down, one more to go before my boss is back. Well, there’s the weekend too, but that doesn’t count.
Children delivered to school fainting with hunger as they neglected to tell me they couldn’t open the chocolate bread until 50 minutes into our 60 minute journey. Sigh. Could have been the foul mood I was in meant they didn’t want to speak to me 😕
Work slightly surreal, and the stiff neck I’ve had for the last week spread steadily down my back today as I dealt with a number of not quite crisis situations. And then someone parked a lorry across the M62 one way and some cars artistically the other and all the roads from work to school jammed up. Bigger sigh. But I wasn’t the only parent rushing to get their on time, and the kids were fine. Big has been doing poetry and I started reciting bits at her – so who else knows
“if you can keep your head”
or
“two roads diverged in a yellow wood”?
I thought they were standards. I thought everyone would know them. No? Maybe I have a more well rounded education than I thought. There you go then.
eta oh, and Christmas is evil. I had decided that I didn’t want anything for Christmas this year, and then all these companies are sending me emails….
I may create a wishlist. Starting with Sock & Glove and moving on to Knitted Icons: 25 Celebrity Doll Patterns
. If I promise to use the first one to make recycled presents, does that make it acceptable? 😉
