Keep it simple, stupid.

July 26, 2005 by

In a minute i am going to indulge myself in a new game on the computer (Rollercoaster Tycoon or Wildlife Park?) but first i will blog the pittance that was most of today.

Fran loved the idea of the Scotland Lapbook and she and i worked together intermittantly on it. Maddy threw a strop because it wasn’t about Egypt and no amount of trying to explain i wanted to do one to learn how to do them would persuade her. Really she wanted more help i think but i struggled with the patience.

Js was fabulous with them, they enjoyed her very much. I was tired and grumpy from a bad, fretful, nightmary nights sleep. Ammi played Dora all day, i think. Maddy did do stuff but i can’t remember what and she was incredibly resistant to me all day. Fran read a book of nursery rhymes the HV brought and did various other bits. I did find them all playing Henry VIII and Jane Seymour at bedtime though – funny girls.

But really, i’ll write today off.

I did buy my laptop though. 😀

Fran has just knocked a tooth out, climbing up a doorframe, something i have told her not to do about 400 times. Fortunately it was a wobbly top one. 🙄
