    Thank you Marion for being so generous with your spoons - when I bet you really need every single one for yourselves.

    Hi speedy

    Sorry I am late responding :oops: good job i am not a paramedic eh?

    Have fun with the children in need tonight. I just had to laugh to myself as today I was coming home on my suped up scoot and saw a little girl with her mum, They let me through the ginnel, I smiled and said thank you to them both but noticed the little girl had yellow and red little dots on her face. I wondered why. Reading your post I now know. Durr children in need. I thought she was off school sick. :lol::lol: how daft am I.

    Hope you are feeling much better and have a lovely weekend

    Hi again Speedy

    Just popping in to leave a few more spoons. Hope you have a good rest this weekend and are able to recharge the batteries for next week. Hope they have sorted your chair at school and that you are feeling much better now after your fall. Hang in there. (((( )))

    Evening speedy, I have returned from my wanderings with Mr DD, so just popping in to wish you well for next week. I hope you have managed to get some rest over the week-end, that your cutlery drawer has been replenished with spoons of all shapes and sizes and that you don't lose them all in one go tomorrow: eke them, girl, eke them as much as you can! Take care, thinking of you. DD

    Hi speedy

    Hope you enjoyed the evening with your friend.
    I Love it when my friends come round, We have a tuesday club evey month. One of my friends is a teacher and the other works at a school in admin and they really cheer me up with some of the funny stories they tell about the children. We also try to put the world to right.

    I don't know how they keep a straight face some times, I guess this happens to you.

    Hope you soon get equipment to make life easier
    Hope you are feeling quite ok too.
    Take care

    Hi Chris, Elizabeth, DD, Julie, Cris, Ironic, Marion, Poppy,

    Thank you for your continued support.

    Knees now fine and back ok too ... until I go back into work again. I've had several days off - due to the way my phased return has been worked out. Working Wed, Th, Fri this week (which is harder than Tu, W, Th as more class time, no paperwork time and no chance to recover before weekend... and having to be supermum.)

    Just seriously lacking in any joie de vivre, energy, oomph etc Would happily just lie in bed all day ... hoping snap out of this soon. It doesn't suit me.

    Hope you are all doing as well as you can, sorry haven't read posts for a few days.

    Go and lie in bed then: if that is what your body is telling you then go and do it. This is your chance to rest and recharge, S is out for a few more hours, so do it! Take a good book with you, or curl up in front of the telly if bed is a step too far - just rest. You need it, by the sounds of things. Going back to work is a HUGE step, and seriously depletes one's resources. Thinking of you. DD

    I hope you are resting as much as is humanly possible?

    Is anyone at work supervising you during this phased return? Just wondering.

    Love

    Thanks DD and Frog.

    :roll: Of course not. No support/ interest/follow up ... Not I think due to neglect but lack of managerial skills ...

    Hi Speedy

    Sorry to read that you are still not back to your normal self.

    Glad that your back and knees are better though..

    It's still 'early days' for your return to work you know ... its going to take about another 3 weeks or so before you're back into the routine (well, it was for me anyway) - so take it one day at a time.. You've done brilliantly over the last 6 months.

    Hope it goes OK tomorrow..
