Wow. That's funny and quite nice. Good luck tomorrow.

I have blogged. Having a difficult morning. Let me know if you are not a buddy and want to be.

Lengthy comment made. We had a really horrible row here yesterday and i spent the day shaking and dropping things and losing things, and then the cat was spectacularly sick all night. Currently waiting to see if any school will be incoming, no idea if she was in any classes yesterday

Teen looks set to make it in for third day of exams. She is barely speaking, comes back and goes straight to sleep for five hours, eats and then retires. She was in lesson 2 Monday and full day yesterday. It does reinforce that daily interactions are more stressful than exams. One more day to go after this

Can't wait for boy2 to finish y11. He's not happy, getting weekly detention for poor behaviour, and missing the bus every morning requiring a thankfully short school run that I resent having to do.

I'm counting the positives, he is going to school, he seems to have good friends and goes climbing twice a week, but school definitely doesn't suit him well, and I'm slightly worried that he's chosen to continue to 6th form.

Actually now I've written it down, I feel a bit better. Only a couple more (short) weeks.
