    What's wrong with Office? Dodgy hugs for today, I think that feeling was widespread.

    glad to hear your mum is on the mend. hows the dry january going?

    if you can't be bothered to faff with office, remember that you can download OpenOffice completely free of charge, and if you have a google account you can also use GoogleDocs which offers word processing, spreadsheets etc (and so long as you chose the right file format to save your work, you'll be able to use these documents in Microsoft Office too).

    Gosh thats clever Pavlovs. I have done it now...probably.
    Dry January seems to be speeding by. Since we dont drink on schoolnights the real test will be Friday.
    I have just seen a dormouse i think. Probably it ought to be hibernating?
    NSD. Wednesday is usually my worst teaching day but it went well today. DD2 had a 40 minute tantrum over writing a thankyou letter.bay of e sales going ok.
  • Hello,

    Hope all is going well at work. It didn't take long to get back in the routine. I had a completely irrationally mad parent to deal with today. But I am grateful for getting home and having an early night.

    I am glad mum is not so bad. Good luck to her and to you all,

    £103 spent on diesel today.
    Thursday is my best timetable day. Also someone who caused me a load of grief earlier this week got her just desserts without me doing a thing.

    Planks, splinters and eyes come to mind.

    Apart from mentioning an item on ebay has 28 watchers and that L$dl freeway lemonade is quite delicious, nothing else to report.

    Actually there is.
    Today i am thankful for
    * divine retribution
    * home
    * friday tomorrow...i think
    * not having a trainee this term...i enjoy it but they take the very marrow from ones bones
    * series 5 of Breaking Bad is in the post.
