The day to start is today

She looked .. so awake ... so alive ....

was it caffine or botox?

The strangest of days today weatherwise. It blew a freezing gale at playtime so we couldn't go on the field, the sunshine was out in force by lunchtime, so most children were under the sunshades. I nipped out to 'run' round the school to set out a treasure trail, thinking how gorgeous it was to be out on a day like this. All the curtains in the classroom were shut so the children didn't see my covert Treasure hunt setting up. I got back, explained the rules, opened the curtains BUCKETING down ???? So we waited for 20 minutes, with me thinking the clue cards would be sooo soggy they wouldn't be able to read them. Then sun out again and off the children went.

No one got lost, no one missed a clue, so all was well.

I had to go round at the end to make sure all the clues were collected, so off round the building and up to the top of the field. I did get distracted by this blip subject, and you may notice, a few drips, well two minutes later I was sheltering under a tree in a HAIL storm which lasted for about 5 minutes and I couldn't move it was like little needles on your skin as they bounced down. My class teacher didn't even make the 'you look slightly wet - was it raining? ' comment when I arrived back, so I must have looked bad :(
