A bad case of neglect

for my laptop, and it’s gone into a fairly fatal sulk because of it!

Didn’t turn it on ’til 5.30 tonight – another day of making and crafting with the children. Oh, and pushing Tim’s car down the drive. Hm.

Big and I did lots more jewellry making and we had a crochet session as well. Shades of teaching her to read as I did end up stalking out of the room for a while (I am not a patient person, whatever ppl may think). Small declined the offer of more knitting, although he did spend quite some time writing in his diary. It’s beginning to look like writing as well. Spooky. Then again, in monte I think writing does come before reading, so maybe this is all to plan.

And that was our weekend. Friends, making things, far less computer time, and happy children.

Life is good.
