    ahhhh hubby used to be like that........took a change of school and it's so different! He was back today as well, but not full student roll until Monday. I'm back Monday (I get an extra bit of time either side of term holidays) - and actually looking forward to it - but.....I do love my job!

    Ah! Work!

    A fading memory.

    Yes, but the feeling was just as bad after just two weeks off.


    If I'm asked "occupation" on any form I always now put "Pleasantly Unemployed"
    It goes of course next to "Jedi," for "Religion?"

    :hehe:Sorry MzTrouble, but I must admit to feeling post holiday euphoria-I just off loaded all three of mine back to school today:yho::yho:, it was wonderful-peace and quiet, no screeching "get away from me", no ominous banging, no toast getting burnt and smoke alarms going off. No sulking, and loud dramatic teenage sighings-purely for my benefit. Just me and a cup of Rosie Lee enjoying the downpour-even the heavy rains here didn't dampen my spirits. And the best part of all, they are all so whacked out from their first day back they are snoozing away as I type.

    The downside of being retired is "we don't get any bank holidays" do we?
