Pilates, interrupted
After a bad night (sleep, interrupted) with Tigerboy, I wasn’t in the mood for morning. Which is a shame, as I’ve discovered that my day runs smoother if I get up early, and get outside soon. So, after orange juice then coffee I took myself outside with a relaxing playlist to do some pilates. I…
Day in pictures.
Morning cuppa, real tea, no more plastic laced tea bags. A short commute to my garden office Leap reader reviewer hard at work Some reading material in the post A treat to rescue a frayed day Finishing off with a bedtime story for #300PBs
Chips!
On the beach. How terribly British. Except it was a glorious evening, and we weren’t under an umbrella. It was the last SCubs of the year (combined Scout and Cubs group). It was going to be Small’s last attendance, but on heading there will be lots of changes in September he’s considering trying the new…
We're just talking, talking about home education
This weekend I did something new. I was interviewed on radio about home education. It was Croydon Radio, and the interviewer, Swazi, is someone I’ve met several times at blogging events. She was very keen to set up a show around home education, and I’m always happy to talk about it, so once we managed…
Pieces of the past
Today I worked through another box of stuff that has been for no apparent reason, stood in the middle of the living room. I found lots of old stuff in it. There were these things. That’s a calendar of pics taken at the second cybermummy. I’m in the dinosaur bloggers pic 😉 the diary below…

Butterfly wings and Kindle Fire HDX
Every night at tea time we go around the table, asking how everyone’s day has been. Most evenings Smallest says it’s a secret and we move on to Small. Tonight she told us that Prince Charming made her butterfly wings that she wore through London until they blew away on the train station and that…
Beautiful day today
If we gloss over the part where Small and I fell out over his current chat room addiction. (Pokemon related in case you’re wondering. ) Big and I processed the tent together, which is now packed away pending research on the best way to deal with the rip in the door from the other night.…
Wildlife in the kitchen
I wish I knew where my camera is. I had it the other day. But I’ve been doing a lot of shifting things around, and there’s still a lot of bags about and right now it could be just about anywhere. So this is a phone snap. I don’t know what it is. I tried…
Mobs at the beach and litter louts.
The first mob we saw was made up of seagulls. I’m not sure what had got them so excited, but they were loud about it. I like the sound, these days it reminds me of home. The second little group weren’t nearly as friendly. We were walking along the prom towards a group maybe in…
