again. Still. Bleargh.
Anyway, after lunch, Small listened to Harry Potter for approx 5 hours (!) and is now well on his way through the Goblet of Fire
, which is cheering Big up as they may get to watch the film soon 🙂
I spent some time in Small’s bedroom, trying to sort and discard and produced two carrier bags of miscellaneous rubbish as well as putting lego bag into the lego box, cars into the car carrier, books onto the bookshelf and so on. It was somewhat disheartening, especially as it wasn’t anywhere near tidy when I gave up.
The mystery of why Big’s clothes don’t fit in her drawers was solved when she excavated them all and it was discovered approx two thirds of the put away things didn’t fit. Sigh. So they were sorted into piles as to who they can be passed on to and I’m beginning to find it difficult to move around our room for all the stuff that needs to be given away.
After that, Big and I walked into town to post the purses she’s sold, and then on to Tesco to pick up milk and bits. I’m always intrigued when milk and bits turns into over £5 of shopping, but given that I did the shopping in Lidl this weekend and it came back at under £30, we’re still winning I think. Quite nice to spend a bit of time with her on her own while not in stroppy shouty mood too 😉
Back home and fed them pizza – they listened to yet more Goblet while it was cooking and Big played some more with ideal blox. I think Small has just pretty much listened, he doesn’t seem to multi task in quite that same way. Still impressed at the hours and hours of listening, although we could have done without him shouting at anyone who interrupted even slightly! 😆
Kids are up in bed now, and I’m pestering my MP again, this time about Clause 152 of the Coroners and Justice Bill. It gives them the ability to share data without any further discussion, and I don’t think that’s something we want really 🙁 You can read all about it in the Guardian if you feel so inclined.
Now must do some more maths.
