Thursday, Wet and Dreary Staffroom

[TheConfusedOne]

But we are going dancing so it doesn't matter

Day two with my new baby, hope it goes as well as yesterday.

Coffee in the pot cream cakes in the fridge, going to find all the rain covers and umbrellas [sigh]

Cakes, lovely thanks.

Long day today, but then have 2 weeks off (well fulltime mindee, i'll still have the after schollies). Got my new rain coat yesterday, why do I think that its going to get alot of use today??

TCO, I hope that your 'baby' is still as good as gold today

Hi!

Yes, I hope your new baby is okay today, TCO. I had a really long day yesterday then my son woke up at 3.45 and 4.45. My alarm goes off at 5.45. Hardly seemed worth the while going back to sleep.

Is the coffee in the pot fresh????

I'm slowly joining the land of the living

Still very snotty (makes a change from the children)
Interviewed a lovely family yesterday - wanting to start in March

tulip - please where did you get your coat? I'm in desperate need of one and can't find a reasonably price waterproof ne anywhere!

hope my new baby goes as well as everyone elses when i start him in nov! was told by mum yest that he still doesn't sellp unless held we'll see!

hope you all have good day. off to toddlers at church this morn and then home for luch and school run. please let it stay nice ish as it is here at mo......

Morning everyone.

No work again for me today! Still not heard from the familys that visited me 2 weeks ago, so will have to hope the phone starts to ring soon.

DD is on a walking school trip today and the sky is so grey, I think they will get wet.

Hope you all have a fun time doing your activities.

Morning everyone. millets do good rain coats. im going for loud wellies this year.

Hello everyone

I am down in the dump today, ds poorly, started being sick yest afternoon, and woke e up this morning by being sick on my forehead and hair. BLEURGH!! SOB SOB SOB!!!!

Needless to say i took yest aft and today off, have packaged up parent's refunds (more phoney sobbing), and have tidied up the house as I am stuck in. Sigh!

I got a nice raincoat last winter from primark, don't know what they are like this year though.

HAve a good day everyone.

EM, My friend has her own embroidery buisness and I brought the coat through her (unembroidered), I am sure that she could help you if you would like. Just let me know.

Feeling all urgh myself. Just had a phone from dh asking me to pack his bag he's flying to hong kong on wednesday for buisness - a week earlier than expected! Why is it that he's going away and I'm supposed to pack his bag???

Tulip31: If he is like my DP he will say it is 'because you are so much better at it / do it so well'. Which is true, so it's my own fault for being an impatient perfectionist.

ooh tulip sounds good could you email details maybe to keri dot bradley at tiscali dot co dot uk
embroidered might be fun too - thinking advertising!

thanks for the other suggestions folks. am off into reading on saturday so will scour millets and primark (think i'll like the primark prices better!)

Well still going well

Had to say goodbye to my older boy today tho, (he actually finished Tuesday, but came in this morning as my little terror is on holiday).

I wills tills see him for a few more weeks tho, they are waiting to emigrate to Oz.

Hi all

We've been down the park chasing pigeons and generally running riot

Have a good day

Em, my email seems to be receiving but not sending!!! Look at this link jo's embroidery

Have a good rest of the day everyone, I'm going to put on a fresh coffee - 2 asleep and 3rd raiding the fridge!!

I had a letter today that Ofsted had tried to visit me on Monday (not due till December).

Thought it was abit odd as had had no phonecall, and they cant get onto camp unless I sign them in (we are behind the wire herer)

Anyway I phoned them and it seems that they didnt visit, but tried to phone, as somebody had reported me for being over my numbers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was all sorted over the phone, but !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so shocked!

Well my morning changed 5 mins after my last post.
School were 1 helper down for the trip and could I meet them there to help and walk back to school again, but we had a great time and got back to school 1/2 later than should have so all very hungry. I then had to walk 20 mins back home, so would love a large hot coffee will leave again for school in 1hr 15 mins.

Confused

My 4 year old started diarrhoea (sp???) about 2 hours ago so I have cancelled all my kids for tomorrow and managed to send all but one home early. Then the poor baby landed up skidding down the stairs head first, crashing into the stair gate!

Forget the coffee! Anyone put any wine in the fridge?

Oh, and I have obviously had to cancel tomorrow too. Mixed blessing because it amounts to a costly lie in....

Warning: Toy Dinosaurs can hurt a lot! Think 3 year old I care for was quite surprised at the amount of blood which came from head, following his dinosaur being a little rough when it found me during a game of hide-and-seek.
Typically happens right at the end of the day, just before mum got home - up till then the day had gone well

Time for a coffee and a shower (to get blood out of my hair).

Time to Dinosaur Attack to the occupational hazards list. Suppose dinosaurs now need a risk assessment!

Opps, missed a MY and an ADD.

Nick we have some huge ones that we bought at Dorchester Dinosaur Museum, they bloody hurt when you drop them on your toe too, they are heavy!!

(can I borrow your risk assessment )

Twice!

I'm bloody exhausted. Why I am doing this job again?!!!!

Why am I, even. It's been a long week and it's not even over yet.
