Am at uni atm. Have been summoned to a meeting about my attendance last term. No detail given on what they want to talk about but my attendance wasn't good. The whole term was one disaster after another: I was ill three times (migraine which I get about once a year and wiped me for two days, chest infection that killed me for a week and one random unexplained glutening - I'm coeliac) DS was ill and couldn't go in to nursery twice, DH got appendicitis and needed rushing to hospital, then couldn't cope alone with DS on his days off which killed another two days, we had a burst water pipe and I had to stay at home to sort it, the bus I was on one day crashed into a lamppost(!) so I missed my train and consequently I missed a teaching session where attendance is recorded, though was in for the rest of the day. It just sounds like a catalogue of crappy excuses though. But all the things were genuine problems, not my fault, with no easy or alternative solution and unlikely to recur (apart from DS illness). I'm just shitting myself as I'm never ever in trouble (wasn't at school either) and don't deal well with being told off. I usually cry....
