    good afternoon, ladies. what a funny old day, had to come home from work at lunch as my little man got sick in nursery and needed to come home. he promptly nodded off in his bed about 2pm and is still there, so i have managed to have a massive fly session!

    Didn't think I would get home earlytoday as the HLTA (higher level teaching assistant) who normally covers my PPA time is out on a residential - all the other staff are having theirs on Thursday, when the school's closed for INSET but as I am not employed on Thursday I can't. Boss was about so I asked him, point blank, what the plan was for mine and was he going to take it because if he was I had a lovely PE lesson planned...and handed him the plan;)
    cue me home on time...
    chances are I won't be around Thursday though as I shall probably turn in for the INSET (unpaid - own choice *winces from arm being up back*) because it will be good for my professional development *rolls eyes* Part time is part time and then voluntary on top I feel *grumble*
    anyway I have a line out and I am getting nibbles so that's a plus ;) and no I'm not MagsCat;) and you know what they say about fish in the sea and all that;)
    Glad Danny's being looked after Graaaaan and I think that baby is doing it's utmost to distract you and stop you worrying about his/her uncle ;)
    those with numbers for Lady Liberty; Toots: Graaaan please add my good wishes to your texts

    Hi all, I've planted all my plants out at my mum's, been up to asda and bought some very nice sandals for £15 and some other bits we needed (and a food magazine we didn't need :D). Also got DH some shandy as he's busy working all day and will be asking for cold drinks later.

    Not got a clue what to do for dinner (didn't buy food stuff in asda as it's two bus rides away and anything frozen would have been mush by the time I got home).

    Have washed the other bunk bed bedding so must hang that out now so it has a chance of drying... then should really do some houseworky stuff.
    working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?
