Sheba

Another busy and very long day. I feel I owe you all an explanation as to why I haven't had time this week to do much commenting. Last Friday my old boss phoned me to ask if I would possibly like to leave my current job and come back as he has had to sack my replacement. No way, said I, but I did agree to help him out for four days this week.

So, I get up at 0530, and head to the depot about 0645 for my morning school run. When I finish at 0930, instead of heading home or popping out to do some Christmas shopping, as was the plan, I now take off my tie and swap my fleece for a pharmacy one and jump into a van to deliver medicine to the housebound, the elderly and the downright lazy for the next four hours.

Another quick change follows and a cup of coffee, a sit down for half an hour and then I go back to the depot and pick up the bus as it's time to return to the Education Station and take the little cherubs home. I get home around 1730 and eat, blip, then head to bed about 2100 in preparation for another 0530 alarm call. Roll on the end of the week!
