Last Day of School for Term


Really tired but happy. This was a ten week term without any public holidays. I only had one day off sick, I think. The wheelchair has been great. I use it so much. I used it for moderation - found that other teachers could relate to me much better as a disabled person.

Of course, the first place that I went to with my wheelchair was the National Art Gallery. This is a photo of me in the wheelchair looking up at the orb that hangs in front of the art gallery. It is difficult to get it in and out of the boot for me, but am getting better at it, and of course I find that members of the public are willing to lend a hand when I need it.

Lots of people comment on the wheelchair as well, - I don't remember seeing one like it before and apparently most people haven't. Am hoping to go out to Floriade if I can this weekend or maybe next week during the week. Apart from that I hope to have a restful holiday and then there is the mad rush to the end of the year.

I am not as well as I hoped. I am not as sick as I could be. Still hoping.
