My week has been upended by someone going off sick, my family are driving me nuts, and I have too much to do and not enough hours in which to do any of it... must be time for Scrabble, then

DS:GD grump

Sad, I appoint you my lawyer with instructions to keep me out of there.


I've had queasy-weasy insides all day, the result of making sarnies on Sunday from Saturday's kebab leftovers.

Still, if I'd bought it in Scotland

If it's what I think it is, then nice try but it was never going to work...

Hope you're feeling better.

I've been out to lunch and shopping and feel slightly guilty... But only slightly.

Evening chums!

I've had a fab day taking the boy and a mate dan sarf to look at a university they both liked the sound of. The loved it and so did I. I quite fancy a PhD in something completely useless actually. Dr Batgirl has a ring to it... and I can do the Heimlich thingy already.

Evening all... stressed Got to deliver training tomorrow and not liking the prospect, plus it's robbed me of my only office time this week

I suppose I'll miss all this when they make us all redundant

What you have to do, Sad, is compare it to how stressed you were in your old job... better or worse?
Know what you mean, though - I've got admin coming out of my ears, but the classroom *has* to come first, and fambly, and.... oh, just about anything else, really!

Two exam days down, one to go. And parents night at the end of it, FFS!

I'm getting updates from the net as I go along and have been throughout the day. Assignment all submitted this morning but she complained everyone was asleep and she thought it was 'cause she forgot the lollipops! Was also cold and foggy all day so that might have done it.

It's happier stress, or at least it was until a few weeks ago - now, the whole team are downhearted and we won't know for a few weeks yet where our fate lies. Bummer, but we go on.

On balance though... family before work, every time

Afternoon Good news, that annoying student who was in my marketing research group will be in a different group, the lecturer put her into a different group as there was one with only 2 students and there has to be at least 3 in a group! I take my hat off to my lecturer *removes hat* Think she deserves a lollipop herself for that one
