A Typical February Day (a bit like 24 without the guns)

The following takes place on a typical monday in February

The following takes place on a typical monday in February

00:00

Midnight, the end of another fine day
And  its time to get into bed I’d say
But I wont yet sleep
I have promises to keep
And a bit more planning to do before I may

01:00

The time has now gone onto one
And I am still awake having some fun
Playing online chess
Releiving any stress
Which come to think of it I have none

02:00

Its an hour later now two
I still have a few things to do
Maybe do a plan
If I still can
But first I’ll need a trip to  the loo

03:00

The clock on the wall now says three
Its time to sleep even for someone like me
So I will switch off the light
Sleep the rest of the night
Will the alarm wake me? I’ll have to see

04:00

I am asleep by the time it is four
Maybe deeply, maybe I do snore
It would though seem
I do at least dream
Maybe once, but probably more

05:00

I am still sleeping at 5 am
The time that possibly when
Some people get up
Have their tea in a cup
But I am oblivious to them

06:00

It is six and I do sometimes wake
I am too tired for my breakfast to make
So I find that instead
I stay in my bed
And have an extra sleep for my minds sake

07:00

It is morning and the time is now seven
I am asleep and it feels like heaven
It is all calm
An hour till my alarm
If i oversleep I may not wake till eleven

08:00

The alarm wakes me now that its eight
I have to be quick so that I am not late
So its a rish again
Before i get my train
After showered, dressed and breakfast is ate

09:00

The time has now moved onto nine
I got to work and everything’s fine
The lesson thats first
Is never the worst
Although the tired students do tend to whine

10:00

The lesson goes well until ten
This is the time generally when
We break for fifteen
Students take seventeen
And I have to tell them off once again

11:00

It is eleven and nearly the end
I have driven students round the bend
Teaching them calculus
As they make too much fuss
I would call them stupid but I dont want to offend

12:00

So its a typical day at about noon
It will be my lunchtime quite soon
After tutorial I can be seen
Queuing in the canteen
And dreaming of the quieter days of June

13:00

So the afternoon arrives and its one
Paperwork to do, so much fun
For everything a form
Sometimes two is the norm
Its the part of the job I like to shun

14:00

I am often teaching again by the time it is two
Sewing what the students can do
This time its a log
That is causing a fog
In the minds of maybe quite a few

15:00

The time has now moved onto three
A lesson in geometry
looking at gradients
Should make more sense
But we shall have to wait and see

16:00

By the time it has become four
Its beginning to seem more and more
That gradients
Do not make sense
And the studentsfind me quite a bore

17:00

Work is nearly at an end
Its five and I’m driven round the bend
Who called this damn meeting
Deserves a beating
Why not put the info in an email and send

18:00

It is six and at last time for the train
That will take me home once again
Although its always late
By four minutes or eight
Any longer and I go slightly insane

19:00

Its now seven and nothing’s on tv
So there a pther things to do then for me
I can maybe mark
While it gets dark
Or alternatively cook myself tea

20:00

Now that the time is now eight
And the evening is getting a bit late
Its time now I think
To go to the pub for a drink
As a beer would really taste great

21:00

The time has now moved onto nine
And distractions have worked out fine
I will not have beer
But do not fear
Instead a dvd and a bottle of wine

22:00

That time has come around once again
The annoying feeling that happens at ten
I was feeling fine
But tomorrow at nine
I need to prepare something I’ve forgotten

23:00

Its eleven and nearly the day’s end
In an email tomorrows plan I will send
Now I relax
Have a few little snacks
And wish that it was the weekend

00:00

Midnight, the end of another fine day
And  its time to get into bed I’d say
But I wont yet sleep
I have promises to keep
And a bit more planning to do before I may

Howdy! Someone in my Facebook group shared this site with us so
I came to give it a look. I’m definitely loving the information. I’m bookmarking and will be tweeting this to
my followers! Excellent blog and superb design and style.

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a
sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear
and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
