    easy breathing vibes to Pigpen's littlest.....

    (and no travelling ones to Pigpen herself!)

    work decluttered - only 4 days to go. The school where I work is undergoing work in the summer and the preparations are well underway - which means that the hall is full of c***. Which is just great - we have to fit 13 large tables in there every day for lunch time.....

    Nobody ever thinks of how their behaviour will impact on lunchtime supervisors.... we arrived in today and 2 TAs were doing a display for September - they had covered 3 tables with thier stuff!!!!!!!!!! Honestly a bit of flylady organisation is called for! One had put up a red background and 4 random stars before getting down and asking all the adults around if she was doing the flag of China correctly..... surely she checked online first...

    Haven't moved yet! Done a quick M&S online sale order, read DS3's report which is pretty much as I expected it to be, on the whole good, few areas to work on. Teachers for next year same as this year. I like them but was hoping for a change tbh and he is in the same classroom next year too which is a bit boring for him.

    Who will join me in a HHC?
