sunnyday

Hi fm

He sounds very much like a little boy that I had the pleasure of working with a few years back - the only way that we could 'manage' him and help him was to assign one-to-one...I had to do so without any extra funding so that was far from ideal.

Good luck - it was all very challenging - but I still see him from time to time and I am pleased to be able say that he is doing well - he needed one-to-one at primary school too - he has just left for secondary school (mainstream) and I don't know what the arrangements are there for him...

Good morning - 'tis Friday!

I'm still here - wasn't sure after my use of the C word yesterday! Mind you, it is November, sure we can say it now...

I so enjoyed my 'grand day out' - it started off being an outing for our little Knit and Natter group but then it grew a bit to include friends and family which enabled us to book a coach - thank goodness we did as the trains weren't running early yesterday. Lots of festive shopping completed - yay! Super company and lovely to be out!!!

So quiet outside today - no wind, no rain and a lovely blue sky - need to make the most of it and spend some time outdoors...

Hope everyone is okay

Wishing you all the best of weekends x

You mentioned Christmas! Yay!!!!

I did - will I get banned - please don't tell Sue 🤣

I have been up to London today!

Every fibre of my being was saying "you shouldn't be doing this"

But I felt the fear and did it anyway!

What a brilliant day we had at Olympia 'Spirit of Christmas'

Awful journey home (coach) as Operation Brock was in place on the M20 and the M4 was closed because of an accident...journey up was 2.5 hours and home 4.5

Wow, wow and wow!

They are lovely young Froglet

Happy Birthday! 

(Is it the 'big one' 🙀, or is that next year?)

xx

It is the 'big one' she is 103 today! 🤣

Have a lovely day young Froglet xxx

You deserve a morning off  - enjoy!

I also need to catch up with Bake Off and fully intend to do so later...

Has anyone read 'Lessons in Chemistry'? - I have read some favourable reviews...I am currently sending a book each week (via Amazon) to my poor sister in hospital and I am fast running out of ideas

I think I do - like children’s shoes but not attend to anything!

Yep! that's it exactly!

 I bread the first Richard Osman one and liked it but don’t know that I’d rave about it. I’ve been finding reading hard recently so am hoping for something fairly easy to get me going again.

Interesting - I have completely lost my reading mojo - not sure why...

Velcro strips to 'undo' if you see what I mean - hmm that's not a good explanation really 

A weighted blanket?

Velcro strips?

Bubble wrap?

Do you have a school/class newsletter - could you put out a request for items?

One of my 'fiddlers' loved an old fashioned spinning top ...

We need fm on the case - bet she would have loads of ideas

Will keep thinking!

Thank you both x

These birthdays come round far too fast🤣

I had a lovely day - time well spent with friends and family❤️

Good morning - tis Friday

Happy half-term to those who get a break now!

Hope everyone survived Storm Babet in one piece

Have a lovely weekend x

Oooh you are talking my language - love, love, love a list or three!

This made me smile - talking to my youngest granddaughter about school dinner, she told me that the pudding choices were fruit or apple crumble and custard - "I had the apple crumble and custard without the apple crumble" 🤦‍♀️🤣

I've had a 'sort of' stressful week (well three days).  We have 'one of those' parents this year and quite honestly I just can't be bothered with it anymore. It doesnt really bother me a such- it just p***** me off.  It puts such a downer on the day for the staff when she always walks in with the constant moan/digs. I'm really not sure why she sends her child to us five days a week if we have so many issues with us!

.

I feel your pain louby and as you say why send her child if that's the way she feels 

Good morning - 'tis Friday!

How is everyone - fast approaching half-term now!

Update on my sister and thanks for asking/caring - she had an operation on Wednesday - long, long time in theatre they did all procedures in one go - she was not in a good place yesterday - tired, stressed and probably still full of anaesthetic - this morning she is far more positive and upbeat...proud of her for that

Onwards and upwards!

Hope that the weekend is kind to all x

Have loved reading all your news my Friday friends!

My poor sister, thanks for asking, it's all a bit of a disaster for her (that could be the understatement of the century) - in a nutshell her operated leg became so infected that she was moved to another hospital (Brighton) where an operation was carried out to open the wound and clean - but the situation was far worse than envisioned - tomorrow she faces another op to remove the knee replacement and then maybe Wednesday another op to insert a rod to 'fuse' her leg - this will leave her with a completely straight leg - horror of horrors the only alternative is amputation...

It is all so unbelievably stressful for her. I have no idea if she will cope with this 'fused leg', she is 77 and full of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Bet you wish you had never asked!

In other and better news - weather is incredible here today - hot, hot, hot - have been busy in my garden find this such a good distraction 

Good morning - 'tis Friday

Hope everyone is okay?

Have a lovely weekend x

Missing our Panders 💔 we would have been busy discussing Strictly now...

Wow!

We made £533.00 - how lovely - people are so generous 

Good morning - 'tis Friday!

Early start for me today as I am helping at our village Macmillan Coffee Morning - hope that we are busy and make lots of money 🤞

Hope everyone is okay?

Have a lovely weekend x
