Better today than yesterday but no where in the realms of good.
Here is a sneek peek at why today was not so good.
7ish wake up, no time for breakfast generally grumpy.
7:45 Catch bus :) (Things are looking up)
8ish- See a colleague at the bus stop and she asks me to watch her 10 yr old and her friend while she goes to get a bus pass. As she's walking away she says If a bus comes catch it. I thought ok. Bus comes the girls, Oli and I catch the bus.
8:10ish-Get a panicky phone call from colleague... Do i have the girls? Say of course Claire asked me to take them. (Apparently miscommunication) she meant me to get on the bus and not to worry about the girls. All is smoothed over.
8:35- Go to staff room to relax and have breakfast. See on the notice board that my prep time has been taken away and rescheduled for Friday and there is a surprise book look to see if we are indeed teaching and marking properly today. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR to senior management.
8:40 Just about to go on playground duty and realised that the supply teacher for my partner class hasn't showed up.
8:41 Talked to head and realised she indeed hasn't but arranged that I would register the class in the meantime.
9:10 Still no supply teacher. I'm teaching 2 classes at the same time. Still waiting for supply teacher. Managed to get another teacher to take the other class to do the activity.
9:50 Obtained estimated time of arrival for the supply teacher..... NEVER! no one is on their way.
10:00 arranged for class to be covered.
The rest of the day... very stressful it seems as though my children are deaf today either that or thick.
Feeling better now that I just got home from a lovely cuppa hot cocoa with Jess.
I need a holiday.

I LOVE the part about you taking the kids with you on the bus. Thinking about that is going to make me laugh at random times for the next few days. Thanks!
