Ah girls, your all stars....
(need to find a star icon!)
Sue - I'm just a moaning cow - so ignore me. I teach and am Dept head, so a lot of flack comes my way from pupils, staff and management. To top it all we are working in what can only be described as a building site and I'm constantly phoning about drilling and hammering (or writing memos about them
!)
My dh is self employed, so really we don't know what's happening from one month to the next - so I have to keep working full-time meantime. Needs must I'm afraid. I would love to go part-time, but because I'm dept head, I don't think they'll allow it, especially as eventually they wasnt to group us with 2 other other subjects and eventually have only one 'head' (costcutting s**t), so don't want to give them any 'oppotunities'. They can't do it when I'm there, and couldn't afford part time on a ordinary teachers salary - so there lies my dilemma..Tonight I saw Sam for an hour before I had to leave again for a parents evening. B**lo**s really. I fought 7 years for him, so don't want to leave him for a second.
OMG - will I be like this when he's a teenager
I'm lucky really. Having Steve at home means he's flexible and he gets to spend lots of time with Sam (I just wish it was me!!
)- and his mum comes here for the days he's got a job on. Cuts lots of costs - although I don't think good in the long term as he needs to be with other kids.
Anyway, I'm winning the lottery soon don't you know, so there's the solution...
Shell - you're a darling as always...You'll probably like 3 days - will get you out. You do get used to it, so tell me to shut up any time you like.
Sally - was off about 7/8 months. Came off around 31 weeks because I had such a rubbish pregnancy so wanted a good few weeks to pamper myself and relax - the wee beggar then came 7 weeks early so that put paid to that! Can you imagine me being at school - 'hang on kids - I'll be back in a mo - just got to do something...'
