What made your week?

[EmmaLouu]

What has been the best part of your week? Doesn’t matter how small.. or big.. anything.

what made your week?

Mine was realising how resilient I am, despite all the pressure and how good chocolate digestives taste with a brew after a shit day!

Joining an online group & feeling really comfortable & connected with them early on. We have lovely, deep conversations.

Thank you postcards from a few students. So lovely what they wrote about how they appreciate my teaching.

My car sailing through her M O T again despite being 14 years old. Which meant I didn't have to spend anything extra.

Parents' evening for DD2. DH died 6 weeks ago, after 2 months in the hospice and years of cancer.

DD2 does not find school an easy place to be. She's just started y10 and is smashing it out the park. I cried on three different teachers for their beautiful comments.

Seeing the hot dad I like at pick up. I don't know what it is, he's got this nerdy goofy look about him that makes me want to lose control with him

Oh @PlantPhoenix as a teacher I really hope your girl's ones are wrapping her in kindness at school.
So sorry for your loss

So sorry for your loss 💐

Just been told tonight that DS1 and DIL1 are expecting a daughter next year! 😀🌈💥🌸

Mine was either loosing another lb despite having been very bad last weekend. Or when a student announced that her mum was bringing in 300 pairs of safety glasses.
We're so short of them. No idea why kids are taking them

Told I had been offered an interview for a job I really want!

Mine has been finally getting the courage to join a chat and get speaking to new people ❤️

After a shitty day at work, walking home and meeting Best Neighbourhood Cat on the way. He is a total tart and loves a fuss, and seeing him really cheered me up.

A staff job offer in my contractor position.

@TheFutureIs - they really are. Three DDs- Y11,10 and 7 so a tough year all round regardless. But they're being looked after well.

Also, a weird one - I’m self employed but threw my hat in for a job I quote liked the sound of and got an interview. During the interview it dawned on me how much I didn’t want the job. I nearly left half way through! They were excited about my freelance work so I was dreading hearing I’d got it - and I didn’t! I was so relieved. They were very confused when I didn’t sound bothered 🤣

Chatting to a lovely lady at work. After having a cry in the morning, feeling guilty that I work and I'm not with my 2 year old everyday, she told me I sound like a fabulous mum and never to feel guilty for providing for her. She was fabulous and she cheered me right up!

@PlantPhoenix I'm very sorry for your loss but super pleased for your dd making you proud

Getting promoted at work! I'm soo chuffed and pleased with myself !!

My ds6 has finally cracked division and that made me smile . He isn't the brightest so was super pleased that he is slowly understanding it!!

I've finally finished reading a book which I've been reading for over two years  I am very embarrassed but pleased that I conquered!

Visiting an SEN school today

One of my team (I'm the manager) attempted suicide last week and I've been helping him as much as I can and today we were talking in our team meeting about successes and challenges and he listed me as his success of the week and thank me in front of the whole team! I was very emotional!

It really did make my week!

@Snoooozzze this is amazing !
I nearly cried!! Thank you for being such a supportive and humane individual- the world needs more people like you

Aww thank you

I'll be off for a cry again!

Getting a lovely compliment from a very attractive much younger man It's very shallow of me but I've been on cloud nine ever since <shallow>

These are nice. I’m very happy for you all. And I’m so sorry for your loss @PlantPhoenix

My colleagues and I have been desperately trying to get our clients to let us do our jobs instead of doing everything themselves. Yesterday they sheepishly admitted they can’t do everything that’s needed in time and can we please help them. We’re thrilled to finally have something useful to do!

A friend suggesting Vinted to me.
I have so many clothes that I need to get rid of as they all too big.
Put my clothes on there and have made a bit of money.

Anyone else used Vinted???

After a series of lousy events this week, I came in to work to find my colleague (who I've only really worked with for the past fortnight, - we both usually work shifts that don't crossover) had made me the most delicious carrot cake to cheer me up. It's more than made my day. 😊
