Am awake, have been for hours. Got up to the loo, let madam out and took some painkillers - my shoulder is sore. But I think mostly I'm just sad having learned that one of my friends died suddenly on Saturday.
She was one of those friend who you don't see for ages but pick up where you left off type. I first met her 30 odd years ago at the school I joined as a Maternity Cover.
I clicked with her straight away. She was warm, kind, stood no nonsense and she was bloody funny. Hilarious even. Really good fun. She championed the children and went out of her way to help them. Me and her set up the first true Nurture group at the school and we stayed close after I moved schools to where I am now. Over the years, we caught up at training events and on line but I hadn't seen her in probably well over 12 months.
Still, it was a shock and she will be missed.
Life is short people, live for today, have something good for your tea. It might be your last.
