OK, now I'm scared.
It’s been a busy morning, with Small playing happily on cbeebies with Mr Tumble, having previously done some fabric land game he found. He came charging in with instructions that he’d printed out about paper weaving, so I got him the bits he needed and he did a tiny bit of that, before declaring he…
And finally, Big's day.
Has been rather up and down. She seems somewhat emotional and confrontational atm, and I’ve been somewhat preoccupied with some work I needed to finish. It’s not a good combination 🙁 Nevertheless, we’ve had some good times today. I particularly enjoyed setting her up on the laptop to work on some more programming with kpl,…
Birthday!
Bit of an anti-climax actually. Tim and I off out to work, and Sarah in charge of the children. Despite my best efforts I didn’t get back particularly early, but Big tells me she had a good day. We did family presents after her bath, and she was thrilled with a rainbow IKEA candle as…
Birthday outing
Celebration part the third! This is getting to be one long celebration, and Big is loving every little bit of it. Having her oldest friend stay overnight, as he has done rather a lot of times in the past, ought to be straightforward and it did used to be. However, we didn’t used to have…
Birthday part the second
given that presents on Thursday night count as part one 😉 Long day though first, as there was lots to be done. Small had a hearing appt first thing this morning, so he and I were out bright and early (well, 9.30, which is bright and early for a Saturday I think 😉 ) and…
phew
doesn’t it take a long time to list stuff on Ebay? Still, 17 items listed, for 5p a piece. And like I said, many more to come…found a whole box full of early reader/ piccie book type ones that I hadn’t realised was kicked about. Will try to put a list together in case anyone…
"I don't understand…
why the library was shut an extra day.” It wasn’t me agonising over it, but Big. I was irritated, to say the least, it took us nearly two hours to get library books read, rest of them found, library cards located, right shoes with right socks (sigh), and so on and so forth, and then…
Taking a leaf
out of Merry’s book, been targetting my efforts this morning! Gotta love those red nose readers – Big is sitting on the floor right now reading one, and Small is on the couch looking at another. They are excellent! OK, quick round up of the day so far. Despite feeling like death only slightly warmed…
It's a strange day
Have had the news on most of the day, something I don’t think I’ve really done before. Not sure that it was a particularly sensible thing to do, it’s left me feeling rather drawn out and detached from our reality here. And that during a hectic day too. Got up early this morning and belted…
I think that went fairly well 🙂
Think I’m going to be popping back for a second, more technical interview in a week or so’s time. So I should still be alright for Kessingland, especially as I stressed today that I am away that week. Got to get your priorities straight, after all! 😉 And of course I’ve another interview on Monday…
