Met a friend for a walk

 

That was good.

I spent an hour spilling my guts about how I've been feeling lately and I feel better for it.
It was warm and we were both sweaty and menopausal but it was exercise and fresh air.

My spouse was still a little frosty this morning but mellowed a little when we went to the doctors for her.
Outcome wasn't as hoped and now she's in bed moping.

The mood in this household of late is shit.

Surely I should feel great!?

  We've just got back from 4 days break in Torquay at our favourite B&B -  The25 . It's a lovely place to stay with luxury accommodation including a tv in the bathroom! It's Easter break from work (I'm a teacher) and according to everyone else, and me, I should be relaxed and happy. Instead I'm anxious about going back to school next week, always tired, depressed and thinking things no one wants to think. So much so that I can't even bring myself to write the words. I've been taking Prozac for years and have no idea if it actually helps or not. I feel shit. I don't think I like my job anymore - 17 years and counting... I get angry, impatient, upset and can't think straight. I'm more worried about what others think of me than how well I am so make things worse with denial. I've got 11 lessons left with year 11 before their exams and they're fucked. Mostly lazy and / or unsuited to the course. I'm looking for what jobs are out there...

Monday, Monday....

EDIT: Wrote this after Easter and didn't publish - so date looks wrong. First day of the new term Briefing Tutor Year 11 Year 7 Break / Wee Year 10 Year 9 Lunch duty Meeting Department CPD 4 lessons including 4 different year groups - the only group missing is year 8. (Not a bad thing!?) We shouldn't moan about student groups but any secondary teacher will tell you about year 8. They're sort of in between stages. Year 7 are new and shiny for a while and the smallest fish in the pond. Year 9 are getting ready for options, hormones are hopefully starting to settle and they know what they're going to do next year and how they feel about your subject. Year 8 are neither the smallest or the biggest in the key stage and are sort of trying to find their way. Often this attempt to find their way is by pushing us teachers out of it!
