February has gone by in the blink of an eye

I can't believe it's nearly March.  We have had an eventful February. We spent every moment sending off application forms, visiting agencies or even attending an employment fair. Now after weeks of uncertainty GO has a job, he works as a relief chef, pubs, foutball clubs and even nurseries, he has a four week placement. While he has been job hunting he has taken on the role of house husband.  While I've been at work bring in the little bucks, he's been cleaning, washing, doing the laundry and cooking.  I do love him and wouldn't change him for the world, even if he is a little too laid back at times ;-)).

I have started settling into school and getting into a routine has been a god send. I leave the house at 6.30 am and get back at between five and six pm.  It keeps me out of mischief and I love being back in year one. I've been doing lots of things to get ready for school like going to the Manchester Chinese New Year to find resources.  I was asked recently whether I would consider applying for the permanent position, although I like the school the commute is such a pain.  The villages I drive through were all badly affected by the Boxing Day floods and are still trying to recover, traffic through them goes at a snails pace.  I can't make a decision until we know where GO needs to be based.

GO likes the look of Chesire as it has National Trust properties in the vicinity. I like the countryside around this part of the world it is so dramatic, but I do like the idea of being close to Manchester and all it has to offer.


Half term was a whirlwind, we tried to keep busy, I had hoped to go into school to organise things.  As GO wasn't at work we spent the time together, job hunting, house hunting (I need to move out) and just generally getting to know the area.
