Something's wrong. Sundays are getting easier and I am less stressed. Just like everyone said they would be. Just think how nice life will be come May when the Year 11's leave. I have nine periods of Year 11! That's like an extra whole day off a week!. Yes I will have to cover and invigilate, but that's not the same as TEACHING, waving my arms around, jumping around like an idiot trying to make Physics memorable.
DH and I are feeling more and more justified not supporting Operation Christmas Child through the school. We originally decided not to when we found out that religious literature was included inside the shoebox as we are very anti-prosletyzing. Then this weekend, my fellow teacher trainee forwarded us an email from the atheist science teacher at her school denouncing the scheme and making everyone aware that the scheme is led by Franklin Graham, Billy Graham's son, who has made anti-Muslim and anti-Hindu comments on record, and is also that person banging on about how Obama was born a Muslim, like this should somehow preclude him from being President of the USA. How to tell my school about this???
Accomplished a lot towards our planned move to Vancouver. I sent my letter to my mentor about my dream job. I scanned DS1's school report and wrote a rough draft for the school statements. Not sure what to do about DS2's schooling as he will only be ready for pre-kindergarten, AKA pre-school in Canada!!! There are only half day programmes available unless we put him in, eeggads, DAYCARE. I hate that word.
Anyway, must get off my duff. Luckily my hip has healed and I can sit for more than half an hour without stiffening up. Better go watch some TV before bed.
