What a day!
Started with swimming, and Big finally conquered her fear, and swam without floats! Thinking about it seriously, that’s not really very *finally* iyswim, she had 5 lessons this summer, and has had 10 theoretically of this course (except she missed one and didn’t swim on another) so that’s not so very long from being firmly…
Swimming – and one of *those* conversations
Back in my own bed last night, but Small must be feeling a lot better, as he pretty much stayed in his cot, only headbutting me once. So a reasonable night’s sleep, although I didn’t think of it that way when the alarm went off at 8am. I’ve never been a morning person – seems…
Doesn't the world look different
from the other side of 7 hours sleep? Horrendous evening trying to get Small to bed last night, resulted in me in tears downstairs after 45 minutes of trying to settle him, while Tim did finally succeed. Really couldn’t face another night of the wriggling, writhing, hair pulling and scratching, so went and slept on…
What an excellent day
Employing the head in sand approach to the financial situation again here, but hey, it’s working for me 😉 Bad night with Small – he went down at about 7.45 last night, but was restless all evening, Tim settled him down then came down for a coffee and I was working on the computer. We…
So how was swimming Sarah?
‘cos it went well here. We were late, again, but it wasn’t our fault – is it just me that thinks signs saying “Swimming pool carpark” imply that the car park is meant for users of the swimming pool? Apparently there was a cross country taking place somewhere around the place – so the carpark…
Finally got Small to bed…
but boy did it take some doing. I think my next project for the year is going to have to be sorting out his sleeping patterns – I’ve just spent two nights away from home, and I didn’t get any evening time without children to talk with adults. Hohum. Apart from that, the weekend was…
How much activity?
Forgot to blog yesterday that I’d had a call from a lady we met at group on Wednesday – Big and her daughter had really hit it off, in fact C had dissolved in tears when we left. So I gave her our phone number and asked her to call. We arranged to go swimming…
If I don't write some of this down
I’m never going to remember it all! First of all, the new mattress is lovely. Tim slept a full night on it – and I did alright even if Small did manage to crawl up on to it at one point and crash into me 😉 Pondering this morning on education and the point thereof,…
Much better all round.
Small and I had a lie-in, much needed after another bad night. I’m sure it’s his teeth, but he will not take anything for it, and indeed acts as if I’m trying to poison him throughout. Despite this we had a pretty good day all round. Big and Small played together quite well, and we…
By contrast, today really was quiet
I should have done some shopping. We’ve got friends coming round tomorrow, I should have done some tidying. I have lots of work to do, I should have done some of that. (Well, OK, I did do some). I also broke the blogring, but come on – did anyone notice? And it’s back now and…
