One comment so far - more welcome!I can only conclude that the person who made this has never met a three-legged cat: from graphjam.com Even our cat-phobic neighbour fell under the spell of the furry menace once he only had three legs. Unfortunate? Certainly. But most definitely ad-awww-able. Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 2nd, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: More Cats. 8 comments - more welcome!
Today started like so many other days: I woke up and found my furry companion of the last 18 years, George (aka Black Cat) sitting next to me. I got up and stumbled to the bathroom. George galumphed along with me, as was his wont. It being breakfast time, George nommed his morning [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 1st, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC. Leave a commentAn evening of impersonation for me today: time to do my best grandmother impression. Mr TLC’s beautiful granddaughter (who really needs a blog name, Baby A just doesn’t fit her anymore) is two today. Where does the time go? I hadn’t seen her for a while and the change was dramatic: from toddler [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: May 9th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: People Watching | The Job. 4 comments - more welcome!We were sitting in a very quiet pub early yesterday evening, waiting for some friends to meet us for a pre-curry drink, when a guy who was sitting at the other side of the room finally stopped having a loud, booming conversation into his mobile phone and started having a loud, booming conversation with [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: April 13th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: France | My Life | Paris. 6 comments - more welcome!Tunnel related paranoia is much worse than being in an actual tunnel. You know that feeling that you get when the rollercoaster is about to set off? That was me on the Eurostar this morning. However the queasy and uneasy feeling did not last long: we were about halfway through the tunnel before [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: March 11th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: The Job. 6 comments - more welcome!I didn’t think it existed, but it does, I’ve found it. Found what? Nothing less than the secret spark, the magic dust from Hollywood movies, the miraculous way to grab the attention of all my pupils. I know I’ve found it, because today it happened: I walked down the corridor and turned into a [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: March 8th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: The Job. 11 comments - more welcome!I have been doing a lot of thinking lately. Well, I have to do something with my time – and it certainly hasn’t been filled with blogging. I’ve been thinking about how much I love working at Current School. I’ve been thinking about how friendly and supportive my colleagues are. I’ve been thinking about [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: February 12th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: The Job. One comment so far - more welcome!It’s Friday afternoon, it’s a quarter to three… It’s quiz time! At least, it is for my form group. Today we indulged in a spot of geography (which is slightly ridiculous, given that the quizmaster – *ahem* that’ll be me – is notoriously geographically challenged), followed by a few IT acronyms. All went well [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: February 6th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC | My Life | The Job. 7 comments - more welcome!Thursday (Ofsted – 4 days) My day starts, as usual on Thursdays, with a group of wildly enthusiastic primary students. I arrive at my own school at break to be greeted by The News. *They* have called. Well, we were expecting it – bring it on. Am I coming into school at the weekend? [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: January 30th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life | The Job. 10 comments - more welcome!I’m sorry I can’t get to the blog right now, but please leave your message after the beep… Things are a bit busy just now. We got the call on Thursday, Ofsted arrive on Monday. I have a lot of paper to generate. Probably no time for blogging, not even for sneaky back posts [...] |
