everyone!
Well I have had the day from hell let me tell you!
First thing this morning, OFSTED inspectors turned up. One lady was quite nice but the other one was a complete an utter stuck up ***** (sorry I don't usually talk about people this way but she really rubbed me up the wrong way!). Anyway, it was like being in court being bombarded with questions - I was so stressed out. At the end of the day, they both gave feedback on the inspection.
Basically, on the care side there are 3 levels (unsatisfactory,satisfactory and good). We got good so I was really pleased with that. On the education side there are 4 levels (poor quality, satisfactory quality, good quality and excellent quality). The bitchy inspector gave us good quality just because of one very minor issue that can easily be put into place. She said that she hardly ever gives the top level as a setting would have no action points to be awarded with that.
We have one action point - how picky is that? Also, I think that settings should always be looking to continuously improve for the better so really all should have some action points - don't you think?
So, went home feeling very stressed

and to top my day off, went to the toilet when I got home and have had a show for

. I couldn't believe it! I had a good cry

and now I feel a bit better - hormones, don't you just love em! Oh well, I guess it's on to cycle 3!
Cocoa - any sign of

for you yet?
Angie - good to have you back with us! It is fun looking at houses but not so much fun moving!
Debra - so sorry to hear that you are having a hard time at the moment too.
Will check in again tomorrow.
love,
Tamarin.xxx
