Just 7 and a half teaching days left until the Christmas holidays! We're all just hanging on for dear life!! Despite the data from Public Health Scotland suggesting some types of schools are more likely to have outbreaks, my school is bucking the trend and so far we've had zero positive cases of Covid. Staff, kids and parents have been following all the safety rules and it seems to be working. It does hang over us all the time but it's worth it if we can keep this up.
In the midst of teaching in a pandemic and still dealing with my uncle's 'stuff,' I did manage to get my wee downstairs shower room renovated.

It took longer than planned as they found a few issues including the outside wall having no insulation! They fixed that but it means the rest of the extended part of the house probably doesn't have any either 😲 So that's on my list for next year. I've been told there are grants available for insulation so I'll investigate it. As much as I love my new shower room I won't be using it. It's mainly for visitors and guests (my guest room is downstairs) and for my son who is living in the extended part of the house for now. But it does make me want to update my stuck in the 1980s bathroom upstairs!! 😄
Looks brilliant
ReplyDeleteThe shower room looks lovely, I'm sure your son and visitors will really appreciate having such a luxurious (and now warmer) room to use.
ReplyDeleteHang on in there it's almost time for Christmas break, and well done to your school for following the safety rules so carefully that you are all safe, I bet not many can say that!!
I'm really proud my school has done everything possible to keep everyone safe!
Deletelooks great x
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous. I'd be sneaking down to use that :)
ReplyDeleteLol! Thanks :-)
DeleteWow stunning shower room!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with hanging on! I always used to come down with something in the holidays!
Thanks! Fingers crossed there's nothing to come down with this time!!
DeleteHi Ali, your bathroom looks very nice. We just started a much stricter lockdown today as our numbers are going up all the time. This lockdown will be a hard one as it will last for a minimum of 4 weeks and no one, other than the people that live in your house are allowed to visit. So it will just be DH and I over Christmas. I hope it makes a difference at the end.
ReplyDeleteWe've just come out of a strict lockdown. Only essential shops open and no visiting other households. It seems to have worked but we're all worried people will take risks because it's Christmas
DeleteThat's what I need to do for my ensuite bathroom but have run out of funds at the moment. Maybe in the New Year.....? Congrats on getting through this term with no infections!
ReplyDeleteWell done your school for having no outbreaks, my grand daughters school has 4 positive this week :(
ReplyDeleteYour bathroom looks brilliant.
Hang on in there! x
Thank you!! Really really looking forward to a break :-)
