We like our game cube. Just to buck the trend a little, i got the Mario Kart bundle, so ours is silver. But that meant half price bongos. Not a great deal else has happened aside from a spectacular row between Max and i. We do sulk occasionally but we rarely yell; today we yelled. […]

I must just blog my dream, if only because appearing in Jan and my dreams will probably make Alison feel, well, special ;~) I had this odd dream that Alison Portico had appeared on the front cover of the Daily Mirror under the headline “Stop the Momma” ranting about lack of funding for home educators. […]

Mmmmmm….i LIKE Centerparcs. And just so all my holiday gatecrashers feel loved, Max decided he preferred it this year with lots of people around. Which i would say was quite a result :~) We had a great week, easily as nice if not more so than last year. The girls had really come on in […]

When it doubt, make sure lots of chocolate is available. Today was pretty much okay actually. Josie had a little milestone of being put into her crib at midnight, “just to see what happened” and slept through to 8.30am in it! So, today. Decided we needed a mini break and as we had our local […]

It’s (i suppose) the duty of a blogger to report the good, the bad and the ugly. And today was ugly. I’m quite sure it was my fault; i’ve been ratty and snarly and hormonal most of the day and i’ve growled and grumbled like a pregnant person. It just felt as if all the […]

Teacher suspended over “grooming” allegations. This is the school that Fran would be going to next year, in time for year 3. She and Maddy would already be in its infants school if they were not HE. Sigh… *must agree to HEers being on a database in order to protect our oh so vulnerable children […]

Sigh. How come when you finally get a child using some letter blends, the first thing they do is creat a word you’d rather they didn’t use in front of Great Gran? Along with the week so far, its been an odd, slightly nondescript day really, not unpleasant, just rather hard to get going. the […]

I just got books from Tanglewood, Our Island Story, the Blue and Red Fairy books, Burgess Bird Book, Robin Hood, King Arthur and George and the Dragon. They are lovely. Yumm yummm yummmm. And totaly justifiable because it saves me printing things out too!!!!

Rabbit food??? She’ll eat anything, honestly… its a bugger having a camera with a zoom you have to hold on. I hope they hurry up with the replacement.

I’ve got stuff to do so i won’t pontificate too much today :~) Not too much of the list got done today. I did manage to do some bead mixes which probably counted as education as i got Fran to do all the weighing out for me. So that provoked conversations about grammes, weighing out […]
