"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Ahhhhh - so he's an Aussie Boy now.... (hey, he'll always be a bit of a BRIT! :wink: )

Oh - potty training again............oh.......now see there's a big positive for me - NO POTTY TRAINING FOR YEARS!!!!!!! That's more than coco! Positive for you is....when the g-kidlet is potty trained - what a sense of achievement you'll both have (OK - reeeaaaly trying hard for you on the positive there )

Thanks for positive vibes. I am reallllly good at handing munchkin back very quickly at end of day. One of the cats sits up really high each day looking down in disgust and this intrusion of serenity, one won't come out of my bedroom on those days that I babysit. Mama and I can forget about canasta!

How long before you have to return to work Izzieliz?

Hey girl -

Cat's have an amazing "look" of disapproval don't they! Mine turns his nose up to everyone, except me and one other. Hasn't got the time of day for anyone who doesn't feed him

Work - yeah - we have a tiny school and at the moment they have a Finance Officer from County coming in to do the bill paying / budget etc. School goes back next week - but as the fiscal year has just started - the budget can only really be done by one person - oh, well the Head does have a say I spose (nah)!!!! but in reality - I sort it out and she signs off on the paperwork about 6 months later . So unless I go back full-time, which I physically won't be able to do - added to the fact I live in the country and can't drive yet - who knows! Occupational Health won't allow me to go back full time to start off with coz I've been laying around for 2 months - so... I guess, when the financial stuff is sorted I can go back part-time and also work from home.

There has to be a lot of communication between me and the Head - and once I start back part-time then she can come by the house and we can work from here. Once I am more mobile, no worries. Miss the kids like heck, and we have so many plans on how to take the school forward - it's exciting times.

Also have the house move - so that's gonna be a little tiring - tho who knows again when that's gonna happen. All in good time I guess.

The school is also very "in - accessible" - i.e. not "toots" friendly - so need to ensure the "toots" are healed before any "little darlings" tread on them. So gonna have to sort my sleep pattern out too OH MY! That'll be fun - making myself go to bed at the appropriate time. Mind you, haven't slept in years - 4 actually - so, survive on little sleep - but really need a good 8 hours. Can't remember when that last happened!

Hey ho - soon life will return to "normality" - well, as much as Izzie normality allows. Work is the best - love my job, love my colleagues - so looking forward to being back with them. They're a good bunch of folk.

Well sounds interesting Izziliz - yeah I bet you miss the kids and comrades. Working from home can be good tho. Sounds like you are going to have a great environment to live/work in.

Just noticed the swallows returning to build and repair nests again in preparation for winter. OMG do the seasons go so fast.

Howdy Deedee and Izzie...
just got home from Gbaby's game. It was hilarious as usual. But COLD! It's April for heaven's sake. Shouldn't have to be wearing my coat and gloves at a game! But we are home and getting toasty.

I am going to finish getting the boys tucked in and then take a hot bath myself...sounds lovely!

Izzie - I love flats...so comfy - and sexy is an attitude baby :wink:

Hugs to all...
