    Hi Red, I'm not sure that it's a good idea! Am aching all over this morning - actually feel bruised!!

    Woke up early this morning, 5.30 am as if I'm going to work, very annoying on a Sunday. Just waiting for it to get light so I can go for a walk with the dog to loosen off the back.
    Will then get the bit of marking out of the way and write some exam papers before tesco opens at 10am.

    Had a fairly productive day - done lots of admin and written one outcomes report and 4 exam papers. Lots of work still to do tomorrow but need stuff from work to finish the big report that needs writing for governors.

    Have been for a big walk, tidied the house and made a big batch of lentil Dahl - the first time I've tried it and it turned out really well miraculously :)
    Have some for lunch tomorrow too - long day at work tomorrow so will need a proper lunch.
    Spent the afternoon with OH but we both had work to do tonight so I came home around 6.30.
    Have spoken to mum and all ok there.

    Going to watch telly for a bit, catching up on Doc Martin ( my guilty pleasure) and one more episode of something. Early night tonight after an early start.....

    Forgot to add that I spent £40 in tesco - within budget - £200 for the month (4 weeks worth of shopping)
  • Glad to catch up with your new diary. Great news about your OH's headship, will it start in September?
    Takes the pressure off with you no longer working together?

    I love your commitment to your dog, it shines out!
