Hello!
I don't seem to be doing much updating lately....
Outside my window: It's still light at 7pm! The days are getting longer, but today and yesterday were quite dull days with the threat of rain which never actually arrived.
My thoughts... I have to be observed teaching tomorrow. I hate having this done as it's so 'false'. I'm experience enough at my subject not to need to produce paperwork to support my lessons, and I've spent most of today having to do just that to satisfy some boxes that need to be ticked by my observer. :(

I am thankful for... Weekends!
What I learned this week... That being away from the office was rather enjoyable (if tiring!).
From the kitchen last week... I've been 'comfort' eating and everyone at work feels the need to buy high calorie cake/biscuits and chocolate to share which is not helping. I shall be having salad a LOT this week! :D
I am creating (crafts, sewing etc)... Does documentation for work count?
My adventures this week... (where are you going this week?).. This week we will know if our merger is going to go ahead. This had a HUGE impact on everything else including what we will have available for me to teach next year. We have all had letters of 'risk' (I had three as I have three areas I work in). It'll be an interesting week I think....
Becoming well read (What are you reading this week?).. I've been rereading The Dresden Files books on my Kindle which has been surprisingly enjoyable as I have a very bad memory for books I have read, so I'd forgotten most of the plot 'twists' *iz hopeless*
I manifest and co-create (what are your hopes and dreams this week) I hope that the merger will mean I keep my job!
Melody (what music are you listening to? even if it's just the sound of a bird).. Whining children in the film 'Zathura' which I have on in the background. I may have to change channels....
One of my favourite things... I have smoked salmon for dinner tonight, I think I shall make a sandwich with cream cheese.
Goals reached last week... I survived! LOL!
Things that made my week this week... Time away from the office.
Still life (share a picture you've taken OR a picture you found online that speaks to you)... I treated myself to a really gorgeous screen saver which is the most amazing virtual fish tank. The graphics are simply breath taking! Here's a screenshot:
