Thursday

Good morning, everyone.  The sun is shining, it's warm inside without the heating, all's right with my morning so far!

After I wrote yesterday's blog, I remembered that I had arranged to go into school wearing my governor's hat to visit Y1 as I'm the social governor for Y1.  So I shelved the other plans and did just that, having an extremely enjoyable time watching phonics and then literacy.  It felt just like coming home as I taught Y1 for just about all of my teaching life and it is where I feel most comfortable.  It was fab.

Then I came home, did my ironing, did some housework and then Beth had some visitors.

It's probably the right time to explain that when Beth was made redundant early this year, she decided that she would explore turning Kitty Stitches into a proper one person company.  She did all the paperwork, got all the necessary insurance and so on, got it OK-ed with the benefits people as 'gainful employment' or whatever the term is and so on.

I have turned over my box room (which was really only used as a dumping ground) into a small work room for her, hence the ongoing clearing, sorting and reorganising which was somewhat interrupted by other family stuff but we will get there, eventually!

Anyway, Beth is making a memory quilt for someone pout of old clothes and the person in question came round to look at what she's done, bring some more clothes over, etc, hence the visitors.  I just say and knitted!

So - from time to time, despite this being an advert free zone, I will feature things that Beth is selling for your edification!

Right - back to usual stuff.
I have the second visit into school today, back to Y1, the reason being that one class has two teachers so I will be meeting the second teacher today, the one who wasn't in yesterday.  I believe I will also be watching PE.  Fun!

Then I will do  some shopping, get to the shoe shop and maybe also pop into town for the prescription.  Get it all done in one fell swoop, as they say.

After that, it is planning, tuition, a quick weigh in and then the first pottery session.  It's a busy day today!
The quick weigh in is because the hall we usually use is being used as a polling station so Jennifer is using one of the small rooms and will have the scales out from around five to eight for people to just pop in to be weighed.

Well, with all that on the agenda, I had better get started, hadn't I?  Have a good day, everyone.  xx
