It's been a long time since I used this journal as an actual journal, and I kind of wanted you to know what has been going on in my life the last few weeks.

Just a quick line to say I haven't dropped off the edge of the world - it has been the end of term this week. It has been manic - teachers are exhausted, kids are irritable. Fights break out (yeah, so this actually happened). Paperwork must be completed.

I am still trying to write, but it's limited at the moment because I can't really keep my eyes ( Read more... )
