Crying into my toast


There are mothers all over Victoria waking up today 
jumping for joy and singing the Hallelujah Chorus.

Not this little black duck. 

I am unhappy.
Cheesed off.
Annoyed.
Grumpy.
Hating the fact that I have to go back to school.

I love being at home, pottering, sewing, internet shopping.

11 weeks of work until the big sewing break.
So that's 55 school days, 22 sewing/shopping/chore days
and one public holiday.  
There's also 2 weeks of swimming thrown in, along with reports, next years class lists,
Christmas functions (yay), presents (yes Simone this means your presents).

I think I can handle it.
I think I will make it.

  6. I was reading your post sympathising with all teachers who are retuning back to work.
    I go back but seeing I don't work in classrooms full time at this moment I know exactly how you feel. I got a lovely surprise to read my name in your post. Hope you have a great day.
