Wise Word Wednesday

Quotes-about-kidsI read this and it touched me.

That really is the unconditional love of pets.

But it’s also the unconditional love of young children too.

I’ve lost count of the times I have probably blown a fuse at the kids, and probably been a mean-ass mum, stressed out because of home, and work, and all manner of things, yet my Lil Man still comes up to me and hugs me and says “Don’t worry mummy, you’re still the best ever!”

I know I’m not, but just to hear that is the best feeling.

I will leave you with this thought…

In my culture, we think of young children as the face of God, unspoiled, innocent, open minded… They are a clean page when they are born. They know only good… the way they turn out is our doing… What kind of introduction are you going to write on the clean page of your child’s life book? It will have a bearing on their whole life story…

Happy Wednesday Peeps!

Deal with it!

images5X9EXBEXWell, update for the day…

Hey Peeps!

I sure hope you have had a smooth day!

I was all set to forget the crap of yesterday, and get on with today, fresh start and all, regarding my email issues, anyway.

Well… This morning, still no contact. This afternoon, still no contact. This evening, STILL no contact! I have contacted them around 8 times now using their contact form, and apart from once, they all say at the end that they will be in tough, VIA the account that is disabled! WTF???!!!

Even though I have given them the alternative email! And the phone number makes you go round and round then says they won’t deal with email issues on the phone, use the contact form!

Sorry Yahoo, you have lost one loyal user….

I have since, been desperately trying to get onto various email login connected sites, to change my primary email to my gmail one.  This, I think, is why I disappeared, or my face disappeared on my contact page, and on my comments, and also why you are having to moderate my innocent comments!

But at least I have secured my banking, and several other things.

And so to my day with the little lovelies… well, we had each group, morning and afternoon, for an hour without parents today.  It wasn’t as bad as I thought!

3 criers in the morning, but they were still ok. Humorous moment, when the little Chinese guy ran to mummy, and she was cuddling him, and tapping him, pointing at us and saying “Boobay! Boobay!” My colleague and I dutifully waved and said “Bub-bye!” too until we realised, after she said “No Boo bay!” pointing to the book bags that the children bring in. She wanted to take his home!  So not Boobay, as in bye, but Boobay as in Book Bag! Of course!

The afternoon heralded the arrival of the screamers! We had 2 boys crying, like they were in competition, but they seemed to stop after 10 minutes. A little girl was upset for about half the time, 30 minutes, until she went to the toilet, and then she was fine!

The hardest thing? Not being able to communicate with them all easily. I worked out that we have 4 English children in the morning, and 3 in the afternoon… the rest of the 40 are made up of Slovakian, Lithuanian, Polish, Albanian, African, and Punjabi, to name a few! At least I can communicate with the Punjabi children! 5 in the morning and 6 in the afternoon!

So, they went, relatively happily.  In fact most cried as they didn’t want to leave!

You think that was all?  Oh no, my IT issues did not end there.

Our WiFi is not working at school for some reason, and I have a specia app to use to log our children’s progress. I dutifully took photos of all the children this morning, to set their profiles up, then realised that the afternoon kids records were not there.

I came home where I have WiFi, and synced the app, only in order to lose the photos, but gain the afternoon kids names!

MAAAAYYN!!!!! This is just driving me crazy!!

One nice thing?  I think my paperwork is up to date, and my last class’s teacher has asked me to read her new class a story tomorrow, on their first day.  They are the children who were in nursery last year, and I feel touched that she would want me to read to them!

So, I am off to BREATH now!!

Take it easy Peeps! Luv Ya All!!

Tuesday Thoughts

13508

After the silliness of yesterday, with the email fiasco, I went to bed mentally exhausted, tired, I just want to get things back to normal!

So, I have emailed them, again this morning, hopefully they can sort stuff out for me, and today will be a better day!

My pupils will be trying to stay on their own for an hour without parents too, I am anticipating screaming, crying, and from a few, nonchalance…may need my earplugs today!

So have a positive day Peeps! Remember it’s a fresh start!

Happy Tuesday!

What a day!

Well, first official day of term has been and gone, and I was looking forward to it soooo much!

So thanks to Yahoo Mail for stressing me out first thing in the morning!

I got up, and perused my emails over a cup of tea, or I tried to, but it wouldn’t let me log on… Looks like I have been hacked, or rather my email has been hacked.

So apologies if I haven’t been on your blogs or read posts today, I can’t get my email alerts! And if you direct messaged me then again, couldn’t access my mail box.

I contacted the customer services, as directed, and kept getting a message at the end saying they would contact me… on the YAHOO account I couldn’t access!!!!!

Stupid people!

Finally at 6.30pm, after contacting them a 3rd time, I got a response, and am still to get access to my account! It is so frustrating, I never realised how much I rely on my account. I have been advised to not use Yahoo as it has been hacked so much, so I have now changed my contact email on here to a gmail address instead.

Then I went on to think I need to change my email contact in many places, and I will have to start somewhere, so I was updating those… great fun on a Monday night when I have so much to do!

And as for school…

It was a wonderful day, I think!

We met our new children, with parents today for an hour, each session, morning and afternoon.  I will never speak ill of children, they are all unique and special in their own way, but I can already see that the afternoon bunch are going to be an ‘interesting’ lot!  Both sessions have a lot of language issues, but the morning ones were pretty calm, and got on with things.  The afternoon ones, SHARING may be an issue!!! And very boisterous! Oh, and don’t get me started on possible special needs! And some are not even potty trained!

Tomorrow we will get them with no parents staying, so this will be the trying one!

The kids appeared to have a great day, and it was ended with their Dhol Drum lessons until 8pm… don’t know about them, but I am shattered now!!!!
