Still recovering from detached retina surgery - made some tiny vases

Thanks!

Honestly the best thing ever! Had one last year and planning another!

Impressive! The REAL Hugh Grant wants to follow little old me! I imagine he’s inspired by the teaching/ pitting/ broken eye stuff that I post here occasionally!
Yeah right!

You’ve spotted how you’re feeling , that’s the first part. Can you get more outside time over the next couple of days? X

I’ve been rubbing arnica on my cheek and forehead- they were bruised and swollen but a lot better now. Good call for internal arnica too though!

Mmmmmm detached retina surgery gives you a charming (and pretty blinking painful) eyeball bruise.
Sorry if this gives you ‘the ick’.

This is great. Two of our RE units are on Humanism.

It’s made both the children laugh but loud tonight!

@sdupp.bsky.social beautiful work! Perfect ‘poop references’ ! Thank you!

Thanks! Every day is different! Today eyeball and bone around it hurt like hell- think selling is going down more and pain creeping out!

The last week has been a little miserable, painful & blurry. Retinal detachment surgery isn’t great. Lovely colleagues have dropped a ‘cheer up’ parcel round inc a perfect piece of art from @SDupp, Black Eye gin,a Cornish hamper,local history document &eye patches @mrjuliandicks

I def need a decent RA for me to go back with. Occ Health meeting already booked in!

Exactly! Stupidly, I thought, op I could get really ahead with work while I’m off- obvs I can’t- not least because the blurry double vision, under water bleurgh is making me feel sick!

Thanks! I’m well stocked up on audio books, podcasts, etc. going to try and ‘enjoy’ it!

Loved it ( through my right eye). Just what I needed while being confined to bed!

Thanks-pain is not lovely at the moment and anaesthetic has really wiped me out. Hoping to find actual clothing and a room other than bedroom today! I’m
No good at ‘taking it easy’!

3- 4 weeks off work. 3 months to normalish vision. Can’t be bumped or do anything jolty or strainy for 6 months! Perfect for work in a primary!

#scleralbuckle #retinaldetachment surgery +3days. Not feeling marvellous tbh and vision is not really there. Fun fun fun but glad for good surgeons

Oh no! I don’t have one the same at the moment but can knock you up one!

Detached retina is boring now. Still a fortnight till surgery and permanent headache over left eye is annoying!

Why rural schools' catchment challenges are worse than you realise Everyone knows rural schools have catchment issues – but do we really appreciate just how stark they are? Michael Tidd illuminates the issue

So much need, so little money! We really
Need shelving and
Units and
Then to refresh out books.

Thanks- had wondered if they might be worth a punt

Where can I apply for funding to regenerate our little school library?

3 mini and 3 normal bottles and a mixing bowl ready for the kiln.
