It's 8:43am, on a Monday. The last Monday I'll be able to sip iced coffee and watch old episodes on TV...whomp whomp. School starts this week.
Listening to Happy Endings. I love the random TV over here in the UK in the morn, Before this was a 2011 episode of Glee. So sad that Happy Endings was cancelled though, such a cute show.
Loving, is it sad that it took me a while to think of something for this one? I've been to the gym for the last two days and have really worked on my abs, so now they are sore. I swear if I squint my eyes I can just about see my stomach shrinking.
Thinking, the caretaker's wife just FB messaged me to let me know school was open today. I went in on Friday and was the only person there! I was doing things for 6 hours, not that you'd be able to tell. My room still seems empty and disorganised. I tell you what, I hate changing rooms! The caretaker told me he wasn't going to open school today, so I booked a massage and plan on getting some new BTS clothes (yes, like I am a child). But now...I know school is open, do I go back in?
Wanting, I'm sure all of you feel the same way as me at the end of summer. Where does the time go?
Needing to chill out. I haven't stopped stressing about school since we got out. I guess a classroom move, new year group and reading teacher blogs will do that to you.
3 trips, the hubs and I want to do a bit of travelling this year before we start thinking about having kidlets. We want to go to Cambodia/Vietnam this summer. If possibly we'd also love to go to Columbia, where my bro-in-law lives. New Zealand seems amazing. I've only ever heard good things about it, so it's definitely high on my list.
Thanks for linking up. If you stick with me, I might actually try and be less sporadic about blogging...maybe.

Good luck with back to school! If you make it to New Zealand, make sure you visit Australia too - we certainly have the BEST beaches
ReplyDeleteHi Brooke,
DeleteMy husband and I love Aus! He has family on the Gold Coast. I keep trying to persuade him to move to sunnier climates!

Nice to 'meet' you Becky! My travelling buddy has just gotten back from 2 years in the UK and we were chatting about the differences the other day- find it so strange that you have to wait for the custodian to open up for you! But it's awesome in a way because you can't just go in at the drop of a hat. Hope it all goes smoothly.

Hi Bec,
DeleteThanks for linking up. I wish I had access to my room in the summer because it always feels like such a rush to get things sorted. I don't think teachers over here are as crazy and obsessed with their rooms as they are in the states (and I don't mean that in a mean way).
Becky
What grade do you teach? I am assuming that the caretaker is like a custodian here in US? And yes, travel as much as you can before those kiddos come!

Hi Michelle,
DeleteI'm about to start teaching 4th grade. Our caretaker is like a custodian in the states, but he actually lives in a house at the school (poor him!). Thanks so much for stopping by!
Becky
Happy New School Year!
