Glad to report that my Dad who has been back in hospital after a suspected stroke, is well on the mend. Turns out to have been a drug mis-match which floored him and once that was sorted out, he has made a good recovery. He is due out of the local hospital in Hampshire on Tuesday. That is rather good timing as daughter #1 and I are off down to see him this weekend. I haven't seen him since I got back from India and am looking forward to seeing him. he'll be less stressed if we go to the hospital rather than at their house.
I'm looking forward to spending time with Katy and catching up on all her news. Here in school, I've been given some extra admin work and am out of class for that which has been a mixed time. I love being with the pupils, but enjoy some of the admin stuff too.
I don't know if I said but I got a lovely welcome back to school, a banner my class had made to welcome me back, some great socially appropriate hugs and smiles from my class and team too.
Now I've been back for almost 4 weeks and in some ways it feels as if I have never been away. I've had some nice compliments on the newer shape I managed to bring home from India which is very flattering though. Only 4 weeks left till we break for summer hols - being away for 6 months certainly makes time fly I can tell you. I remember when 6 months took at least half a year to go by and this last period has just flown by! Or am I getting older?
