Right hand, meet the left hand

Up in great excitement today at sparrows to head off to the local secondary school for my first day of supply. However the deputy head thought he didn't need any cover, unlike the local coordinator who had e-mailed me on Friday. Thirty minutes of hanging around and this was confirmed - no supply needed today but tomorrow and Wednesday would be good. It was like being granted an extra day's holiday.
It also meant I was up to see the sunrise, the sun rising just as a transatlantic jet passed overhead. It turned out to be the best bit of the day.
The day then was spent with a stroll at Balranald become coming home for some gardening and a lot of lounging about.
Our guests managed to wrestle one of their errant bags back from the airline yesterday and the second was promised for today. Fingers crossed.
