Froglet Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 And you Sunnyday! We are back to school after the long weekend - our 'proper' Easter holiday starts at the end of that week. So today I am planning to blitz the school work (if I actually get started on it...), finish defrosting the freezer and bake some hot cross bun scones (discovered a new recipe to try) and then will take 3 lovely days off for baking, crafting, playing and walking. Of course today has turned out to be a glorious blue sky day so I think a walk round the park is a must at some point! 3 Quote
lsp Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Happy Easter to everyone. We are off for 2 weeks - and a day! Important that day. Its the day I will do work paperwork. I promise - the only one. :1b 3 Quote
mundia Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 It's such a beautiful day here today I've been out cutting back all the winter growth revealing lovely new growth, watching the hatching tadpoles and planting out the peas. Shame it isn't going to last. We never go away at Easter, always 'garden' weekend for us, but happy hols too. 4 Quote
sunnyday Posted March 25, 2016 Author Posted March 25, 2016 Yes we are busy in the garden today too! :1b (I've just popped indoors to make tea - Mr S informs me this is a scheduled tea break!) ::1a 2 Quote
SueJ Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Looking forward to the break - it's a lovely day down south and so have spent ages in the garden - no mileage in trying to get anywhere as the bank holiday traffic down here is always awful. Forecast for tomorrow is pretty rubbish so have scheduled end of year book keeping for that day - ;-( Family round for Easter day though and I am soooooooo looking forward to chocolate having given it up for Lent ;-) 1 Quote

Froglet Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 Gorgeous dog! Could be a friend for my brother's new addition - Tyas - photo to follow (it's on my phone which is updating at the moment!)! Well, I finally made it to an Easter holiday after a really challenging and emotional term. I have promised myself only to work until I go to visit my sister in the middle of next week but to be honest right now I'm in my pyjamas, nursing an aching back and a sore, swollen throat - I think my body gave up and fell apart in the last 4 days!

Froglet Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 This is Tyas - worn out after a hard day's playing! 5 Quote
sunnyday Posted April 2, 2016 Author Posted April 2, 2016 Oh very sweet young Froglet :1b Hope you are feeling better soon....... Last week was all about gardening and catching up with old friends - next week I have to get on with the old TDL ::1a 2 Quote
lsp Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 - next week I have to get on with the old TDL ::1a What would we do without your old TDL Sunny??? It always makes me feel that I am not alone in this world we call childcare. :wub: 2 Quote
sunnyday Posted April 5, 2016 Author Posted April 5, 2016 What would we do without your old TDL Sunny??? It always makes me feel that I am not alone in this world we call childcare. :wub: I know I'm so predictable ::1a I'm not getting very well - right must get off here and get on with it - if you see me back here before 5pm shoot me! Quote
sunnyday Posted April 5, 2016 Author Posted April 5, 2016 Well I'm back much earlier that 5pm Have been working on my list for September - am now on the verge of a nervous breakdown - I have far too many children - now I know that is a very good 'problem' to have (well that's what I'm telling myself)........but what to do? I think I know really - but I don't enjoy disappointing anyone Quote
sunnyday Posted April 5, 2016 Author Posted April 5, 2016 Too many for ratio if I continue to take from 2 yrs 6 months - that's why I said that i know what I need to do really...... Well that statement is not entirely correct - but as you know I like to work well over ratio...... Would certainly make it all easier to work out if I make the decision that I will only take from aged 3 - but then I find myself worrying about those parents that think their children will be joining me in September - mind you - that is only their assumption - I haven't told them that...... Also I think 'well that's all very well' for this year but what about September 2017 - d'you know perhaps I just let September 2017 take care of itself...... Any suggestions would be gratefully received :1b Quote

Then you can take a few more. :1b :1b :1b We used to work 'well over ratio' ...but recently things have changed and not for the good. I want to go back to a happy place Quote
