Hmmm.....
Good plan yesterday. In a drive to get life into perspective I decided to devote yesterday to the following: drink more water, drink less caffeine, keep the computer switched off, go swimming, clear the ironing pile, find my gym membership card, and pick up my sick note from the doctor.
Well, I drank four glasses of water, so that much have helped! And I picked up the sick note. Shame it's wrong, isn't it? Nothing is simple - it is dated the week before I actually finally managed to go off work!
Still, I have to go in this evening for parents' evening so I can discuss it with the Head then. Yes. signed off with stress and I still end up doing parents' evenings! I did one on Monday night and it was noticeable, even though I knew there'd be no real difficulty with any of the parents, and even though the stress isn't really work-related, I found myself feeling quite uptight as I drove to the school and sometimes totally lost track of what I was saying to parents. Not that they seemed to notice. This may mean one of two things. Either I am such a professional that I remain coherant even when I am waffling OR the parents, like the children, don't actually listen to what I say.
Plan for today: Drink more water, drink less caffeine, keep the computer turned off, go for a swim, find my pass for the gym, diminish this great huge imposing ironing pile which is blocking out the light from the lounge window....... Oh, and maybe a game or two of Everlasting Sentences. Well, I need to relax ;)
