strike! and make...

Hello all and yes i am still around! I have a bit of time tomorrow as i don't have to prepare for tomorrows lessons as i am on STRIKE! It's like back to the 80's isn't it. I feel very strongly about saving my pension and the pensions of all the people i work with and who do the like work. The thought of having to work until i am 68 is , well i would say impossible. As some people may know i am a teacher in a special school. Our students have severe or profound learning difficulties, and many have added complications of challenging behaviour, autism, health and physical difficulties. I am head of autism and hardly sit down all day as i work with some very very challenging behaviour...

 Will i be able to do this job when i am in my late 60's? 

So tomorrow i will be having the day of. I am not going on the March but will be resting up at home and hanging a banner from my window.
Ok i also have to admit that i am planning a lovely day. Tonight i went to the supermarket and bought myself a mollie makes.
 With lots of lovely ideas inside

 I have bought a lovely stack of beautiful felt from Annie the felt fairy who kindly sent it recorded delivery so i have it for tomorrow, Thank you so much Annie. A few people from work are coming over and we are planning to spend the day making bits for Christmas. All work and no play?
 of course not! I will be making the ,most of a precious day of (losing a days pay), and have got in the important things..

 Wah hey! I will let you know what we make (if they are not too wonky). xx
