A Day of Appointments
My first day of maternity leave has entailed a lot of waiting around in waiting rooms with a scan, a clinic appointment and a separate midwife appointment. The scan was fine - still showing an issue with Baby Boy's kidney (which *should* be easily resolved after the birth) but otherwise A-OK; I found out I… Continue reading A Day of Appointments
An End and a Beginning
Today was my last day at work before starting my maternity leave. It was a teacher training day which was actually pretty useful with a particularly uplifting and interesting session with our behaviour consultant Victor Allen who is a complete legend. He has such a calming presence and he also reminds us that above… Continue reading An End and a Beginning

Not only is this town important because it is where the first shots of the American Revolutionary War were fired, it also boast a great deal of literary heritage with Louisa May Alcott, Henry David Thoreau, Nathaniel… Continue reading Book Review: Moods by Lousia May Alcott
Pressure
Since this month's NaBloPoMo theme is 'pressure', I thought I ought to write about it at least once this month and yet every day that I have come to write something I have felt reluctant. Maybe this is because 'pressure' is such a negative word and my word for 2014, as you know, is Positivity.… Continue reading Pressure
