I have survived

| 2 Comments

Back from the residential, exhausted, elated and a bit incoherrent! Wiith apologies to Gloria Gaynor here's the thoughts that are floating round my mind ......

I have survived
I have survived
and as long as I can get some sleep
I think I'll stay alive

I've got a minibus to unload
lots of kit to put away
but I survived
I have survived

It took all the strength I had
to get the young people to take part
kept trying hard to do group work
achieve some goals that were quite S.M.A.R.T
(I'd spent so many nights
wondering if it would work
So many 'sighs' ..... )

BUT NOW I HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH

Because we're back
from the residential place
we've all just returned
with grins on every face
they've brought great memories back
and achievments from the trip
The teens grew strong
they learnt how to get along

I have survived

Excellent, well done pleased it went well.

Glad to hear that it went well though I am going to be beginning litigation to pay for the therapy I'll need as a result of picturing you as Gloria Gaynor...
