Linda’s #SoCS prompt this week:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “blue.” Talk about the first blue object you see when you sit down to write your post. Have fun!
As I read the prompt and began to write, Celebrity Masterchef was on my telly, and the first thing I saw was a set of blue aprons on the screen. As I had been reading, I hadn’t paid any attention to what was happening on screen, but glancing up, I saw the royal blue coloured aprons and two ‘chefs’ carrying millefueilles to the table to be judged. They looked good!
Then the blue light on my USB hub for my new Macbook Air drew my attention to the backup that was occurring at the same time as I was typing.
It’s the end of my second week with my new class, and I am far from blue. The kids have settled down pretty well, all things considered, and despite some ups and downs with staffing, things have been okay!
Well, that’s a really odd #SoCS this week!
But I Smile Anyway...

So far… Got staffing issues though now, which isn’t helping… 😢

Oh, no! Well… we do, too. At lunch we have to brush teeth, change any diapers and have children use the bathroom, and set up all the nap mats. We only have two teachers to do all that, and all the other staff have to take a break then. Plus, there is only one children’s toilet, and no sink in the classroom. 😩 If we get that worked out, all is good. Always a glitch to work out.

One of my assistants had emergency surgery at the end of the year last year. She came back a well, but ended up in hospital again…

What I love about this is how certain words can trigger you to look at things differently – which is how you suddenly noticed all those “blue” things that are all around you!

Blue is my favorite color, but as I look up from my laptop, I see nothing blue, only bright colors! Glad your school kids are settled in!
