i usually flake out at 10-11pm, its usual for Hubby Dearest to come into our bedroom, gently take my iPad/book out of my hands, and switch the lights off, as I’m am knocked out.
Last night, however, I retired early, knowing my big day is coming, but could I sleep?! Heck no!
It got to 11.45pm, and my mind was still buzzing. I had to switch on lights and read again, then I put it down, but still no sleep came.
At 1am, Sonu Singh joined us on the bed, but rather than the foot of the bed, he was tight by my side, wanting gentle tickles, and that was me up again!
It was hot, I was sandwiched between Hubby Dearest and Kitty, unable to move properly, for fear of chucking the cat on the floor!
I finally landed in Sleepytown, only for my alarm to beep at 6am… Oh really??!!
Anyway, it’s here, my big da you!
I’m exvited, nervously excited. So starts the cycle of early starts, and staff meetings, assessment and planning, but best of all having a class of my own!
Ok, so I’m starting gently… It’s Inset day, which means no kids, us Teachers are being taught today, so tomorrow will be the main day, but heigh ho! Off I go!!
Toodleoo, my lovely readers! I’ll catch up soon!!!

I have already mentioned this week, how mum’s sometimes want a break, but it doesn’t mean that they no longer want to be mum… they just need a change, once in a while…
Know this book? It’s a great story about a little boy, wrapped up in his own fantasy land, when he has been sent up to his room… well, today, I found this on the book store, and HAD to get it!
This is about a mum who has just had enough… And her journey, via a bubble bath, to the Land of Where The Wild Mums Are!!! Oh she parties, dances, balances drinks on her head, and gets crowned Queen of The Wild Mums, but knows when she’s had her break, and needs to get back to her reality…
Fantastic!
I read it to my kids and explained that though mummies love their families very much, even they sometimes need a break… Hint, hint!!!
OMG!!! CBA Again!!!!! I am Thunderstruck, Once More!!!

OMG! Lush!!!
Recently I went to a birthday gathering, and my niece had produced these huge, plump, juicy mouthfuls if delight… And you couldn’t stop at one, oh no, one would never be enough!!!
So it just had to be done!!!
And if you eat enough you get one of your five a day too, isn’t that right???
Well, I need to taste one, to make sure it’s ok…
Oh yes! That definitely hit the spot!!!
(And, yes, I know, it’ll probably hit my waistline soon too!!)
