No news on how my sister's cat is but hoping she is able to come home today. Will likely hear from my sister tonight as she had to go to work today and probably wouldn't be able to pick her cat up until late this afternoon.
A couple of the younger kids affected by the tragic death on the weekend were at school today. Probably the best place for them among their friends and with supports in place if/when they need it. Understandably there is a lot of grief around the school - especialy amongst the older kids who understand what happened and are really feeling for their classmate. The staff were okay today - a lot were very tired - including myself. As expected I did not sleep much last night and felt that during the day. I got through and now have to plan for tomorrow. I will leave Friday's planning until tomorrow night and Thursday night - can only do one thing at a time right now - hard to concentrate and pull everything together today ...luckily a couple of the kids I usually work with were not there and I had a little time to myself - didn't get much done but at least got it under way.
Going to rest for now and do the work I need to do later - don't start until 12 tomorrow so have the morning to rest and/or finish the planning. Pdoc appointment after work as well tomorrow. I will miss the farewell afternoon tea for some of our staff that are retiring but the pdoc appointment is more important to me right now - very much need it for my own well being.
Sending light and love to all and the hope that there has been a little good in each of your days
