It's a bit late, but I have too much energy to sleep (and yet not enough energy to move to my bed). I just hung up the phone with my sister. Yesterday was my brother-in-law's 30th birthday and I really haven't had a conversation with my sister in ages (I think December was the last time we spoke), so a phone call was necessary, right? I do this every time I hang up with my sister, the cheesy grin and the "I love my pookie" attitude (that's what I call her). With all of the warm-fuzzies she leaves, I should call her more often.
Tomorrow is the last day of the second term. Yippee!! I have officially made it through a second term at a British school. This one was a bit easier than the first (not including the Ofsted preparation/inspection). That leaves hope for the third term...
Next Tuesday I leave for my big Contiki Tour of Europe - 8 countries in 12 days!! Should be quite an adventure - lots of time on a coach (we travel on average 250 miles a day!)!! We will be sleeping in the following cities: Amsterdam, St. Goar (Germany), Munich, Hofgarten (Austria), Venice, two nights in Rome, Florence, Lucerne (Switzerland), then two nights in Paris!! I am really starting to get excited about this trip - I have dreamed of seeing Italy since I was a kid!
Until Tuesday I will be shopping, packing, muddling through my 2004 Income Taxes, relaxing and spending some time with the Brit (as Little A so nicely dubbed him). Whatever I do, school will be the last thing on my mind (at least for the next two weeks) - this is why I love my job!! [This is not the only reason I love my job, but after the Ofsted week we all need a bit of a break - kids and teachers!]
Anyway, I should really get to bed. Despite tomorrow being a half-day, I will be worthless if I don't get at least some sleep.
