Anyone else totally wiped out?

[whitepearl17]

Hi, I am barely functioning! Started new school full time in September after several years part time. I also have 3 dd's to look after and am more than ready for half term, in fact feel so totally shattered have just opened some naughty school night wine .
I have one more day with children as thankfully (or maybe not having just read the agenda) have inset on Friday!!

[PurpleDaisies]

Two more days here. I'm dead on my feet.

[Doomhutch]

I don't know what it was about this term, but me too! Although at least I've had my observation now.

[AdultHumanFemale]

We're all hanging too, the staffroom is full of the walking wounded.

[whitepearl17]

Aww hope it went well Doomhutch!

[Bananasandchocolatecustard]

I’m in Wales and we have another week to go.

[EveningShadows]

Yep - most of my teaching friends are on their knees. I've finished for half term now (work p/t) but feel dreadful

[leccybill]

Utterly dead here. Most manic start back every known.

I'm also in a new school, just finding my way around and learning 200 names of kids I teach every week took it out of me! Then of course the many, many, many initiaves and nonsense I have to follow (it's an academy...). Pass me the wine!

[whitepearl17]

Of course leccybill! Cheers!
Crikey banana that's one heck of a long half term

[Doomhutch]

The kids are knackered as well. All the friendship problems are coming out to play!

Really well, thanks! They're supportive in my school, but it's still nice to realx until after Christmas!

[whitepearl17]

Oh yes, especially in my needy year 7 classes, my year 11's are just asleep in class!!

[innerfoundpeas]

oh yes - feel pain! They are shattered. Dare I mention that next half term is 8 WEEKS long?!! or is that just us... I am utterly exhausted!

[innerfoundpeas]

Oh yes - do not mention football at breaktime/glue (in a primary so really mean the sticking stuff!) he said/she said wearing sooooo thin

[innerfoundpeas]

Oh bananas that is awful! but hey, shorter next half? (desp clutching at straws)

[BlessYourCottonSocks]

Yep. Read my day from hell post! I am so tired I am terrified I will not make it through the next two days without breaking. This is me....

Bless I've come so close to that this week!!!

[BlessYourCottonSocks]

pearl I was scarily close today!

There was a fraction of a second where my brain whispered 'Just say it! And walk out'...

I am that tired :(

[Bananasandchocolatecustard]

Commiserations are appreciated. Hope you all have restful half terms.

When do you break up for Christmas ? We finish on the 22nd!

[EveningShadows]

22nd?? Bloody hell, that's late!

We finish on the 19th.

[leccybill]

Yep, 22nd here. If I make it!

[Unode50]

I'm in Scotland so thankfully my half term break is this week. Definitely felt ridiculously tired on Friday. Already dreading going back on Monday. We finish for Christmas on the 21st.

[BlessYourCottonSocks]

I can't even bear to look:(

But you've stressed me now leccy and I'm forced to...We finish on 19th apparently - but we're back on 2rd? That's not do-able for me.

[mineofuselessinformation]

A day more of teaching... (Six lessons so an after school session!)
And then delivering training on Friday.
Will have to catch up on marking over the holidays will need to take a bloody wheelbarrow in with me to transport all of the books.
I'm knackered. Beyond tired. Never had such a crazy-busy half term.
Going through UPS1 to UPS2 (or trying to!), so not feeling hopeful about that, never mind all of the rest of it....

[Piggywaspushed]

I'm so tired I have to restrain myself form saying ' will you just shut the fuck up?' to every annoying child and teacher
