Well that’s it….

One more day then I’ll officially have finished my first full academic year as a teacher!

It’s been a colourful year…

Many ups and downs. From a class that was really hard work, to a team who were possibly slightly resistant to change. From inspectors to high expectations … but I got there!

It was, I quote, “a baptism of fire” but I’m still here to tell them tale!

A smile on my face every day helped get through, and supportive people around me.

I look forward to the summer holidays. No,I won’t forget school totally. I’ll still need to go in. Classrooms don’t get themselves ready! But only for a couple of days!

But I feel positive. I feel GOOD!

And whatever September brings, BRING IT ON!!! I’ll be ready!

In the meantime I can spent quality time with my family and my blogily!

R and R the way I like it!

‘Til tomorrow Peeps!

I rarely look at my stats anymore. Blogging is a joy for me nowadays, rather than a number crunching pressure. But a few minutes ago I decided to have a little look at them, and I saw this…

I hit over 100,000 views! That’s a bit mad! Wow!!!

FRIDAY FICTION with RONOVAN WRITES Prompt Challenge #34-Holiday

Friday gave me Ronovan’s Fiction Prompt, but as I have been a little out of sorts (read totally exhaustipated!) I was unable to get my head into gear.

The prompt word was Holiday.

So I decided to take a break too this week. Lara is having a holiday! She will be back next week, full of bumbling exploits with her crew.

Sorry… Cheesy excuse, but I seriously am so tired, that the old brain isn’t quite ticking as well as usual!

I sat with my computer on for hours, in front of me, and not one word formed when it came to Lara, so I figured, rather than feed you an awful chapter, we can have a break, and by then I will be on holiday too, and hopefully refreshed, I can get Lara’s story going again!
