Hello again! Thanks for joining in with my excitement at having a bed to sleep on again! It arrived a short while ago and is now in the hallway. That reminds me, I need to clear the space it is going to occupy in our bedroom so that we can carry it up and put it together tonight.
Done:-
~ 3 loads of washing
~ d/w on, emptied and refilled
~ hall cleared ready for delivery & now rec'd
To do:-
~ clear space in bedroom
~ write 2 b/d cards
~ cancel some magazine subs
~ take out 1 sub as a b/d pressie
~ organise toings and froings for next week
~ check ds' clothes for things that don't fit as he is going away soon on a trip
swanriver Your chat with your dh re: childcare management tactics sounds like a good idea.
galen Well done for posting off the forms! Dh did his, ds' and dd's earlier this year. Poor ds' hair is sticking up in all directions in the photo, poor thing!
The other day there was talk of a playground with insufficient shade. I had a couple of things I thought of that might help. Ask to see the risk assessment for playtimes outdoors. I think there should be one and it would cover icy conditions in winter and should then also look at measures to prevent heat and sun stroke/burn. Speak to someone on the governing body i.e. a parent governor and if any others feel the same way then say that you have the backing of x other parents as well. If you get no joy there, take your concerns to the Local Education Authority. Do the children have the run of the school and the outdoors at lunchtime or just the outdoors? It is important that they have access to shade or shelter, toilets and water, I'd say. Someone posted about UV sails, I think. Look that up and take that info with you when you speak to someone. If you get no-where, try the Health and Safety Executive perhaps for advice.
That's me done. Off to do some jobs!
Oh! The bed linen has just arrived. I've nothing to wait in for now. Shall I go into work today or shall I stay home? Must go and decide.
