Good to hear from you. Have a great holiday and good luck for op.
Well done on job too. I found out on Thurs I have 25 hours from Sept (20hrs and 5 hrs job) for at least one term and this is likely to continue as the child has very specific needs. Well done on weight loss too. You are doing better than me.

Thanks hun - am hanging as instructed
Thanks Deana, Fab news about your job - at least we both have something for time being - have just signed up to do SK124 -Can I pick your brains - what format were the icma's as struggling to work out how a computer would mark them - ? multiple choice???
Thanks fitz for your support
Thanks Charly - hols nothing grand only a week walking in the brecon beacons and a week walking in the lake district. Have you managed to pressure your OH into booking your next holiday yet? Really must get round to reading some diaries soon
Thanks hun - it did
Everythings fine thanks Claire
Sorry not popped in this week - last week of school year is always manic to say the least! Urgent ultrasound was just that 2 working days after my appt - did panic when they rang with appt as I thought OMG they must be expecting it to be bad if it is deemed THAT urgent - but according to the radiographer nothing abnormal to see other than a few early fibroids so all well there thank heavens!!!
Twinkles left primary school yesterday - emotional leavers assembly passed without turning into a blubbering wreck - bonus! Little lad I have worked with for past 4 years also left yesterday - mental note made; it is not good to work with same child 1:1 for 4 years as it leaves you feeling like your heart has been ripped out when they move on! As professional and as detached as we try to remain it simply can not be done unless your made of stone and quite clearly I'm not ha ha. Anyway now officially off for the summer (lets hope we have one this year!).
Weigh in tomorrow morning - hoping to have lost something but havent been officially pointing and have had a meal out this week so wont be disappointed if I havent. Have run four times this week (3miles each time) so wracked up quite a few AP's so you never know I may have lost something???
Jax the format is muliply choice for SK124. You get 2 atempts (I think) per question, but if you need to use the 2nd atempt and get it correct you get a lower mark. It will tell you if you got it partly or fully correct, although won't tell you which bit is right or wrong. The icma's are not bad at all though. The ieca has 2 parts. part 1 as above and part 2 with longer answers which is marked by hand after submitting.
Thanks Fuzzy. Re treadmill - have now ventured into the real world and what I would say is that running outside either on grass or road is very much harder than on a treadmill. The treadmill is a lot softer underfoot and easier on the knees, ankles etc. You almost get a bounce factor if that makes sense??? My average HR on treadmill backs this up - poodling along at 5 mph is 122 on treadmill but in the real world at same speed is 152ish - as you can see I am anything but fit ha ha. The treadmill whips the ground from under you so that you dont have to propell yourself forward. So its a big shock when you hit the road/grass for the first timeHiya jax..
Im really pleased to hear that your ultrasound results were ok....
Good luck for yer WI hun and well done on the running...can i ask having never ever ran on a treadmill is it quite soft underfoot or like running on a metal board
have a super w/end x
Thanks so much Deana - am much clearer now about what's involved!!! Have disconnected my E124 which I passed from the Cert in Early Years and linked it in with SK124 as part of a Cert in Higher Education Open so at least I didnt do the E124 for nothing! Are you planning any more OU study?
Weigh in this morning was brill - lost 3lbs this week, again no idea how - thats 9lbs gone in last 3 weeks without even trying - gosh if only it was always this easy
It is a good course. If you need any help let me know, but know you will be fine. I am still trying to finish my life degree in Life science, which hopefully will be done in Dec 2011 all going well. Also going to have an atempt of E111October this year once current course is finished, although nervous about this. I wanted to do NVQ 3 in supporting teaching and learning through college, as schools round her are looking more and more at qualifications, but have to be in 2 years continuious employment first, so E11 will give me a certicficate in supporting learning (thinks thats the title) and can go on to do a foundation degree if time etc allows next year sometime.
Well done on the weight loss you are doing really well.

Sweet wrapper fetishist.
Well done you on keeping up with the positives despite all the stresses!
Excellent losses and sounds like the running is doing absolute wonders for you. I definitely know what you mean about the running outside - so much easier on the treadmill, but more satisfying outside hopefully!
Hope you enjoy your hol when you go - and you can relax good and proper, sounds like you need it.
Take good care of yourself hun x x x

Thanks hun, am getting there - weekend spent surrounding myself with friends and family - much needed
Thanks M - need something positive to aim for on the horizon thats for sure!!!
Sounds fab Deana, would consider E111 myself - but we only do infants ( YR to Y2) so worry that I wont be able to meet the criteria for it - my school arent exactly flexible as my need to withdraw from E123 proved. Good luck and keep me posted!!!
Weekend spent with family and friends so all good there - keeping busy, busy, busy!
Thanks hun, am hoping I can relax on my holibobs; I sure need to as next hospital appt on Monday after we come back :fingerscrossed:
I will try and get round to visiting diaries and yes I know I keep saying that but at the moment am trying desperately hard to fill every minute of every day just to take my mind off things. Dont think I have ever wanted it to be term time when I am working full time so much in all my working life!!! Stick with me I will be back and in normal circulation soon, god willing, I promise! Happy Monday everyone xxx
