Currently March

Linking in for the first time this year over at:

for her Currently post where you just answer a few simple questions on one of her lovely posters :)

As it's the USA - polling is a BIG thing at the moment!!

Listening - The poor old school bus seems to be having more problems than normal making it up the hill today - maybe because it's rather icy out there or maybe there are more pupils on it now that school revision is gearing up for those important exams in May and June??

Loving - That my community based project to get more people exercising outdoors in their local parks via offering free Nordic Walking lessons is gathering pace.  I learnt that the local doctors will all be made aware of my idea and can then offer it to patients of theirs they feel might benefit from this plus met a lovely lady who can provide creche facilities very flexibly to help mums with young children to also take part - so it's all coming together :)

Thinking - I just need to create a logo for my project now that could be featured on leaflets and posters and possibly tabards - hmm get those creative juices flowing!!

Wanting - I really want a nice morning where I can get into the garden and finish off my mammoth weeding task of my vegetable plot so I will be actually ready to grow things this year.  I've done some already but now that my extra "Green" bin for garden waste has been delivered I really want to fill that up before collections start next week.

Needing - another DIY project is to get some little windows installed in the cellar in front of the grills now that it has dried out after the major structural work took place last year.  I could do with finding some in a skip!!

Polling sites - at my last school it too was used as a polling station/site each year but we had a teacher training day on the days that it was - mainly because as a small school we would not be able to function with people coming in and out of our main entrance and using our one and only hall. Now that I have moved to another county where there is a large abundance of village halls these seem to be used a lot more than local schools so the schools do not have that problem.  I would have thought in the states that sports halls, churches and other social sites would have made much better venues for polling - certainly given the levels of security schools face with guns being part of the American culture!

Now I'm off to see what other teachers are up to around the world :)
