Hm, would like to do swimming regularly, but don’t quite see how I’d manage with two small ppl – and dp doesn’t swim if he can help it. Also thought that dance would allow dd an opportunity to meet other likeminded little girls (ok, I was thinking she’d find other pink fanatics!). Very aware that dropping her nursery means that she won’t be regularly seeing her friends – hope that we’ll keep in touch, but given her best female nursery friend is the daughter of my very soon to be ex-boss, not sure that will work that well. I feel awkward even if he doesn’t!
Had lots of good intentions tonight, and spent most of the evening feeding Small instead (it’s a nickname for ds, who is anything but 😉 ) I really want to try making some simple montessori activities and see if I can get a little bit of work going there, but once again, haven’t got to it.
On the plus side, dd did her larger size hama car today (thanks Kirsty!) although she did insist on ironing it, so we are now once again short on large hama beads (might be time for another trip to beadmerrily) and looks like a couple of work schemes might come to fruition which could help with my general stress levels. I can’t believe how adrift I feel just because I’m giving up work. I can remember trying so hard to get a job when I left uni, so it is ironic that I’ve just walked out of the best paid one that I’ve ever had. I really need to get my head together though, because I did hate working for the bank, while loving the actual work I did there. Surely I can find something to do that doesn’t involve an office?
We also had an expensive trip to the library – the dvd was one day over, and cost £1.50 in fines. Then dd wanted to hire another (got the cheapest section, which still cost £1.20 for Barbie in the nutcracker) and then we found a constellation poster for £1.50, so that had to come home too. Watching dd trying to ballet dance to the nutcracker was definitely worth it though.
