Here it is.......... another Friday!

 

Shame it's the end of our half-term break........well if you don't count the weekend that is :1b

 

Have just checked the old TDL - all 'ticked off' (apart from the online training :ph34r:)

 

Hope everyone has had a good week and that you all a great weekend! :1b

Thank you Sunnyday. I have had a good week - eaten far more cake than I should have done (I didn't actually think it was possible to say that!). TDL is done and I am currently writing a proposal to have a co-chair of governors role before meeting a friend for tea and... more cake! this afternoon.

Wow - thank crunchie it's Friday - I am totally cream crackered :o :lol:

 

Excitement in my setting is reaching fever pitch now :ph34r: :lol:

 

Mr S has been busy working on my kitchen this week - I know you can't make an omelette without cracking a few eggs - but I am knee deep in sawdust, there seems to be paint 'everywhere' - I started a big clean up and he keeps saying "oh no I still need that" or "I will need that when I start the dining room" :o he almost certainly won't be starting the dining room this side of Crimbo........anyway must get off here and see what I can get rid off while he's not watching! ;)

I echo your thoughts Sunnyday, my patience is being stretched to the limit by some unwanted behaviour from my usual suspects and there has been a sudden increase in "empty it all out and put it somewhere else" type play, my transporters will be the death of me, I swear.

Funny, I was thinking of this thread earlier and then you updated it. I have been at home today, a couple of weeks ago my headteacher came upon me having a mini-rant one morning and after talking to me about how overwhelmed and tired I was feeling insisted I book one of my non-contact days and that I must take it at home and use it to catch up on all the little things that haven't been getting done because of things like having a student, extra risk assessments for a trip etc. So, today has been that day and it has been so good. I got up when I was ready (which was 7am as opposed to the 5.30 I've been waking at) and have just focused on finishing jobs rather than just fire fighting. The TDL is still just as long of course but I'm going to work for another hour tonight and it should lessen the pressure over the weekend. There is a slim chance my relatives might even get some presents!!

Oh thank goodness, I thought it might be just us! I have this idea that everyone else is enjoying an idelic pre Christmas run up! I was literally nearly on my knees when I walked out yesterday and was really thinking oh my god we still have one more week to go....

I even resorted to removing the hollow blocks from the playroom for the last week as they seem to have forgotten how to play safely with them! Keep thinking we are doing something wrong as whatever we provide is not really engaging them, they are just wanting to run around. But after reading this maybe it is not us and is just the time of year! Have been SO lazy today and not moved far from the sofa and a box set! Just trying to reserve some energy for next week.

Enjoy the weekend everyone and look forward to posting on this thread next Friday!

That's what I like about this site. You read posts and realise that you're not the only one going through it. We have had waves of bugs and have become such experts that we can predict who will be off next. Our ones start with tears and go down hill from then.

One more week to go! ;)

I'm free! :lol:

 

Finished today with a lovely, lovely Christmas Party :1b

One of my three year old girls said to her mummy "this is the best day ever"! - How sweet is that :1b

 

Not too much on the jolly TDL either which is great - might have a bash at that tomorrow and then pack all thoughts of Pre-school away until the New Year........

 

Now to sort out own Christmas - everything bought (I hope) but nothing wrapped yet - no tree either, another job for tomorrow! :rolleyes:

 

Happy end of term for all those who have now finished and commiserations to those of you who will be battling on into next week

Phew! That's all I need to say. It has been a long week only because I normally only to 4 days and this I have done 5 full days with the children due to staff sickness. But actually really enjoyed 'just' being a childcare worker. I do not mean that to be offensive to anyone. I shut the office door and played on the floor, sang christmas songs (including adapting and making up silly ones), read stories and yes - had fun!!

Whoohoo!! Another triumphant Nativity success!! I know many of you don't go in for it , but........it was SO brilliant!! So all 'pain' is now swept away ( a bit like childbirth) and I am feeling Christmassy and relaxed!!! : )

 

Have a very nice break everyone - 3 weeks off......... because we're worth it! : )

I'm done (I know it's not Friday but it feels like one)! Such a long last couple of days although they were nice - so many poorly children - I was down to 65% attendance on one day. I sort of wished that we didn't have fun things planned for yesterday as there were clearly some children who really weren't well but were desperate to come to school for the party.

Yes my granddaughter missed out this year. They ought to have finished last Friday in my opinion. They were exhausted poor things and half her class off with D&V. Not much fun in that - and of course, ready to spread it to other members of families who are visiting - someone's festivities are bound to be spoiled. :wacko:
