Reorganisation

It’s taken much longer than it should have, but I’ve had a little blog layout reorganisation. I’ve also included my first affiliate link, to the lactivist store Please feel free to spend money there 🙂

Today has not been as pleasurable as it should have been. I’ve partly achieved lots of things that I set out to achieve, and failed badly on completing just about anything. I did reclaim our fish from the post office, and I shopped, at Lembas and Aldi. I got washing in and out of the machine, then left it in the kitchen, washed up, then cooked and ate so the kitchen is disastrous again. The children have had nearly no input bar shouting, and I am losing track of what I’m supposed to be doing with my life. It’s not supposed to be this way. < end pathetic wail >

So it’s 10 pm, I ended up sending two crying children to bed at 8pm, and I’ve spent the time since then farting about with my blog. I don’t really learn do I?

Tomorrow the three of us are off to Wales to do family things. Thankfully we’re getting a lift so I don’t have to drive (Tim isn’t coming or we wouldn’t all fit and one of us would *have* to drive). It appears I haven’t been very good at doing family things recently. I’m told we haven’t been to my parents (all of three miles away) since last Christmas day. They had also made an (unsafe) assumption that we were going there this Christmas day. 🙁 So we now need to cram Christmas into Christmas eve morning. That’ll be fun then.

Right. Kitchen.
