sunnyday Posted April 11 Author Posted April 11 Good morning - 'tis Friday How is everyone? I am going to have to send out search parties for young Froglet and Fm soon 🤣 no seriously, hope both are okay... Off to watch youngest granddaughter in 'Matilda' this afternoon - she has spent the week at a drama workshop type thingy - really looking forward to that. Hope the weekend is kind to all x 2 Quote
louby loo Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Afternoon all. A very non eventful week for me 😊, have had a few trips out with the GC, but only doing routine things! It is very quiet here I must agree, and like sunnyday hope everyone is well. I have a two night sleepover with the GD to look foward to tomorrow - I have been given a list of 'games we will be playing' and have been told we need to make passports! 🤣 Sunnyday have a lovely afternoon at Matilda xxx Have a good weekend all. 2 Quote
Froglet Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Ahhh, thank you both. I'm ok - just have been really busy and not doing anything very interesting to tell you all about. However, I do have some news... I have resigned from my job as of the end of this term. So I'm spending this week and next wrapping things up and setting them in order and then I am not in school for a bit. I'm going to take time to properly rest - it's been a very long time since I had a holiday without a school TDL to complete and then I'm gradually going to start doing other things and hopefully begin to find my sparkle again. I'm a strange mixture of looking forward to and being very apprehensive about it but it will definitely be a new experience with lots to learn from! 2 Quote
sunnyday Posted April 12 Author Posted April 12 Whoa young Froglet that is big news - are you moving to a different school - are you giving up teaching altogether? Whichever and whatever - I wish you nothing but the best going forward xxx 1 Quote
Froglet Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Thanks Sunnyday. For now I am just stopping. I want to spend a little more time with family whose circumstances have changed but am also going to take the opportunity to try some things out that I’ve had in mind for a while. 2 2 Quote
zigzag Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Goodness Froglet that is a huge decision. Good for you for making such a huge decision, I’m sure you will not regret it. Sometimes there just comes a point when you have to prioritise. I haven’t regretted leaving for one second and I really think that you instinctively know when that time comes. I wish you all the luck in the world for whatever the future brings. It’s been so great this week to have been able to do loads of jobs in the garden, feel like I have caught up a bit, and now the rain is here again! Sunnyday hope the performance was good. Happy weekend all. 1 Quote

Mouseketeer Posted April 16 Posted April 16 Wow Froglet! Well done in taking such a big decision, I wish you all the best with whatever comes next. Have a great weekend all, hopefully the weather isn’t too unkind. I’m impatiently waiting for our own little hatchling as new GC is due any day 🐣 2 3 Quote
sunnyday Posted April 18 Author Posted April 18 Good morning - 'tis Friday Oh Mousie - every good wish for the safe arrival of your 'little hatchling' ❤️ Matilda was really good (last Friday) - I want to know why my youngest granddaughter can learn lines and be absolutely word perfect and yet can't apply that to her weekly spellings 🤦♀️🤣 I am organising a little garden Easter egg hunt for the two youngest today - should be fun! Sunday lunch invitation to eldest son's house - looking forward to that. Happy Easter one and all x 2 Quote
louby loo Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Morning all. Mousie, hope it's not to long a wait! 🐣 Sunnyday great that the show went well. 🕺 I've just had our little Easter Egg hunt 🥚🥚🥚 🐥🐇 Hope everyone has a good weekend. x 1 1 Quote
SueFinanceManager Posted April 22 Posted April 22 @Mouseketeer Any News 🐣 - Really hope all is well. Easter weekend flew by with 2 days of lovely weather and 2 of ok/bit chilly weather Managed to see most of the family over the weekend either in real life or via FaceTime so that was nice. Hubby and I shared one normal sized bar of Lindt Hazelnut chocolate so were were very good on the chocolate front - bottles of wine??? Maybe not so much 🤣 Have a good short week one and all xx 3 2 Quote

Froglet Posted Friday at 12:38 Posted Friday at 12:38 (edited) Hello all, Well, to get myself over the hurdle of not going back to school when everyone else I knew was I went to York for a couple of days. Gentle pootling round the Minster and other sites and sitting eating icecream (it was a beautiful day) in a park. Since coming back I'm gradually building a new way to do things for me involving lots of rest, reading and crafting (I have a pair of socks and a blanket as my main projects at the moment although there are SO many unfinished projects in my house). I'm also steadily sorting out my house and tidying/cleaning so it starts to feel loved again. I'm enjoying a daily walk and starting to realise that it's not necessary to try to do multiple things at the same time! Edited Friday at 12:47 by Froglet 3 2 Quote

With the help of a very good friend, I’ve been decorating the living room - something that’s seriously needed it for a few years, but Mike wouldn’t have coped with the upheaval of it all. I’m going slowly as I don’t want to feel I’m eradicating him from this space, but it will look very different and calm when it’s finished. 2 2 Quote
