow so will be back on the cleaning wagon with a vengence!

    she made it into my phonic session this morning

    AnW'sMum (well her real name;)) is getting a tow/toe bar fitted to her new car.

    Bit confuzzled, was it me or toots who were in your phonic lesson?! And tow bar is on next weeks agenda, that way it will be on next month's ccard bill (to be paid off in full the month after ;) ) ~ Positive lesson ~ vibes for you for tomorrow.

    Not much flying done here today as I have not been in much, not sure how much will get done tomorrow either as I am catching up with a couple of mates. Obviously I shall have to take the car and show it off at the same time :p

    Kazw love that joke.

    See you all on the morrow.
