I’m doomed, alas!
It cannot be.
6 1/2 weeks felt like 3.
And as I sit
At 12.15
I ponder all these days have seen,
The plans I had
That went astray
As I relaxed, relearned to play.
I did not paint the garden fence,
Nor tidied wardrobes as I should,
I really wasn’t very good
At doing all I said I might
Or sticking to a plan at all
But what a blast! I had a ball.
And so, although
This night right here
Ends liberty of carefree cheer,
Off to school,
To class I stride
Knowing well, deep down inside,
That, even though I love to teach,
«««««Tempus fugit, really fast»»»»»
More holidays will soon be cast.
I love my job!

‘Dad’s Army’! Sunday nights. I’d forgotten. Must be the ghost of Sunday’s past come to revisit. Or that miserable, auld Scots bugger from the programme. ‘Wurrr dooooomed!’

I suppose laying on a deckchair in your bikini out the front of the class would be out of the question eh? 🙂

Nearly spat my coffee out there! No, Mark, not an option. Besides, Hurricane Bertha’s tail end is making big enough an impact here. 🙂

lol. Now don’t be like that, I’m sure the impact of your derriere would not sink ships, drown the unsuspecting or create a tidal wave up the Clyde River 🙂 But if your anything like me, after a season of no sun, my skin is 10 shades whiter than a Polar Bear and may frighten the population 🙂 Ok, back to just dreaming till the next break I suppose!

You guessed right. No tsunamis based on my butt. I hope! But dreaming is for sure. I think I’ll be running reblogs for the next month based on my workload. 😉

And the only reason I’m able to answer this comment just now is I wakened at 4, couldn’t get back over and gave in to the lark. Precious quiet time at this moment. Work will settle in a few weeks I’m sure once all the planning is done for this new class in a new school. And I’m loving it so I can’t complain. 🙂
