I hope everyone is having a good week so far. I have managed a few bits of reading today but not as much as I would like. I really just want some big reading sessions.

Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good week so far. I had a slightly longer lunch break in my car today which meant more reading but it was rather hampered by the fact my car has developed a party trick of randomly setting it’s alarm off for no reason.

Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good week so far. I’ve had an interesting day as my school hadn’t bothered to tell me they had changed my start time so I turned up to teach already rather late. Thankfully, I had two students absent so I could catch up with my day.

Hello!
I hope everyone has had a nice day today. I didn’t have school today so I spent a lovely morning reading and then went for a long walk. I had teaching in the evening and an Etsy order to do but at least I got some reading done.
