“I can see you…” Say’s Cat to Bird, and Bird to Cat…
This is what they do, spend time staring at each other! Strange creatures, but we do love em!

Linda’s prompt for #SoCS this week:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “vol.” Find a word with “vol” in it, and use it in your post. Have fun!
Volume – My hair has far too much volume at the moment. I got shorter layers cut into it in the holidays, and now, being naturally curly, it decides to do some wonderful things at night, so when I wake up, I look like I’ve been dragged through the hair backwards!
And the thing is, I don’t wash my hair every day. It’s something I’ve never done. With all the Indian superstitions regarding girls and hair washing, I’d never get a chance, if I believed them all! If I was to wash it every day, instead of the twice a week I have grown accustomed to, then the Bed head would be a thing of the past!
I was told as a child, to never wash my hair on a Thursday as I only have the one brother, and it would be bad luck for him.
Then when I got married a few other days were added to the mix, as my Mother In Law is quite the believer!
So Tuesdays and Saturdays went out of the window too, and I don’t even know why!
What’s even sillier?
Sikhs aren’t supposed to believe in superstitions!
But to be honest, my hair isn’t greasy, and I can’t be floofed with washing and drying every day. It gets cold in the winter too, and Hat head is no lesser evil than Bed head! Letting your wet hair dry under a woolly hat makes for an interesting look, believe me!
I’m grateful for my voluminous locks, to be honest. Many pay a lot of money for curls, yet God graced me with mine from the moment I was born!
So, do you know why I can’t wash my hair on a Tuesday or a Saturday? Or do you have your own hairwashing superstitions you can add to these?

“ICT – You’ll never get the better of me! (Hopefully…)” – Ritu
I can do most simple things on a computer, and have surprised myself with what I have achieved on my blog the last few years too.
Today I am tackling a video issue…
I will not give up! It’s my task for tonight!
And considering I am going to be monitoring ICT in school, as part of my Governors role, I think that’s a good thing!

Linda’s #SoCS – Stream Of Consciousness Saturday prompt is:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “motive.” Use the word “motive,” in any form, in your post. Enjoy!
Motive
Emotive
Motivate
Locomotive
Automotive
Promotive
What a word you gave us Linda.
My brain is like a pile of mush at the moment, after the first week back at school.
I read it, and thought, what was the motive of Linda’s for giving us such a prompt?
Following that thought, I just listed words that had motive in them!
But then there will be those of you who are writing, and may take the word and fly with what your character’s motives are for what they are doing in your book.
Or you may think of a favourite character or villain in a film and question their motives.
Then there is the chance you might decide to think about someone you know, and wonder what their motives are for actions they might have taken recently…
What is the motive for me to write this post?
Because I always like a challenge, and I have been taking part in Linda’s challenge for like FOREVER!
Oh yes… this is a total stream of consciousness… possibly even bordering on unconsciousness lol!
Ok, I’m off to hole up in my bed again… and cradle my poor bruised foot… thankfully the swelling is much better!
Happy Saturday Peeps!

“Bring on the crying!” – Ritu
For Linda’s #1LinerWeds challenge.
Today, we will have the nursery (kindergarten) children in for an hour sans parents.
I think I should pack earplugs. There is bound to be a certain amount of screaming/crying/tantrums, as the children are left with us for the first time… and that’s just the parents! 😉
But seriously, yesterday was not too bad: one crier in the morning and one in the afternoon. There are some special needs children who we have to watch out for – that’ll be interesting!
Language as always will be an issue – English (obviously), Polish, Slovakian, Hungarian, Turkish, Lithuanian, Punjabi, Urdu – those are the ones I can remember off hand!
But I’m ready!
And nest week I take responsibility of the Reception class for two days a week too.. May be slightly more frazzled then!
Have a Happy Hump Day Peeps!
But I Smile Anyway...
