Yesterday, what a day!
Obviously, I had the lovely part, which was my anniversary, but then the nerve wracking bit, my observations, loomed too!
After battling with Lil Princess at 3.30am and not getting back to sleep until 5am, I was awoken by the house phone ringing at 5.45am! It was my parents calling from their holiday, to wish us a happy anniversary.. But could I find the actual handset? It was tucked away in the study!
I was hoping for a few moments more of sleep but it wasn’t to be… So I switched my alarm off, and trudged downstairs to get ready for the day ahead.
The observation went well, in the end, really well! We got Good, and I am happy with that! Who wants Outstanding? There is nowhere to aim if you hit perfection straight away, right?!
The evening brought a night of takeaway, as we will celebrate the anniversary on the weekend. But I was so tired I fell asleep without a thought for the kids lunches, the dishes etc!
Hubby Dearest tried not to wake me as he got the bed ready but I woke up, and thought I’d better get prepared, with the kids lunch requirements… Doing it in the morning is such a drag!
Off to bed I went…
This morning,I hesitantly opened an eye… I’d heard no kids, the cat had miaowed once…and it was daylight… Wait, that’s not right…my alarm goes off when it’s pitch black!
The phone tells me it’s 7.22am, and I usually get to school, for 7.30!!! Sh*t!!! The alarm!!
Yesterday I had switched it off, and it’s one of those recurring alarms!
Cue me running around like a headless chicken screaming to then kids to wake up,and get dressed!
All I can say is Thank God I made the lunches last night!!!!
We got into school within half an hour, so I wasn’t too late, but it made for a fraught start to the day!
Needless to say, the alarm has been checked, and I am all prepared for tomorrow… I think!
Have a good night Peeps!
But I Smile Anyway...
