{Camping} at kentwell. {Sewing} slightly frantically. {Running} out of battery.
De stuffocation and a digital detox.
It’s Kentwell time. I’m not ready. I’m never ready. I trudge through my days frittering time away and then suddenly panic that the deadline is upon me. I don’t know why I do that. I think I’m getting worse at it, or maybe it’s just that there are more of us to get ready. (Where…

{reading} Mercedes Lackey From a High Tower (Elemental Masters). I do love this kind of fantasy, and it’s been a while since I’ve read one. Ripping yarn, nice bit of magic, fun characters. What’s not to like? {eating} a weird mix of various leftover stuff from the fridge and the freezer. Trying to clear out…

{getting up} far far too early. Big had a cadet day which required her to be in the next town, after her paper round, for 8.15. Which was going to be tight. And so of course I woke up at 6, did that horrible flail oh no I’ve slept in, and then realised that actually…

{Watching} Aladdin with the younger children (well OK, with Smallest, as Tigerboy fell asleep almost instantly, which made for a wonderful bedtime later). Then When Harry met Sally with Big because we can’t watch it with Small around and he’s off at Kentwell with Tim. {Reading} A God in ruins. Which I started a while…

{watching} Meet the Robinsons on netflix for familyfilmnight. Carefully chosen in the hope that Smallest would enjoy it, as for some reason she’s very anti family films at the moment. It worked. And the bonus was that the rest of us quite enjoyed it too, despite the painfully obvious plot holes. {reading} From Here to…

{drinking} a whole variety of different, calming teas. There’s a rather nice Green Tea with lemon and honey from Tetley, some glorious organic chamomile from Napiers Herbs, and a whole marvellous selection from Nothing but tea – I’m loving the Roiboos with a variety of different fruit flavours, particularly Raspberry. {enjoying} our first Kentwell outing…
Saturday Snippets 28th February 2015
{watching} Pretty in Pink. Which wasn’t what we cued up for family film night. We’d found some Adam Sandler comedy that we thought would do nicely, but when the time came Small was too busy with his game, so he went off with the DS and the small children as his audience, and we watched…
Sunday (snippets)
Yes yes, I know we already did this. But Sunday. A day of battling with the washing machine as it didn’t want to spin. Ended up taking the washing round to the laundrette to dry. At least I got a walk in the sun. And some time with the A to Z of you and…
Saturday snippets 24 January 2015
{watching} Jericho (just finished season 1) and Continuum (just started season 2). Netflix has really broadened my horizons. We had #familyfilmnight on Thursday, How to Train a Dragon 2. Big in particular seemed to really enjoy it 😉 {reading} Nightbird. Just started it. Is drawing me in nicely though. And a good contrast to the…
