Small is just full of cold - I hauled myself upstairs and steamed myself gently in the shower for a bit and that seemed to help. Once done with that, rolled up my sleeves, metaphorically speaking, and cracked on.
Big did lunch again, while I was showering, and after it we successfully made cinnamon scented [...]
Nope, not me this time. Big wore the walk-o-meter for about an hour and a half and managed to rack up more than I did each of the first three days that I wore it! Aargh…so obviously what I need to get fitter is shorter legs It all turned out to [...]
Big was out for the night Friday night, then I picked her up for swimming Saturday morning. Slight glitch was that it was her teacher’s birthday so she’d taken a day off, and there was a standin. The good news is that this was the chap who taught Big in the summer, lovely [...]
The batteries are flat in the camera again. Or too flat for me to pull the piccies off, which means I can’t show you all what arrived in the post today. You’ll just have to wait
Anyway, pretty good day today. Made it to the group at Chesterfield, which was pretty [...]
A great day today. I had lots of plans to do arty/ crafty/ sciency things with Big today, and instead, I finally remembered to check the phone for the message I’d noticed last night, and it turned out to be from the mother of her first nursery friend. Apparently he’s been wanting to [...]

Mainly today we’ve pottered. Finally got around to doing some more work on Big’s scales - I’m taking piccies as we go along. We played the piano a bit - by a stroke of luck I opened [...]
Small and I had a lie-in, much needed after another bad night. I’m sure it’s his teeth, but he will not take anything for it, and indeed acts as if I’m trying to poison him throughout.
Despite this we had a pretty good day all round. Big and Small played together quite well, and [...]
until I got around to ticking the category list!
How did we fit so much in?
Up very early is one clue, as it was Big’s swimming lesson at 9.40 this morning. She and I fell out before and after, although she managed extremely well during (and I did make sure I told her so, even [...]
It’s quarter past seven and Small is in bed asleep - unheard of! Big is upstairs with Tim having her bedtime story, and I am savouring the silence…
Let’s see, we didn’t do everything I’d hoped for, but we did a fair bit. Big did some more of her workbook, filled in a form [...]
