Pretty Violas.

We had a dry morning and some showers in the afternoon. I had another split day working with the Year 2 class in the morning and back down to Reception in the afternoon. The Year 2 teacher has been signed off until half-term which is 4 more weeks after this one but I'm not really sure that I can keep on working full-time for as long as that. I just don't have time to recover and I'm getting spasms in my back in the evenings. I think I'll have to warn my Headteacher that I may not be able to continue in the Year 2 class for much longer. Much as I want to help the school out and this class in particular needs continuity I do have to think about my health. That said I had a good day even with PE in the morning and then sitting on the floor with the little children doing actions to songs such as Row, row, your boat. After school I had a session sticking photos in books before heading across town to do a bit of shopping. I went to BJ's first to buy some violas to brighten up the hanging baskets, then to Lidl's, Tesco's and the petrol station. I planted up the violas when I got home but haven't had time to do anything else.

This morning's viewing sounds quite optimistic though with the usual English reserve you can never really tell.
