overdue update!

I can't believe it's mid-October... I never update this blog any more!!

Been pretty tired since starting my new job/course. It's going well though and I'm really enjoying the experience. I've not done much teaching yet, but have my first teaching block coming up in about 3 weeks.. Getting on well with my colleagues and the children seem to be responding pretty well to me in general... we'll see about their responses to me when I'm actually teaching them..

Other than that, my parents moved house and are now delightedly at home in Weymouth. We visited last weekend and it was lovely to be beside the seaside! The house is lovely but Mum's looking forward to putting her stamp on it, and Dad's looking forward to making the garden his own. Moving the Scottish one properly into his flat this weekend, Ikea tomorrow evening and we need to get hold of some paint and stuff to try to get going on the facelift the walls and ceilings need. Off to a wedding on Saturday afternoon, so it'll be nice to catch up with some old friends and the family who will all be there!!

Thank goodness it's half term next week, a chance to catch up on some sleep, writing up my notes, and having a lovely friend from London coming to visit!!! Yay!!!
