Sunday weigh-in : Not Super Mum !

Last week was all about making Pierre feel better. This week was all about catching up at work, which was no mean feat as we're into the two busiest weeks of term. On top of all the normal teacher stuff, over the next two weeks, each class has an after school meeting where we look at the marks and behaviour of each pupil, compare it to last term's and - for the final year students - see if their choice of further studies is compatible with their results. I have seven classes so I have seven meetings.

 For the younger kids, each meeting only takes about an hour. For the older ones, the parents are invited along and we deal with each case individually so it takes about three hours - eeek ! - and I have three of those. On top of that, there are two more inset halfdays - the government has launched a huge reform for education so we have 38 hours of training to add in over the year, all unpaid of course - so I don't even get my Wednesday afternoon off this week. Add in all the marking and school report filling that has carried over from last week when I was off with Pierre and basically, I'm running on fumes.

I thought I was coming down with something yesterday because I went back to bed for an hour in the morning and had a 2-hour nap in the afternoon. This morning I got up and I can feel my lip about to explode with a coldsore, my eye feels like it has a stye and something is hurting inside my nose. All three are in a perfect straight line so it's presumably all linked and I had exactly this same thing at the end of last time, so it's obviously my body's way of telling me to slow down. Last time, my lip looked like I'd gone three rounds with Mike Tyson so that'll be nice next week !

Basically, with all of this, weightloss hasn't even been on my mind. This week is a maintain and I was actually expecting worse. Roll on the holidays - two weeks to go !
