My knees hurt now.

I am so unfit. I’ve just done the introduction to my dirty dancing fitness thing twice through (well, tried to anyway) and I’m very confused and have achy knees and hips, but at least I feel like I’ve tried. Does 10 minutes of exercise after a complete sedentary day count for anything? Probably not, but hey, it’s a start.

Very tired children tonight – Small didn’t even want supper (;) ) before going up to bed. He wanted the rest of his book read to him though. Think Big is on another Tale of Emily Windsnapper (or some such) and they were both asleep when I went up to change into sloppy clothes. Not long before we eat pizza and then I follow them – it feels like it should be about Thursday, something to do with getting calls from work both days at the weekend.

Found craft on twitter the other night, and am now drooling over a variety of dinky craft patterns. Must finish various projects already on needles or hooks though! Think I might have my go in any scrabulous game that is waiting for me then get a craft project out and do that while watching telly and eating tea. (Well, probably not quite all at the same time, but rather than coming back on the computer tonight!)
