Panders Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 On this occasion, having given due consideration to the fact that it being half term, one's excitement level had obviously risen and Isp had become over wrought - I feel she should be duly and unreservedly forgiven in view of the fact that she was in support of young Froglet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseketeer Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I have soooo much paperwork to catch up on from last few weeks of staffing issues, so much it's one of those 'where do I start'...so instead of doing anything other than spending hours on an EHCP I ordered a skip and filled it ...think there will be a lot of of where's this, where's that next week :-/ Back to Wednesday and probably the TDL...at least it's only a few weeks till Easter :-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 I know. I had a reduced sort of TDL but unfortunately we had a health issue with elderly relative over the weekend which has resulted in having a guest all week - who CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING! They are getting really frustrated and hate being a burden. Luckily they have iPad and Facebook to be able to keep in touch with extended family. Everything health wise is fine now just waiting for ears to be sorted and they will feel safe enough to go home. It's our first experience of this kind of 'care' and quite eye opening of how vulnerable we get as we get older. Sorry, bit deep for first thing in the morning. Good news, they are fine!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Hi Isp glad they are on the mend, and yes it is a huge wake up call on how our bodies begin to let us down!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Well I'll be honest - I'm beginning to regret my 'preschool strike' as it's turning out very expensive. So far a have purchased a shiny new laptop (although now waiting impatiently for it to be delivered) About to order a nice new sewing machine- may have spent perhaps a little too much on that one- so my finger is still hovering over the final click button :rolleyes: And the heating has just packed up- so may spend the whole day under a duvet watching TV (well I shall go shopping first and buy lots of nice treat first :lol: ) Happy Wednesday everybody. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louby loo Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Go for it Louby - you deserve it and I am really really really sure that you can justify every single penny spent!!! Yes I've created a form which says what I've spent and how it will impact my learning outcomes home-life ::1a ::1a 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 My sewing machine has forgotten how to do zig zag. Of course now that it can't any more, that's what I want it to do most! Well, it is over 40 I suppose. Mind you, the old early electric singer that I gave away when I inherited this one probably can still do zig zag! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant change my stich length on mine I want to do small zigzagging around felt ::1a . I do have a back-up Lidle maching which I have to say is really good value machine at about £70... however I do have to confess I'm a bit of a sewing machine snob and find it a bit to noisy :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 I haven't had my machine out for a while. Actually could get it out at the weekend and tick something off TDL. Had a box of 'bits' sitting in the corner, ready to make some writing belts for outdoor area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyday Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Still have not even looked at SEF!! Now thinking it may have to wait for the Easter holiday!! Just go into it - update how many children you currently have and consider it updated and leave the real update to when you feel 'stronger' ::1a (well that's the sort of thing I do anyway!) :rolleyes: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LKeyteach Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I'm having time at home too. moved to electronic register so don't have to worry bout getting those printed! Sef well that can wait. Sorting out- pah! Do need to do some maintenance but really can't be bothered. Have lots of boxes at home that need sorting through so that's what I am doing during half term. and catching up with you lovely peps. Have had a bit of gruesome time (fill you in when it is over but is work related) and so gave not kept up with you all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Well it's official - getting on with the old TDL is completely over-rated....... Thought - right I will at least get the invoices done today.......started to print the first one - uh oh - a paper jam in the printer........some half an hour later - the printer has been in several bits (oh should have said I seem to have instructions in Spanish and German only ) my fingers are ink-stained and I had to employ some skilled work with tweezers.......think I have cleared it........but now have decided I need a cup of tea to get over the 'trauma' :lol: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LKeyteach Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Well done for excellent work with tweezers. don't forget to add to your Sef. Mgmt & leadership. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, not as useless as my son's generation at sewing it would seem my DIL unable to mend, hem anything, they weren't taught to apparently! That's not a criticism by the way, just a general observation. I did mange to cobble together a nightdress in year 9, but never wore it :wacko: ::1a ::1a 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigzag Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Well am sat at computer, have completed the EYPP forms, have printed out new name labels, done my next steps and learning journeys and am trying to prepare myself to look at the SEF. But then I started looking at pinterest then I came on here and am now running out of excuses, and as I am barely able to sew a button on, let alone create any of the wonderful items that you clever people do, I really think the time has come!!....I'll be back! :blink: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 We seem to be on a similar pattern here Zigzag. May pop in to have a mouch around the SEF, but need to pop into town first, see you later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
