'It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas' and so the song goes. I sang my first Christmas Carol this morning and received my first Christmas cards. That's the joy of working within a primary school. Everything needs so much planning and preparation, so that by the time the Christmas holidays arrive we'll all be Christmassed out. It's fun really..I think!
As you have probably gathered, since my return to England, I managed to get a job teaching in my local primary school. It suits me well as its a part time post and supply cover, which still gives me some time and flexibility so that I can be around for my family. The fact that I worked at the same school for 10 years prior to travelling means that it really is 'just like coming home'.

For my Advent picture today, I chose this little fella. My own mini gingerbread man on a very yummy Xmas cupcake. It was full of fruit, spice and even a little bit of rum. Cheers.
See you tomorrow,

ReplyDeleteHe was! Particularly the rum butter cream topping!
DeleteDelicious, but he looks to cute to eat!
ReplyDeleteI kept the little man til last to eat. I felt very cruel eating him.

DeleteI'm glad to know that you got a job that fits so well with life for you right now. xx
ReplyDeleteIt's fine for now. It will all change after Christmas, but we'll see how it goes.
DeleteGlad to see you back here again. The little gingerbread man is very cute:)
ReplyDeleteThanks. It's nice to be back.
DeleteWelcome back.Glad you managed to get a job in your old school. I hope that things at home are OK. Sarah x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sarah. Things are becoming a little more settled. It's lovely to be in touch with all of blogland again. x
DeleteIt's lovely to see you back :)
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you were to get that job :)
It was more of good luck than management! It was a case of being in the right place at the right time. Technically I'm just supply cover for a colleague who is off sick, but it's working out ok.
