I have so much I want to blog about but so little time … I don’t know about you guys but it seems that my “to do” list sometimes creeps up on me and when I’m not looking, it grows exponentially – when this happens I feel like I’m spinning lots of plates. I know I need to stop being so hard on myself but I think that one of the worst things about teaching is that THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE. I still haven’t learned to accept this yet! I saw something the other day that struck a chord – it was something along the lines of: Sometimes the most important emails/things are the ones that don’t get an instant response or get done immediately. It’s not that they aren’t important .. in fact it is the opposite. They require a chunk of time to give them the time they deserve and finding that time is difficult. This is my life at the minute. Don’t get me wrong … I’m not complaining. Just reflecting on what life was like when all I did was teach! Life before JustMaths.

In other news -> tomorrow is my 23rd wedding anniversary (I know!!) and even though we don’t make a big thing about it we’ve not been away from each other on this date since our first one when he was on a lads golfing trip (don’t worry I got a girls ski trip & a girlie week in Ibiza a couple of months later to make up for it so don’t feel sorry for me!).  So Rob (and its a long shot as I know you stopped reading my tripe a long time ago!) if you’re reading this … love you and I hope you’ll still be awake when I get in late tomorrow night!
