Why/how does Monday get here so fast?

I swear, the last few weekends have gone in a flash! 

This weekend we spent a day standing out in the cold, supporting Lil Man and his team in a go kart tournament. There was a team of 6 children chosen to build from scratch an electric go kart, using eco friendly materials, and decorate it. All a form of teamwork, and plenty of opportunity for Learning about engineering and science.

They won Smartest Team, which was cool. But he wasn’t a happy bunny, as in his race, he got clipped from behind, quite severely, and the other car which was behind him, got pushed on in front… Competitive nature means he was devastated that he lost his third place…
A whole day in fresh air mean that we were all shattered and early night were needed by all!image

Sunday, no rest for  the wicked!

 It was Father’s Day, but I needed to catch up on housework, and grocery shopping, then get the homework whip out and crack it too.

This brought on a headache, so I slipped a 2 hour nap in!

Dinner, we went out, for a lovely meal with my in laws to celebrate Father’s Day, and visited the new dessert parlour in town, Creams…

But I was so full…. I could hardly move! I had cramp from too much ice cream!!

I was so thankful for the mountain of ironing I had to do, so the food had time to go down!

But it meant another nearly midnight bedtime…

And here comes Monday… Again!

Still, reports are more or less done, and there are five weeks of term left. We still have our class seaside trip to look forward to, Lil Man has his residential trip, (first time away from us , eeeeek! Don’t get me started!) and his prom!

Where has this year gone?!

Right, I’d better be off! Enjoy your Monday Peeps!!!!

    Monday, Friday just days of the week, I work 7 days a week for lat 8 years, so it seems interesting to me when people favor one day of the week over an other

      True. .. I’m a mother as well as a teacher. I’ve had no day off for 11 years…
      But Monday is added responsibilities for me… looking after 40 3/4 year olds that aren’t my own. When you’re tired it is that much harder…
      No favourite day per se… I’ve forgotten what a lie in is!

    I know what you mean Sis. Last weekend we had the wonderful Bash and this weekend I worked right through. I did manage to spend some time with the family on Saturday at mum’s as it was her birthday.I can now relax and chill out a bit as I have this week off! Hopefully, I will get back my blogging routine!
