Saturday

 Good morning, one and all.  Welcome to the weekend, especially if you work and the weekend means a bit of chilling and relaxing.

Yesterday was one of those happy days.  SW group was, as always, fun, I won the raffle (again) and brought home a shedload of cans and packets and weigh-in was a happy experience!
It didn't take too long to tidy the house and I changed the sheets so getting into bed last night was lovely.
Finally, I had a lovely talk with Natalie on my governor's visit, looked at some work, did a short observation and went through some stuff from the Self Evaluation plan with her.  Now I have a report to write up.

Unfortunately, I've had a bad night's sleep.  Why I woke at two and couldn't get back to sleep is beyond me but there you go, it happens from time to time.  It's our group walk this morning which will keep me awake and I have no specific plans this afternoon apart from writing up that report so I can chill and snooze, if I need to.

This evening, of course, is Strictly - I always look forward to that.

It's short and sweet today as my brain is on strike right now.  I might go back to bed and see if I can snatch a couple more hours sleep - even a bit would help.
Have a lovely day, everyone.  xx

  3. Oh I hate when that happens! I was awake at 3 this morning. I must have dropped off about 5 so when I got up at 8 I was really groggy. Also looking forward to Strictly tonight xxx

    1. It's very boring, isn't it? A real drag.

      I wonder who will go this week. xx

  4. Getting into a freshly made bed is the best feeling ever isn't it. What sort of cans and packets did you win?

    1. It feels like a real treat.
      I won cans of pulses, baked beans, chopped tomatoes, and bottle of drink, a can of tuna, some stock cubes, a stock pot and two alpen bars. I took a photo and will post it in tomorrow's blog.

    Are you responsible for a specific subject or age group as a governor? xx

  6. I'm a bit late commenting on this one , but that does mean I can say ' wasn't Strictly good?' but I was a bit shocked at Ellie and Johannes low score!

    1. I am and I'm not - I didn't think it was very good really but that really was low. However, I thought Hamza was over-marked. xx
