just another morning here

Since I’ve been counting weekends this summer I suppose I ought to write about the one just gone; but for most of the family it was uneventful.

We spent it lounging around, gardening (Steve & the kids), sewing on nametapes, washing, ironing, and doing schoolwork (me). Oh – we did go to a lovely birthday party on a boat around Torbay, which was fab.

Anna, meanwhile, was living it up with a friend from school, whose family took her to Greenbelt. I was very envious. I asked her to take some photos for me and this was the only decent one she came home with … clearly she was too busy having fun to worry about recording it on camera for her old mum

So today I’m doing the last few bits of preparation that it seems possible to do before actually getting into my classroom, which is still a bit of a bombsite and builders are still there working. We’re meant to be doing some fun activity day or other on Friday as a teambuilding training thing but I can see some of us not managing to go because we’ll need to spend the day working in the classroom … as I don’t suppose the builders will clean up after themselves …
Meanwhile Abbie is getting ready for an afternoon’s Y7 induction before term starts for real (for all three children) tomorrow. I am hoping they might let me take a photo of them all looking smart in the morning …
