So... um...
The Kitchen:
Those that don't know yet, we're having the kitchen remodelled - or rather it's mostly 'have had' by now, since most of it is done. Monday was a bit of a disaster, having no stopcock and pulling out all the plumbing don't really go together. So Monday was the Flood-in-the-kitchen day. After that, things seem to go okay, though Dad changed the type of door that was going on the pantry, which has kind of upset Mum, because it doesn't 'match' the rest of the kitchen any more - not the same kind of shiney as the cabinets. I think it'll all be okay in the end though. They still have to come back on Monday to put in the rest of the plumbing (new sink, dish washer and washing machine), and to do the tiling, but for the most part, we have the kitchen. I'll take pictures when it's /truly/ finished.
Work:
Working in a Catholic School, everything stops for Christmas, right? And Christmas came /really/ early this year, because the local paper were running a school choir competition. So for weeks now it's been very little bit Christmas. You can have too much of a good thing. Also, the epidemic continues, people dropping left and right - and that's just the kids. Friday there were so few teachers that I ended up with 7 children that were not my own, so I was teaching not only Year 5 (4th Grade), but also Years 4 and 6 as well. (3rd and 5th - gotta love the differences in school ages!)
Me:
Been /tired/. Very tired. I still am, but I'm trying to take things easy, pace myself, and going to have to exercise some self discipline and actually try to get to bed a little more 'on time' in the coming weeks. Only two more until it's the vacation though. Still - must be good, (or at the very least, better). The 'winter' feeling is still there a little bit, though it's not so bad as it was.
LJ:
Okay, not that I'm tired of the butterflies, I like them and all, but I have been wanting to change my LJ for a long time now, I just can't find anything I really like. I wish I knew how to create my own style - I mean I know that
sasusc helped me out a little bit there, but I've been too chicken to try it, LOL. But by the end of this weekend, I want to have found something that I like... and change that around for a bit.
