This is not a post about sparrows, but about the fact that I’ll be up and at ’em hours before they’ve even thought about dragging themselves up off the perch. I’m only employed three days a week at the moment, but I’ve been picking up quite a lot of relief teaching on my days off (ha!) and tomorrow I get to go to on an excursion down to the big smoke. It’ll be a great day but it comes at a cost unfortunately – a cost to my beauty sleep. I’ll be up at sparrows, around 5.30am, stumbling to the bathroom and searching for my face – think of me, won’t you?

It All Started With Carbon Monoxide 
awww, my sympathies, dearie! xoxo
Thanks! It was a long haul, but I survived. Just.
Good to know that there’s a market for teachers! Thanks for the comments on my related post. Although, I was up at the wildlife park today and we ran across a school group and I got to thinking how much I dislike teenagers. Could be a problem…
I started doing relief teaching again late last term. I soon had the first two weeks of Term 3 fully booked, and a permanent job ( three days a week) sorted til the end of the year by the third week of this term. You don’t have to wait long for something to turn up.
I’m a primary teacher though. Teenagers are a whole other breed!
what’s the big smoke?
Haha. The big smoke – the city! In my case, Melbourne.
oh, okay. i thought it was something much more exotic, like a park or something! i’ve not heard that term before. 🙂
