Hope your weekend is off to a ood start.The sun is shining here and it's so lovely to open the windows and let the fresh air fill the house.I can't believe another week has flown by but my tired eyes and aching body tell me it must have done.
Teaching is tremendously rewarding and uplifting at times but working with children all day is mentally exhausting.Things are even more stressful as our school has merged with another school and there are to be thirty eight redundancies across the board.As I am just a few years too young to take voluntary redundancy without it affecting my pension, so I am spending the weekend filling in an appliction for my job.We have to have an interview and then wait until the end of term to find out if we are employed or not.
I've thrown a few pity parties for myself,felt angry,sad,sick,ill,weepy and today I am Pollyanna.There are thousands of people going through similar situations,life is a recession.This is the way it is and non of it's life threatening.So that said,I am going get rid of the grey in my hair,sort out my diet(.We were laughing at school yesterday saying that they will have to widen the doorways if this goes on much longer, as we are all comfort eating for England and blaming our thyroids) and generally stop moping about.Fortunately I have the shop to distract me,sadly not enough to employ me full time as both son and husband also draw a wage from the business.Anyway,hope you and yours are well and happy.
Forget the week and have a great weekend
