Some days..........

"I should have stayed in bed." That was the thought that coursed through my head as I removed a young student who had just thrown a wobbly.

Throwing up was next on the list of major classroom events. Kitty Litter for the uninitiated is always a good standby for these occasions.

As my working week drew to a close I was rewarded for my patience by a lovely little gift from a young person who is moving. Of course in keeping with the day, I promptly lost it.

After at least half an hour of the frantic searching of my desk, rubbish bins, and numerous boxes of paraphernalia and worst of all wondering how I was going to tell the little boy that I had lost his present, I went home.

Going down Hannan Street, I managed to get trapped half way around a corner on a red light. Having no idea quite how that happened, I then wondered about dementia.

The silver lining? When I eventually reached home I found the lost gift tucked into my camera case and it is the weekend.
