Little Pearls Of Wisdom: Sunday Stress

I don't know how any one else's Sunday goes but for me, as a teacher, my Sunday is far from the day of rest. I woke up this morning at 7:30 and refused to get up. I went back to sleep for as long as I could - 9AM because I knew the second I got up that would be the time that I start work. And I dread starting work on my day off. Anyway, I got up, had some cookies for breakfast (real healthy, I know!) and then got cracking with figuring out what I needed to do for work. I started planning the outside area for the week and making the resources.

Now, that was fine because I found it exciting but then I realised that I had loads ore planning and resourcing to do and it was only 1PM. Anyway, I waded my way through all what I needed to do and then before I knew it, it was 5PM and I hadn't really had anything proper to eat (I had eaten a doughnut and a packet of crisps- too healthy today!). I took a rest and had some toast. I realised how sad my day had been and so took a small rest. It's funny how people always moan about how teachers get loads of time off but I want you to name me another job that spends their weekend working without actually being at work. I know some people work weekends but not of their own accord. After that, I emailed my plans and had to change some (still getting the hang of it all).

Then, to take a break, I decided to go to the station to top up for oyster card ready for tomorrow. I am in the ultimate slum clothes and refused to get changed. The closest jumper that I had was a Christmas jumper and so I went to the train station in my Christmas jumper at the beginning of October- what a fashion diva! Anyway, I almost made it by not being seen but as soon as I got to the machine, a train had arrived and a billion people came out of the station... I wasn't embarrassed but I just thought, just my luck, eh?
