I was not in school much at the end of the summer for a couple of reasons, one was that the weather was incredibly hot ( it got up to 39`C) too hot for dogs anyway.  The children managed to stay at school and keep learning though.  The other reason was that I have been having a few problems with my leg. I do not know if you recall but right at the beginning of the first Covid lockdown, I ruptured my cruciate ligament(one of the key ligaments that help stabilize the knee joint) this meant that I had to have an operation on my left leg.  Well, that one fixed really well, so when the same thing happened in my right leg I had to go for a second operation at the vet.  They were so good to me and it is now a week later and I am already feeling so much better! Like all patients, I have been demanding extra treats (especially sausages). The only problem is that I keep trying to take off the plaster that is covering my stitches.  

Anyway, the good news is that if I carry on getting better I will be able to get back into school and spend time with the children.  I have missed hearing the children read and learning lots of new information.
