up and down ...and round and round...





The picture was taken last Sunday, in Ashdown Forest (home of Winnie the Pooh). The autumn sunshine has been glorious; I've been savouring it before British Summer Time officially ends next week and the days go short and dark.

It's been a busy week, what with work and Weybridge and the odd social event, and I'm tired. Tired, and moody. I feel frustrated that this weekend is already over, and angry with myself for not making the most of it. We did plenty of things that would normally make me happy, but I didn't enjoy anything much. I felt irritable and on edge instead of my normal self. Bobby is moody too, which doesn't help. I always feel that only one of us should be allowed to feel out of sorts at any given time.

But, the week after this one is our half-term break, and Bobby'll be on leave too, so, with any luck, that'll re-energise us. We're meeting up with friends in Cornwall; should be good (if cold; we're supposed to be camping!). But the day after we get back to college I'm being observed again - by two people at the same time; one observer from Greenwich Uni and one from college - so I am going to have to do quite a bit of work over the break.

Oh well. Bobby's made soup for supper and it smells lovely so I'm going downstairs to eat, and to watch Stephen Fry putter through the South with the family. And everything is ready for the forthcoming week - the house is clean, our clothes are ironed, and my lesson preparation is done - so I can relax with a clear conscience.

One more week!
