I have the wordpress app, and it’s actually rather good on my phone, so this is going to be easy.
Yesterday afternoon Nick and I decided ti get moving on our plans for our bedroom, looking for a sideboard for the end of our bed to put the tv and xbox on. I know there’s mixed reviews on havibg a tv in the bedroom, but we’re adults, and as the kids grow we need more private space. Doing something about it now is a big priority for me.
We realised our Ikea 5×5 shelf unit could be cut down and be roughly the same depth as everything we were looking at, and it’d save us £300. So we did that.
I’ve made myself a list of things to be getting on with when the kids go to school, msinly to help me feel calm. But as you can see, I clearly do need to work through the fibre. It is taking over! In future I think I’ll be buying pre processed fibre to spin, because while interesting, the process has been arduous and not that much fun.
My mum sent me this photo of someone who thinks he’s getting this for Christmas 😂
Yesterday we also went for a lovely muddy walk in the woods to get everyone out and excercised and aired. It’s been a little while since we’ve been to these woods. I have a feeling when the days get longer I might keeo wellies in the car for after school walks. Its already gettinh gloomy here at 3:33, so it might be a bit tricky at the moment.
Today we’ve taken the day off doing any “home school” or preparations for school (so much shopping to be done!) We popped out swimming for a couple of hours and had a lovely time.
The rest of the week will probably be spent gathering uniform, shoes, bags, lunchboxes. We also have some fun things to do that I hope will create happy memories. (Maybe the kids will also love the shopping, but past experience tells me otherwise!)
