I feel like I'm fighting an infection at the moment as I don't feel quite right and I'm tired and yawning no matter how much sleep I get but I'm functioning at the moment. Hopefully yet another early night will help me fight whatever it is.

I hope everyone is having a good Wednesday .

Are you taking medication at the moment? The symptoms might be a side effect. I had a time a few years ago where I was constantly yawning, and really 'strong' yawns too. I happened to read the leaflet on my medication, and funnily enough yawning was listed as a side effect. It was very bizarre!

Hopefully it's just all the busyness and doesn't come to anything. x

Sorry you are still feeling unwell. Hopefully an early night will do the trick.

Evening HHD I hope you're not coming down with something. You sound so busy all the time, I find myself feeling exhausted just reading about what you do each day. I guess the long journey to pick DS up has some plus points in that the journey is an enforced rest period for you. Look after yourself. xx

Thanks TF2 . Unfortunately I always find journeys really tiring even if I'm not driving. I'm a bit of a nervous passenger plus DH likes me to talk to him sometimes to stop him feeling sleepy and help him look at road signs. So I find the whole experience quite exhausting!

Hope you're soon feeling as though you've fought off whatever is dragging you down HH - I have a sneaking suspicion that all the scrapping and bickering about the flipping election isn't helping a lot of people at the moment - so maybe the general feeling will improve after today!

That's great timing on DH's work stuff picking up!

Thanks EH . I'm certainly sick to death of politicians and political news :mad:.

Thanks Jwil . I'm not on any medication apart from asthma inhalers so it can't be that. I think I'm just genuinely exhausted.

I slept really badly last night even though I felt really tired. I think I was feeling a bit anxious about the Christmas lunch today as it was fifteen minutes earlier, teachers were going to be helping including the head, and I knew all the children would be noisy and excited. I was also worried about my lack of preparation for Christmas as I've still only written six cards.

So predictably I was even more tired today . The children were rehearsing all morning for their Christmas performance. I didn't really enjoy the lunchtime experience as the children were over excited, I felt a bit scrutinised as the head was there and my colleague gave me some antlers to wear which slipped off my head every time I leant over :mad:. We were told we could have a free pudding but I never feel hungry when I'm working so I didn't want one.

I'm not really feeling the Christmas spirit today. I think I'm just really tired as the children are over excited and noisy, it's been wet and windy for three days in a row and I've been doing extra shopping after school for Christmas. I'm fed up with being cold, wet and busy . A teacher was crying in the staff room as I was leaving so I think everyone is tired and stressed.

Sorry for a moany post. Hopefully if I sleep well tonight I'll feel better.

I hope everyone is having a good Thursday .

Not a moany post , just as it is.
A lot of friends who work in schools find this the hardest term of them all
Last posting date for second class post is not til the 18th which is next Wednesday so plenty of time to write cards
I have cut way way down on cards this year

Firstly great news about DH and the extra money coming in A bit of breathing space for you.

Hope you feel better soon, I know of quite a few people not well at the moment, hopefully everyone will be tickety boo for Christmas

Although it must be nice working with young children this time of year, I suppose their excitement must be wearing. I can understand how it must be stressful.

I might sound jaded but for the past few years I just haven't felt Christmassy, I don't know why, I keep trying.

Anyway hope you get a good night's sleep xx
