Today has been a definite “on the up” day; we’ve had a decent stab at normals, done some EC, beaded-merrily and made candles.
The candle making was great, very therapeutic and after my bawl out last week, everyone really tried hard.
Of course, i was moaning about them being ungrateful yesterday wasn’t i? This morning Fran came to ask how much pocketmoney everyone had in their book; i duly told them and heard much conversation taking place around the computer. Although i played very dumb, it was clear they had ordered me a beanie each from a website ready for Mothers Day; i was called in to press the paypal button 🙂 Aw 🙂
We’ve had a lovely family tea, with Josie reducing us to hysterics by dipping her biscuit in Maddy’s chocolate yoghurt every time Maddy looked away and popping a tomato in her mouth, to her own great astonishment. She is becoming such a monkey; she distributed about 4000 hama beads on the floor today 🙄
And all my plans for tomorrow are scuppered by a late bead delivery – pah and argh.

And SB tidied her room tonight befor bed, when I mentioned we would have to do it tomorrow morning, without any nagging becuase we ‘were having visitors’ 🙂 And she did a really good job
chris F says
Ahhh, and yes, candles, been meaning to make some with SB ever since she was fascinated by watching someone at the living history day thing we went to last summer.

Good to see it was a good day for you, long may it carry on!
