And I am already panicking about the school gate, so decided to come here to get it off my chest before I explode.
I still feel like an alien amidst all those people.
I wish I did not have to go there everyday.
One. More.Week.
Thanks for listening.

You said it. One more week. Deep breaths. Hope it wasn’t too awful xx
No, it wasn’t that bad- I always feel I can face the whole world after a panic attack, nothing seems to be as badas the anticipation- that is what kills me! I feel so silly!

It’s a bit weird isn’t it? It’s like whether you are part of an in crowd or not again. Four and a half more days for us!
I felt like that for an age when my son started school (he’s in year 1 now).
I didn’t know a single mum, he didn’t know any of the children and I was working so hardly ever got to chat at the school gate. Not that I probably would as I felt so shy and such an outsider.
Of course, 2 years in and it’s not as bad as all that. I still feel like there are the ‘cliques’ and then me and they ‘allow’ me access sometimes, but then actually that suits me better because I don’t want to feel like I’m back at school myself with all that playground rivalry.
2 days to go for us!
Argh. Never mind water torture and sacks on the head. They should make suspected terrorists spend all day at a school gate. I’d give them four days before they sold each other down the river.
