Cat-astrophes

A stormy Monday...

Storms are marvelous...I love them...however kids don't seem to like them so much.

So on days like today, a room full of six and seven year-olds becomes a high-pitched nightmare.

"eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!"
"miiiiiiiiiisssss!!!! I'm scaaaaaaaaaaaared!!!"

What's more, a lot of these students are refugees and are quite nervous individuals as it is without including loud explosive noises into the equation...if you get my drift....

To top it all off, one of these nervous individuals was receiving a prize at a big assembly in the midst of this storm, and whilst standing on stage infront of the whole school during what should've been a happy moment, her poor nervous bladder gave up. The embarassment turned out to be too much also, so she proceeded to bite her lip....

...until her tooth went straight through her lip. The shock made her freeze.

So aside from controlling a class of 20-something little hyperactive storm-crazed monkeys I had to literally drag a terrified, wet, bleeding 6 year old from the stage.

I won't talk about the row of kindy kids that freaked out at the sight of blood...

So yeah, it's just been another typical Monday.

PS - the title is in tribute to Saturday night's U2 concert...just dandy. (I've been wanting to use that word all day)

So I've been having computer issues...and I've had better things to do than fix them. So it is only now that I have had the time to get around to rectifying all those little bugs.

However in order to do so I had to wipe the whole machine and start from scratch. Even though I laborously sorted through files, deleted, saved, deleted, burnt....it amazes me how many 'things' I've still lost.

Tax files being one of them....oops...........

I'm sure I've backed it all up somewhere...right?
